I had considered trying this many times as I come to Lebanon regularly and you can always see the paragliders in the sky near Jounieh. I finally went for it today and had an amazing time. There are a few paragliding companies in the area but Club Thermique sounded the most established and professional. All the staff speak English and were super friendly. They take you up from the office to the take off point (or you can go on the Teleferique) and i had a wait of only 10-15 minutes before we took off. It was amazing. Joseph was my paragliding partner and also spoke English very well and was amazing. I loved the experience from start to finish. There is also a Go Pro to capture the whole flight. thank you Club Thermique and Joseph, I hope to do it again on my next trip
