Soaring over the city from extreme heights, you'll experience a truly remarkable view of the ancient metropolis on skydiving tours in Athens.
Skydiving not only provides an adrenaline rush like no other, but it also gives you a bird's eye perspective of Athens that you can't get anywhere else.
With a professional instructor strapped to you at all times, you can concentrate on enjoying the exhilarating activity and admiring the cityscape from above.
Skydiving is without doubt the most exhilarating adventure sport in Athens if you're looking for something wild to try. There are a couple of different locations you can start from which both offer their own unique views.
Tandem skydiving tours take place just outside the city center where you'll be strapped to your instructor, ready to experience a serious thrill. You'll jump from a height of 3,500 meters and hurtle through the sky at adrenaline-spiking speeds of almost 220 kilometers per hour.
After approximately 45 seconds of freefall at this lightning pace, your parachute will open and you'll float gently above the city of Athens. From the air, you'll have a unique and unbeatable view of the city and its surrounding area.
If you want to experience even greater heights, this skydiving tour enables you to jump from over 4,200 meters. You'll travel approximately an hour north of Athens to make your jump, which gives you a varied view of the landscape in Greece.
For reassurance on this nail-biting excursion, you'll be secured to an instructor who will allow you to freefall for a minute before opening the parachute.
If you want to see aerial views in a more serene experience, why not try paragliding in Athens?

Your meeting point for skydiving tours in Athens is at the airport where your jump takes place. Depending on your excursion, this will either be Megara Airport, 20 minutes outside the city center, or Kopaida Airport, roughly an hour away.
Skydiving tours in Athens take roughly two hours from start to finish. While your jump lasts around 15 minutes, you'll take part in a safety briefing beforehand and have to fill in the necessary paperwork.
It also takes a few minutes to travel by plane to the correct altitude for your jump to take place.
Skydiving excursions in Athens take place throughout the day. The best time to participate in a jump is whenever you feel brave enough to!
Skydiving is an unforgettable experience and is sure to be the highlight of your Athens vacation. Consider booking your trip for your final day in the city.
Skydiving tours are extremely safe, and you'll be strapped to an experienced professional instructor at all times. It is, however, not recommended for pregnant travelers, those with vertigo or other health conditions to participate.
Children under 18 are allowed to take part in a skydiving tour but must have the consent of their parent or guardian. It is a requirement that all jumpers are at least 1.2 meters tall.
The timing of your skydiving trip in Athens may change slightly depending on the weather on the day. If the conditions make jumping impossible, you'll be offered a change of date or a full refund.
