Reviews FAQ

Does Skydive Arizona have good reviews?

Yes. Skydive Arizona has a 4.8 out of 5 rating on both Google and Tripadvisor. This page lists 1,475 Google reviews, 183 Tripadvisor reviews, 165 Yelp reviews, and 3,774 Facebook reviews—a combined total of 5,597 reviews and recommendations. Ratings and totals can change as new feedback is published.

Are these reviews only from first-time tandem students?

No. The reviews include first-time tandem students, repeat tandem customers, licensed skydivers, students working toward progression, event participants, families, and spectators. Skydive Arizona serves both people making one unforgettable jump and people who build years of skydiving around Eloy.

What do first-time skydivers mention most?

First-time tandem reviews frequently describe pre-jump nerves, the instructor’s personality, clear explanations, the flight to altitude, freefall, landing, and photos or video. Many also mention that the experience felt more manageable than they expected and that they wanted to jump again.

Do reviews mention weather delays or rescheduling?

Yes. Skydiving depends on suitable weather, and some reviewers describe delays or rescheduled jumps because of wind. Several of those reviews also explain how the team communicated the decision, helped with rescheduling, and kept the experience positive. A detailed review that includes both the inconvenience and the response can be more useful than a generic five-star comment.
