Group paragliding in Bali means flying one passenger per pilot in a planned sequence, not all at once: a tandem wing carries one guest plus one licensed pilot, so a party of 6-10 needs a booked slot order, individual body weights on file (operators cap 40-110 kg), and one point of contact for the whole group. Klook already requires a 2-person minimum for its Timbis package — groups above that size need real coordination, not a walk-up booking.
How Does a Group Paragliding Booking Actually Work in Bali?
Every operator on the Bukit Peninsula flies tandem: one wing, one pilot, one guest — there is no group flight where several people go up together. What changes for a group is the queue. Bali Paragliding Tours publishes an on-site time of 30-35 minutes per 15-minute flight, and that per-person window is what a group multiplies. JHG plans the sequence with the operator before your date is confirmed, so wait time is known in advance, not discovered on the cliff at Timbis.
How Many People Can Fly in One Slot?
| Group size | Estimated on-site time (15-min flights, one pilot rotation) | Planning note |
|---|---|---|
| 2-3 | Roughly 1-1.5 hours | Meets Klook’s published 2-person minimum for its Timbis package |
| 4-6 | Roughly 2-3 hours | Book one hotel pickup zone together to avoid staggered transfers |
| 7-10 | Roughly 3.5-5 hours | Confirm how many pilots are rostered that afternoon before locking the date |
| 10+ | Usually split into two bookings | Most Bukit sites fly inside an 11:00-17:00 window, so large parties often get an early slot and a later slot |
These figures come from Bali Paragliding Tours’ own published on-site-time range. Actual queue speed depends on how many pilots the operator has flying that day — JHG confirms this before you commit; we do not control operator staffing and will not promise a faster queue than the operator itself commits to.
What Does a Group Paragliding Package Cost in Bali?
Published per-person rates vary by operator, duration and what is bundled in. As of September 2026:
| Operator | Duration | Published price | What’s included |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timbis Paragliding (BUMDA Desa Adat Kutuh) | 15 minutes | USD 110 per person | Insurance, photos and video, government tax, free pickup around Kuta, Jimbaran, Nusa Dua and Uluwatu |
| Bali Paragliding Tours | 15 or 30 minutes | IDR 850,000 – 1,800,000 | Action camera on a selfie stick, insurance; transport and meals not included |
| Klook (Timbis Beach package) | 10 minutes, min. 2 pax | From USD 85.89 per person | Round-trip transfer, insurance, photo/video; zone surcharges apply (Canggu IDR 300,000/car, Ubud-Gianyar-Tabanan IDR 600,000/car) |
| RIUG Paragliding (via GetYourGuide) | Approx. 15 minutes | quoted on request | GoPro HERO9 loan; separate pricing for foreign visitors versus Indonesian/KITAS holders |
A Hotel Nikko Bali reseller article (26 April 2024) quoted a Timbis ticket at IDR 1,100,000 for 15 minutes with equipment, insurance, photos/video and a certificate; a 2026 reseller comparison showed that same rate against an online promotional rate, so “rack rate” versus “booked-ahead rate” is worth asking about. No operator here publishes a volume discount; a group saves by consolidating pickup into one zone and one duration.
How Do Family Bookings Work?
Age and weight windows differ by operator — plan a family group around the strictest limit in the party.
- Ages. Klook’s Timbis package runs age 5 up to under 66; Bali Paragliding Tours caps at 5-60; the Nikko-reseller Timbis ticket lists ages 5-65.
- Weight. Klook caps at 40-110 kg per person; Bali Paragliding Tours at 110 kg; the Nikko-reseller product states a maximum combined weight of 115 kg per flight, relevant when a light child flies alongside a heavier parent; RIUG caps just under 118 kg and excludes pregnancy and heart, epilepsy or kidney conditions.
- One wing, one passenger. A parent and child are never strapped onto the same tandem wing — each flies separately, with their own pilot and slot.
Send the desk each flyer’s age and weight with your request; that determines which operator and slot order fits your family.
Can We Book a Corporate or Incentive Outing at Timbis?
Yes, using the same slot-sequencing logic at larger scale. A 10-15 person incentive group should expect either one long afternoon booking with a confirmed pilot count, or a split across two blocks inside the flying window — most Bukit sites operate roughly 11:00-17:00 (RIUG’s own hours run 11:00-17:00 Tuesday-Sunday, 12:00-17:00 Monday). JHG requests a written quote covering headcount, duration, transfer zones and confirmed pilot rotation before your team commits a date.
What If Some of the Group Are Over the Weight Cap?
Tell the desk in advance, not at check-in. Weight caps exist because a wing is rated for a combined pilot-plus-passenger weight, and operators enforce them for safety. If part of your group exceeds the tightest cap among Klook (110 kg), Bali Paragliding Tours (110 kg) or the Nikko-reseller combined limit (115 kg), the desk checks which operator’s published limit — RIUG goes to just under 118 kg — actually fits before slotting that flyer into the sequence.
How Does Booking a Group Actually Work With the JHG Desk?
- Send your group brief — headcount, each flyer’s weight, preferred date, hotel zone and rough budget per person.
- The desk checks pilot availability with the licensed operator before quoting a slot sequence.
- You get a written group quote — duration options, published price, transfer zone and any surcharge.
- Pickup zones are consolidated into one collection point where possible.
- Slot order is confirmed, with a meeting time and flying order.
- You fly, and the operator hands over photos, video and certificates per its own package.
JHG is an independent booking and coordination desk, not a paragliding operator or pilot — every flight is arranged with a licensed Bukit Peninsula operator, and JHG does not fly, own or certify any aircraft or wing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can our whole group fly at the same time in Bali paragliding?
No. Every tandem flight is one pilot and one passenger on a single wing, so a group flies in a sequence, not together. Bali Paragliding Tours’ published on-site time is 30-35 minutes per 15-minute flight, which is the real multiplier for how long a group of six or eight spends on-site once check-in and harnessing per person are counted.
What is the minimum group size for a paragliding booking in Bali?
There is no universal minimum — a single traveler can book a tandem slot directly. Klook’s Timbis Beach package specifically requires a minimum of 2 people per booking. Larger groups of 6 or more benefit from a written quote through the JHG desk so pickup zones and slot order are planned before the date, rather than booked as separate individual tickets.
Can children join a group paragliding booking in Bali?
Most operators accept children from around age 5, subject to weight limits: the Nikko-reseller Timbis product lists ages 5-65 with a 115 kg combined weight per flight, and RIUG’s GetYourGuide listing excludes only pregnancy and certain medical conditions. A parent and child fly as two separate passengers on two separate wings, never together on one flight.
Do group bookings get a discounted rate for Bali paragliding?
None of the Bukit Peninsula operators referenced here — Timbis Paragliding, Bali Paragliding Tours, Klook’s listing or RIUG — publish a per-head volume discount as of September 2026. Groups manage cost by picking one operator and duration for the whole party and consolidating hotel pickup into a single zone rather than mixing bookings across operators.
How far ahead should we book a group paragliding slot in Bali?
Bali Paragliding Tours publishes a 12-hour cancellation notice on individual bookings, but a group of six or more needs longer lead time so the operator can confirm enough pilots are rostered for your date. Send your headcount and preferred date to the JHG desk as early as your itinerary allows, especially in the April-October dry season when demand at Timbis is highest.
