A group of friends and I saw these messages saying how great this place was so we decided to check it out. We came in from the street with souvenirs and bags, went to the front desk to check in where the receptionist was extremely rude and kept looking at us as if she didnt want to be bothered. We asked about the reduced admission since it was a group of 6 of us and we were going to be flying together. She told us to wait on the side for our turn- we waited about a half hour until they called us up to the front to pay. Then the two receptionists told us we couldnt go in because we had been drinking (even though we hadnt been) I believe they just assumed we were drinking because we had souvenir cups and we were a younger crowd. We offered to take breathalyzer or any other sobriety test they had even though we were obviously sober and it was a pretty ridiculous accusation. They told us it doesnt matter anyway because it was on camera that we had souvenir cups whether they were empty or not. So basically they wasted over a half hour of our time for nothing when they just couldve told us that from the beginning. RUDE RUDE RUDE- hope no one has an experience like ours. I have never ever written a bad review until today, but this one just had to be expressed. Guess Ill just stick to real skydiving; my experience with that was great...

Decided to bring my family here for my boys 16 birthday. Mom and the baby sat out. Myself 45, daughter 18, daughter 10, and the birthday boy 16 all flew. We were 1 hour early for our session so we hung out. The waiting areas are very corfortable with couches. There is a monitor in the waiting to showing the action in the room as people learn and fly. You can also walk up the steps and look down inside the room as sessions take place. With a quick briefing and video we were in. We had Jeramiah as our instructor. He could not have done a better job! Seriously, he was very informative, kind and fun. Jeramiah was awesome. He was great with my kids. Our little 10yr old girl was so stoked. He had her flying above his head, doing spins and stuff. Her face was full of joy flying around in there. Just awesome. And I appreciated his efforts to make us have a great time. They have this down to a science. We all left there with HUGE smiles sharing our experience all day. We will be back for sure.

I cant say enough good things about this place. Fantastic group of very professional and fun instructors. We have been to several locations but Vegas Indoor Skydiving has the BEST facility and the BEST instructors. As a parent I wanted safety, and my kids wanted unrestrained fun! We both got what we wanted right away. Both my kids have now done over 200 minutes (thank goodness for bulk rates!) and enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Leah is our favorite for her friendly, caring, enthusiastic and calm/helpful attitude, but they are all fantastic (shout outs to Zan, Levi, & Rob). They treat us like family - but dont worry - they treat everyone that way. We have brought friends and family to join in the fun and everyone has a blast. Weve seen kids three feet high and grandparents over the age of 80 do just fine and have a ball. My kids think its AWESOME and would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!

Our entire family went, including my 8-year-old and 5-year-old daughters and my husband and I (both 40). The instructors were extremely friendly, and knew what they were doing. They provided simple instruction which was easy to follow. In the wind tunnel, each person got 3 turns to fly and the instructor kept us in position and helped us do simple tricks if we wanted (spinning, going higher, flying with us). We ordered the video so the kids could show all their friends what they did. VERY IMPORTANT - MAKE RESERVATIONS IN ADVANCE. They fill up. You may want to even reserve for a second flight (only $40) because you will have so much fun, and their schedule is jam-packed. Location is convenient - you can cab it from the Strip. Its walkable from the Wynn or Circus Circus.

Its a lot of fun and the staff are very helpful, however the experience is limited by the chamber. The chamber design isnt good for new flyers, or flyers learning new techniques because if you float to the side you will fall down. Because of that the instructors have to baby you, and the fan operator has to keep you as low as possible- not a very liberating experience. Dont let me stop you from trying it- its amazing! But given the option I would start at a different facility.

Great experience. We were first timers and they did wonderful ensuring everyone was clear on what to do, comfortable with everything that was going on, and having a wonderful exciting experience. Very safe, very very fun, and I would love to go back. A bit more of a muscle workout than you would expect, so dont go in after a gym visit ;) and definitely dont hit the buffet before visiting. There are awesome lunch spots nearby so mid morning seems like a great time to visit

If you enjoy action oriented sports you just gotta give flying a try! The wonderful staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and they make you feel welcome throughout the entire experience. Actually, the people working at Indoor Skydiving are great people to be around. I’ve flown twice and the 2nd flight was even more fun than the first. This is so much more fun than the typical Vegas activities; I won’t visit Las Vegas again without going Indoor Skydiving!

Customer service was absolutely fantastic. The coaching was top notch (Im a licensed skydiver). Honestly what holds this place back is the wind tunnel itself, it needs to be upgraded. The wind isnt stable which makes it unrealistic compared to freefall. I recommend Vegas Indoor Skydiving anyways, if just for the fantastic experience and help from great coaches. Skydiving for real is of course much more fun, and not much more expensive.

Its a nice business and they do what they do well. I just wasnt much of a fan of the whole Indoor Skydiving thing...Was very difficult to tell what you were doing right or wrong and each person didnt get to "fly" more than maybe 90 seconds. Obviously without the ability to hear in the wind tunnel, a lot of the joy and the ability to communicate, beyond a couple of hand signals, go out the window.

My mother (56), sister (38) and I (36) enjoyed the indoor skydiving during a recent visit to Vegas on March 5th 2010. The staff was very nice and the training was thorough. In the end it all comes down to your coordination or lack there of in my case. It was a lot of fun. Dont forget to purchase a DVD so that you have lasting memories because your time in flight goes by so fast.

The instructor (Andy) was very energetic, helpful, and fun to work with. Their staffs were very friendly and courteous! The whole experience was amazing!! Its not scary at all, and I think everyone should try it out. DO remember to purchase the video! Its really fun to watch it agai at home! Tip: make a reservation in advance so you dont have to wait or get turn away.
