My wife and I planned to spend a few days in Hana while on our 25th anniversary. We saw a review for Hang Gliding Maui in the Maui Revealed book and immediately signed up for two one-hour flights. We booked over four months ahead of time, so we had over 100 days to wait and imagine what our time in... more

I went to Maui in middle of September. Maui coast view was beautiful and the highest point I got to go was 3500 feet above the ground. Armin gave some flight instruction including moving the glider to the right, left, up, and down. Taking off and landing was really quick and it was safe. more

Without a doubt, in the two weeks we spent on Maui, doing all kinds of activities, this one was the best. Being a motorcyclist, I already am the type to look for new trills, and this one was quite a fix; all the trill of riding, but through the air in three dimensions! My instructor Armin was terrific, and provides... more

Best thing since sliced-bread, and an incredible way to see part of the Maui paradise! I have taken hang-gliding instruction from Armin (owner-instructor) on two separate trips, and am looking forward to future visits. THE best thing to do when on Maui. Please don't miss it. more

I made arrangements by e-mail with Armin (the pilot for this Hang Gliding Maui adventure) and from the first note was impressed with not only his swift response time but his overwhelming generosity. Armin suggested my husband and I fly with him as part of his morning commute to get us to Hana where we would then rent a car... more

This was our first trip to Hawaii and we stayed about 5 days on each kauai & maui. We took a Blue Hawaiian Helicopter tour over Kauai (highly recommend too!), and that was my wife's favorite. However, I'd say that our Hang Glide Maui flight with Armin was likely my favorite. I don't even like flying on commercial planes, but... more

While honeymooning in Hawaii, I convinced my slightly height-fearing husband to experience a hang-gliding lesson with Armin in Hana. I had done this a few years previously and had been raving about it ever since,. He agreed to give it a try. Needless to say, it was an exhilirating experience. We both felt completely safe with the very experienced Armin... more

Not only is the experience awesome, but Armin is just a blast! Being of European origins, but having lived on Maui for decades, he is a perfect mix between reliable, dependable and professional and comfortably laid back, with just the right sense of humor. You feel so safe in his hands, that you can just kick back and totally enjoy... more

I have done a lot of fun things in Hawaii, but hang gliding with Armin in Maui takes the top spot! If you have not seen the beautiful Hana coast from the air, then you have not truly seen Hana. I have been on helicopter tours on the Big Island and Kauai, but the experience of power hang gliding was... more

We had arranged our whole trip to Maui around hang gliding flights for my husband and myself. AFTER we had received e-mail confirmation for a specific date and time with Armin, we booked our hotels and scheduled other activities around it. A week later we received an e-mail telling us that he would like to change our booking to two... more

Management response from
Arminator, Owner

These particular two 1hour flights were booked Feb. 16, 2009 and canceled by us Feb. 24, giving the customer more than a month notice,exactly 744 hours. (requested date was March 26). We offered to either reschedule the flights to a day prior or taking care of them on their next trip to Maui. We have always gone out and beyond...
