I would like to thank Alex and everyone at Sky-High Skydiving for making my 1st tandem jump something I'll remember forever. The whole team are amazing, they make you relaxed, explain everything from start to finish. This place is a must if your thinking of doing a skydive. They're like one big happy family that like to jump out of a plane at 15000ft 🪂.
I will definitely be back with my wife to jump again 🪂🪂🪂.

I completed my 15,000ft Tandem Skydive yesterday with ‘Dave’ as my instructor. He was amazing and very helpful throughout the training and jump. Thank you very much Dave and Sky High Skydiving Team for making this my lifetime memory. I highly recommend Sky High Skydiving. Incredible experience.
J. S.
As a bi-lateral amputee, I really wanted to do a tandem skydive and these guys made it all possible. From my first visit to the actual jump day I felt completely in safe hands. The skydive was absolutely awesome and I would recommend anyone to go and do this, it was a fantastic experience! Thank you Bryn and Nick for making it happen!
V. V.
Absolutely incredible experience. Had a timeslot of 10am and waited around until 4pm to actually jump so it might have been nice to be warned of this pre-booking but it was definitely worth the wait and the cafe is warm and welcoming. I booked the camera/video package which is 100% worth the money. I've re-watched the video about 20 times already with a huge smile on my face. Amazing, amazing, amazing!!
C. R.
First time skydiving today, absolutely loved every minute
The whole experience from arrival is very smooth and everyone is friendly
My instructor was Nathan and he was really chatty and cool which made it even easier and squashed any little nerves before takeoff
Can't recommend this enough, if you're in two minds, get it booked!
Thanks again Nathan and the rest of the team

I did my first tandem skydive yesterday at 15,000ft. I was due to skydive on the Sunday but the weather wasn't looking too promising and I got a call late Friday recommending I come along on the Saturday instead.
I arrived at 12pm (as instructed). People were jumping as I arrived, however not long after jumps were suspended due to wind. This was probably a good two hours but luckily weather on the ground wasn't too bad so it was nice to sit in the seating area. There was a nice, cheap cafe on site which kept me and my family topped up with tea all day.
When jumps continued and I was called we were fitted with harnesses and goggles (bring your own gloves.. I didn't and they cost a lot for branded gloves on site, though they are good quality!).
On the plane I was with my instructor (Bryn) who was really reassuring and kept checking I was OK. As he was one of the owners it also made me feel more relaxed knowing I was in good hands! He also kept adjusting my harness which I was happy about as I was confident I wouldn't fall out of it!! The plane ride itself was a bit unnerving as you just keep going up for what feels like an eternity!
Bryn explained exactly what was going to happen and what I needed to do when we left the plane. The freefall was great, though I did find it hard to breathe (I was doing quick shallow breaths). I had a cameraman (James) who had been filming me and the view on the way up and was with us all the way up to the parachute opening.
The whole thing was amazing and there were breathtaking views. I was quite happy that we had been a little delayed too as the sunset just added to it.
When it was all over and we got home i had already been sent the edited video!
Overall it was a great day and the team were extremely experienced and friendly. I'd happily go back again and hopefully will!
J. S.
What an amazong experience!
I did the 15,000 feet dive which was well worth the upgrade for double the free fall (about 50 seconds)
The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. My instructor was David who was great, very chatty and informative and James was the outdoor camera (he jumped out first and filmed the free fall as well as some before and after shots) and at the end a great 6 minute video was done which was epic
If anyone was ever thinking about doing one I cant recommend this place enough and would simply say book it (and the 15,000 feet dive)
N.
Absolutely unexplainable how amazing skydiving was with Sky-High Skydiving, I had probably the best instructor I could've had he was full of energy, enthusiastic and chatty. 10/10 experience, definitely going to be returning in the coming months to do the 15,000ft next time! Hopefully I get the same instructor
M. A.
Jumped 2 weeks ago and going again in 2 weeks. Will be my 3rd time here. Instructors are amazing and very calming, talk to you all the way down and let you know what’s happening, very easy going people and very welcoming, trying to make your experience as good as possible. Highly recommend
L. C.
Absolutely amazing, the best experience ever, they look after you so well. Recommend this tandem skydive in Durham to all age groups. 👌
D. F.
I would like to thank everyone at Sky-High Skydiving for a wonderful experience in making my 1st tandem jump, in particular Ally my instructor and Charlie for the excellent camera work, memories to watch over and over again. A fantastic time from start to finish and well looked after by everyone in the team. Thank you again.
S. D.
Intense, terrifying, awesome and altogether amazing. The biggest rush I've ever had!
The video is expensive but get one of the options or you will regret it later. And do the 15k.
A great setup and very pleasant, helpful and professional staff.
Gulp! I have a £50 off voucher for the next one.
S. C.
Amazing tandem experience. Top team, professional and warn. Thank you Becky, Nicky and all the team. Lewis Young, you're the best instructor. I'll never forget that great day. I love Sky-High Skydiving. We'll see again.
J. M.
It was my first time sky diving on saturday at 15,000 ft and I absolutely loved every minute of it. I couldn't thank my instructor Ally and cameraman Charlie enough for keeping me so calm and relaxed and made the whole experience amazing 😁. Carnt wait to do it again one day!
C. H.
Top class experience from start to finish. Great team and tandem partner today ! Highly recommend for any nervous first timers.
辛.
Such a wonderful experience. I was a little bit scared before going, but the stuff there was really nice and made me feel safe. Thx Alex and cameraman James!
O. M.
I did my first ever tandem here last weekend. The waiting times are long, and as they say in their T&C you have to prepare to spend hours there, and not only because of the weather.
However the skydive was so amazing I forgot everything before that.
I have already booked my next one, this time closer to where I live, and I can't wait for it.
Many thanks to Dave and James for an amazing dive and some epic pictures. They were so calm and made me feel at ease ans safe and had a great time.
W. R.
My son and I both did a tandem sky-dive from 15,000 feet. From booking in there was quite a wait until we actually jumped but this is understandable given how popular it was. The training is straightforward and Nick, my dive partner, was very re-assuring from the moment we met to when we landed. Overall it was a great/surreal experience and one I would definitely do again. Indeed my wife who is not naturally someone who enjoys thrill rides/experiences has said she would also do it.
e. p.
Hello, I would just like to say what a truly, fabulous time my son, daughter and myself had jumping out at 15000ft last Saturday. My son, Jack celebrated his 21st birthday with a jump and he really enjoyed his experience. My daughter, Laura, though very nervous also enjoyed the experience tremendously! I thought it was the most exhilarating experience ever, my instructor, Alex was just so professional, friendly and reassuring. I found the whole team so very helpful and lovely. Thank you so very much for making my son's 21st birthday so memorable!
l. h.
Amazing experience! The staff were all kind and super helpful. My instructor was Ally who was very calm and collected and I had full confidence in him. Followed by James the cameraman who was lovely. They were both chatty, enthusiastic and gave me the perfect first experience at skydiving! James got absolutely mega videos too!
N. J.
Amazing experience! I’d been a little nervous about the skydive (as expected) but from the get-go I felt very safe and secure. It was a very quick turn around which also really helped the experience as it gave less waiting around time thinking about the drop. My instructor, Ally was really helpful and made me feel very safe. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the free fall part and how beautiful the views were once the parachute had been deployed. I’m gutted I didn’t pay the extra for a camera but I 100% intend on doing the experience again and this time I’ll definitely go all out! Thank you for a great morning!
E. H.
Had a fantastic 15,000 feet tandem skydive yesterday. The set up is excellent and the staff are friendly and professional. I felt I was in safe hands. Ally was my instructor and he made me feel relaxed even when I jumped out of the plane. I had confidence in him so my nerves stayed away.
It was my first skydive and the adrenaline rush was off the scale. I also raised £920 for Maggie’s in the process. What a fantastic memory. Don’t hesitate to give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.
A big thank you to all the staff who help create a memory you will never forget.
L. T.
Wow!
What can I say? Absolute amazing service from arriving,to jumping,to leaving.
The whole team make you extremely welcome and put any fears you may have, aside, to make this experience a truely incredible one!
Special shout out to Dave Taylor who was my trainer/instructor and also did my tandem jump with me....second to none!
Also the fantastic Blake who was my cameraman,capturing the whole event in magnificent footage,stills and video.
Keep up this incredible work guys!! Yous are amazing and definitely recommend anyone to try it...and I am 50 years old 🤣🪂🪂
Thanks, Lynn
K. D.
Yesterday I jumped from 15,000 feet along with my son. What can I say? Absolutely brilliant experience with an amazing, friendly and professional team!
My instructor was Alex Matei and he was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Both he, and my personal cameraman, Charlie, made sure I had the best possible experience and made unforgettable memories!
Everyone at Sky-High is super friendly and welcoming from the second you enter the reception area. We had tasty food and drinks in the cafe whilst waiting for the weather to pick up enough for us to jump. All in all, I thoroughly recommend for everyone to try skydiving at least once and without a shadow of doubt, book in at Sky-High Skydiving ~ you won't regret it!!
T. C.
I done my first tandem skydive today and I honestly can't recommend Sky-High Skydiving enough. The entire team are so friendly and professional. I went for the gold package jumping from 15000 feet with the video/photo package, certainly worth the extra money. James and Ally were amazing, they made me feel at ease and captured my whole experience wonderfully, for that I am so grateful. Everyone needs to experience a skydive, so take that plunge and get one booked with these amazing guys.
J. L.
Had a fantastic experience made all the better by the staff. From the fantastic camera team (well worth going all out for the Gold package) to the tandem instructors (big shout out to Nathan who was brilliant!!) and all involved.
Huge thanks also to Mark for organising a fantastic send off for my dad with an ashes drop. Such a special occasion for the family and it was handled beautifully.
Couldn't recommend highly enough for anyone who wants to try out skydiving. Go 15,000ft you won't regret it!
K. P.
Myself, Mum & Brother all had the best time on Friday jumping at 15,000ft! (Thanks for getting us all on the same plane!!) the staff and instructors were all so welcoming! Special thanks to my instructor Nathan who was so lovely and made the whole experience even better! We will definitely be back! :) Katie, Belinda, Billy
A. C.
I done my first skydive yesterday and have never experienced anything like it in my life. I only done 10,000ft but next time will definitely do 15,000 :) I would like to thank all the staff at skyhigh skydiving especially Ant who made me feel really at ease and constantly reassured me and he also made it so much fun hes great. Also I would like to thank my lovely camera lady who I had on the day and I have forgot her name but I'm so grateful for the video and the pictures they are perfect
Thankyou again skyhigh skydiving I will certainly be back ! :)
L. B.
I was bought a 15,000ft tandem skydive for my birthday, the experience was amazing! Once you are allocated your instructor you are by their side like glue haha, but they go through every process of what they're doing and they couldn't keep you anymore up to date and prepared as they do, we free fell at 140mph, breathing wasn't as bad as I imagined but once that parachute was pulled, we just floated in the air and looking 360 taking in the scenery / views, you can see for miles! Absolutely breath-taking, I would absolutely highly recommend and I would 100% do it again, what a life experience
(There is toilets, a cafe and an outdoor seating area for visitors etc)
M. E.
I surprised the wife with a tandom 15,000 jump...It was on her bucket list (not mine!). The staff were amazing as I was a duffer when booking through the internet but was easily sorted after contacting the team through email. Now the wife wants to do it again and has threatened to get one for me!!! Took the dog, was drinking coffee whilst watching her come out as a tiny spec in the sky...Just brilliant!!!
S. S.
I took part in a charity skydive at Skyhigh skydiving and it literally took my breath away. I have always wanted to do a skydive and when the opportunity arose I knew I had to go for it. I wish I had done it sooner. It was the most incredible experience ever.
Things to know, we didn't wear coveralls so be prepared to get a grassy bum as you land. I wore Leggings and a t shirt. It was a warm day and I didn't feel the cold. But travelling at 120mph on a cool day will definitely be felt!
I upgraded my jump from 10,000 to 15,000 feet and I am so pleased! This meant I had around a minute of free falling before the parachute opened.
My jump was a tandem and I was supported my Ali. He was the calmest person I've met in a long time. He really put me at ease and explained everything. The other person who made my day was Liam. He was the videographer who jumped with me to record the jump and take awesome photos. Again, if you only plan on jumping once, I would recommend the HD package. No hand held cams and the guys are great at capturing your skydive.
In terms of covid, be prepared you're in a plane on a bench seat, sandwiched between around 12 other people. It is cosy. But trust me, as you sit for 15 mins making your way up to the clouds, covid is the last thing on your mind.
I would recommend anyone to try it - you won't regret it! I'm already looking at booking another one 🛩️
M. B.
Came here today for our 12th anniversary, an absolutely incredible experience and a wonderful team! Big shout out to Byran & Ally for making us feel comfortable & safe throughout! Will definitely be returning! Highly recommend the 15,000 ft skydive. Unreal! (Wear long sleeves). Thank you so much! Madeline & Dominic X
L.
Many thanks to my instructor, friendly and handsome Ali! (I'm not sure if the name is spelled correctly, but the pronunciation should be the same.) I mustered the courage to take my first skydiving challenge before graduation from university. Ali gave me a great skydiving experience! And my cameraman, I don't know what his name is, he's a cool guy who looks a little bit like younger Leonardo. I am very lucky to partner with these two friends, which gives me a new experience in Durham! Thank you very much!
s. m.
By far the best experience of my life, would recommend this to anyone, the staff there are amazing and talk you through everything you want and need to know, i will be back before long for my next one.
l. &. c. p.
Me and my son have just do the 10,000ft tandem jump and absolutely loved it. The staff are really friendly and know their stuff and really put you at ease. Big thanks in particular to our instructors Nathan and David. Will definitely go up again
M. C.
Completed a 1500ft tandem Skydive as a birthday surprise. (Just aswell it was a surprise as I would never dream of booking this myself). Dave was my instructor and I cannot thank him enough. He made me feel safe and confident throughout the whole process. Such a wonderful experience. Cannot recommend high enough.
J. L.
Absolutely incredible. Booked as a final holiday stop after touring Scotland and despite the first time being on a plane in over a year the team at Sky-High were some of the most chilled but disciplined people I've ever met. I proposed to my partner when we hit the ground and they went out of their way to assist any way they could. They've provided us with memories to share with our future kids and I couldn't be happier with how the day went. 15,000 feet, a once in a lifetime for some and a true adventure I'd highly recommend!
A. W.
This weekend I did my first ever Tandem Skydive at 15,000ft (because if you're going to do it, go big) and it was INCREDIBLE. I was paired with Dave and had Liam as my cameraman, both we're so friendly, put me at ease and mostly made it as fun as possible. Their relaxed nature and jokes make you feel so comfortable that you almost forget what you're doing and how high you are, any worries you may have had before go out the window and you just enjoy it.
I absolutely loved it, the thrill is insane, Dave even helped me do some spins holding the handles myself (with him) which was crazy fun. Dave and Liam went out of their way to make sure I had the best time I could, and make it as memorable as possible. I also thoroughly recommend getting a video package, it's so worth it.
Something i'll never forget, so thank you Dave and Liam!
I will 100% be back :)
N. B.
Had the best experience that i will never forget.
I was so nervous that i could hardly speak at times but a massive thank you to my instructor who made me feel safe and calmer. All the staff was amazing and had good banter from fitting our harness. I did the 10,000 but 100% want to go back to do the 15.000
E. C.
It was an amazing experience and I really enjoyed it and Dave who jumped with me and Liam who recorded my skydive where amazing and welcoming. They made me feel really safe from start to finish and I would recommend to go skydive to anyone. It was so much fun and I can’t wait to do it again.
K. J.
The most unbelievable experience made even better by amazing, friendly staff. I jumped from 15,000 feet with Nathan and can’t thank him enough for making my experience unforgettable. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for an incredible experience!
P. C.
Absolutely brilliant experience the staff are so friendly and helpful, my instructor Nick put me at ease and I felt less nervous than I thought I would be.
Cameraman Dylan done a great job in making the whole experience a once in a lifetime opportunity and capturing the moment.
A. Z.

J. C.
Amazing experience! I jumped with Any who was funny, put me at ease, explained each step of the process and made it such a memorable event. Highly recommend this company. Nothing was difficult. I felt safe during the whole thing
C. F.
Amazing day! Amazing experience! And the staff just make it that much better. But someone tell Dave to stop spinning around so much with the parachutes hahah Definitely worth the travel from Scotland and would recommend to anyone!
G. D.
Absolutely amazing!! Everyone should try at least one in their lives, if they can of course. Staff here is so friendly so strongly recommended.
S. L. O.
Had the best first skydive experience on Saturday. I was lucky enough to jump in tandem Bryn who looked after me like a champ and is an absolute legend. High recommend and would definitely come back.
S. J. P.
I did skydiving as a surprise gift for my 40th birthday from my lovely husband, which I recieved 2 hours before i was due skydive!! Wanted to do it for years and finally got my wish, I had Dave as my instructor and Liam as cameraman, they were both brilliant with me as I explained that I'm hard of hearing, in felt comfortable and happy, they both talked through everything to me, answered my questions, even up in the sky!! Well recommend this, such an amazing experience, thank you Dave and Liam😊
The video and pictures are superb quality too👍
B. R.
Went for my birthday present, staff were very welcoming and friendly, luckily was a clear sunny day so the views were amazing had a fantastic day and a shout out to my instructor and tandem jump partner Ally for keeping me relaxed. That's another crossed off my bucket list. 😀
L. B.
A truely amazing experience. Thank you to Nathan who was my instructor on the day; helping me achieve my goal and making the most of my incredible sky dive. Thank you to my camera man who captured it perfectly so I can treasure the memory of the experience. Thank you to all of the team who were very friendly and supportive. I would definetely reccommend and hopefully be back again soon.
Also just to add the cafe is reasonably priced with very tasty home made food.
T. T.
Best day of my life!!! I've wanted to skydive for years and finally got the time and money to do it. So glad I picked Skyhigh Skydiving as they really made an unforgettable day. I did a 15,000 feet dive and paid extra to have it filmed and couldn't be happier. Dave my instructor really knew his stuff and helped get the most out of the experience (thanks so much dave) I will definitely be back next year, I can't stop watching my video!! Unbelievable Jeff
L. W.
Jumped from 15000 ft. First time ever. Dave was my instructor and James on video. Absolutely fantastic experience. So professional and a credit to the centre. I’d recommend to anyone. Thankyou for a fantastic day.
C. T.
Amazing experience!
I did a charity skydive and these guys looked after me so well, I can’t believe I didn’t cry once out of fear but Mike made me feel so comfortable and safe! Will definitely be back!!!!
E. T.
Very friendly and professional. I wasn't jumping but had taken my son who was. Instructors all very chatty and knowledgeable. Jump slightly delayed due to windspeed but safety comes first. Tempted to give it a go myself now.
D. F.
I completed my first tandem skydive from 15000ft on Sunday what an amazing experience it was i would strongly recommend this place for anyone wanting to tick this off the bucket list.

T. F.
Unbelievable experience. Food was nice, staff were great, everyone was on a happy vibe!
I’d recommend the video package too.
Go on my instagram ArtisticTwist31 for part of the video.
The team created a professional looking video and had it sent to be in around a hour which was brilliant as I thought it could take a couple of days and just a wanted to share my experience with everyone asap!
Nathan was my tandem mandem .
What a guy.
The manager geezer too was funny. Great group of people.
Highly recommend.
A. D.
Skyhigh is definitely the best place to be to learn to skydive, tandem or just enjoy watching the landings.
Staff are the friendliest and coaches are lovely.
The Swoop Inn will offer refreshments and great food.
S. J.
First skydive done last week! And i loved it! I had booked for photos as well so had both Anthony and Dylan with me. They made me feel so comfortable for the whole thing and were just amazing! 5/5 for the whole experience and will definitely be back for another go!
Thanks guys
m. n.
Amazing even though I would not do it again Nathan went out of his way to help my skydive go smoothly , I lost my sister 5 years ago to melanoma and had a necklace on with her photo . Nathan placed it in his pocket so she was still with me . He was a lovely man , thank u so much Nathan x
P. R.
Booked with Omar a month ago who was spot on.
Cracking place, from the moment I got there I met Sally on the front desk who was very helpful. Next onto training with Ali and the dive with Dave... which was awesome. Dave was very informative and explained everything in detail. I also paid the extra for the outside cam which was done by Richie Bean and it was worth every penny. I need to mention Ash at the cafe who made me a great latte...
If you are thinking of a sky dive I 100% recommend this place.
I have to add i got over 100 pictures and a video.... here is 1 upside down 😎
S. C.
From start to finish, these guys were absolutely superb! This was my first jump, along with my sister and dad and they made it an unforgettable experience so thank you and keep up the amazing work, the guys and girls working there are a credit to the company!
m. k.
Done a tandem sky dive recently with these, it was an unbelievable experience! I jumped with Alex and he was a great guy very professional I felt in safe hands!
j. L.
I took part in a fundraising Skydive. All the staff are so friendly and are great at putting everyone at ease. Totally amazing experience and my instructor gave me clear instructions at all times. Thank you so much and I will be back, Jacqui
M. M.
Absolutely loved it!! Best experience ever!! Dave you are AWESOME!! Would highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking "hmm shall I" ...the answer will always be YES!! You won't regret it!!!! Still flying 😁👌🙏👏👏👏👏👏
R. S.
Today was my very 1st tandem skydive from 15,000ft. The adrenaline kicked in and the experience was incredible!
A big thank you must be mentioned for my amazing trainer Dave who guided me through the whole sky dive with expertise and a welcome slice of comedy, defiantly put me at ease and made the jump the best it could be!
If your thinking of booking DO IT!! You will not regret it ☺️🪂
T. S.
I had Dave for my first ever tandem jump from 15 000 feet, his calm yet focused nature made the whole experience feel so safe and so enjoyable. I would truly recommend this to anyone, I was terrified of the though before, but the second you jump out of the plane it is blissful.
Huge thanks to Sky High Skydiving!!!!
A. T.
A lot of people will say straight away, "I'm not jumping out of a plane", the team were really good and put you at ease and wasn't scary at all.
J. H.
Absolutely first class experience! I Tandem Jumped from 15,000ft for the charity 'MIND' and it was the greatest thing I ever did. The feeling of falling from the sky makes you feel so free, I loved it. My Tandem instructor was Danny and he was class. From start to finish he was so relaxed but professional. I think how relaxed he was made the whole situation so calm and I had utmost trust in Danny. I had Robert as my photographer and he is outstanding. I got video and over 100 stills. at first I only bought the Hand Cam and only had 10,000ft but I'm so glad I upgraded to the outside cam and decided to go that 5,000ft higher! Going from 15,000ft mean I was free falling for over 1 minute. I would recommend this to anyone the feeling almost feels like your dreaming.
Hats off to my Instructor Danny he was amazing. Also to my Photographer the skill it must take for still and videos is next level,
Also Thank you to all the staff at Sky High Skydiving they were great and so kind and helpful. Experiences like this wouldn't be the same without amazing staff and this place has it!
Thanks Guys!!
A. W.
I had the most amazing morning at Sky high diving! Decided to go to 15000ft instead of 10000 at the last minute and it was the best decision I’ve made… The team were all amazing especially my tandem partner Nathan. They created such a wonderful and calm atmosphere and made us all feel well looked after and safe. Could not recommend this enough, can’t wait to do it again in the future! Thank you you all again :)
R. H.
The best surprise yet !
Skydiving with Billy from 15000 ft! Thank you for the best experience, totally professional but even more fun 🤩 what an amazing job you have.
L. R.
100% worth it. Great experience & staff. Thanks to Ali for instructing & James for the video. All forms are done before so there’s minimal hanging about on the day waiting to jump and the video was emailed to me within a few hours. 10/10 would recommend.
C. O.
I bought this experience for my Husband's birthday pre Covid. They have been fantastic at Re arranging for weather conditions and covid restrictions and the amount of communication over the years waiting for it to be able to go ahead has been great too. My husband jumped today and is thrilled. We paid for the video which is incredible! Such good quality, well put together and an amazing opportunity for myself and our kids to see what he done too. All round fantastic experience. For any spectators, there's a little cafe inside so you can grab breakfast items or sandwiches, hot and cold drinks whilst you wait. You can eat in or take out too. Thank you to everyone involved, you've all made it memorable 🥰
L. T.
Amazing experience and fantastic staff. I would like to say that my tandem partner Nathan was amazing. He reassured me throughout and made it a very special experience. Everyone should try it.
S. S.
It’s was my first time skydiving and the whole experience was great from start to finish. Thank you to my instructor Ally Tebbutt and my camera man Liam Pyne who made this experience happen. They were very good and made sure I had a great time.
D. H.
Amazing experience with the Sky high team, they took good care of us and made our tandem skydive a truly memorable day ... Taking us from 15000ft to the ground can be daunting, Rob and the guys take all the fear out of the experience and you can truly enjoy it.

Excellent experience, did a 15000 ft tandem jump with Dave Taylor. My two sons jumped at the same time. Safety procedures spot on. Really enjoyed the whole thing. Thanks for the great day
T. B.
Awesome experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend paying for the video and 15000 feet jump giving you extra freefall time. I even got the chance to steer the parachute. Amazing all round.
J. B.
My first time tandom skydive from 15000 ft was an amazing experience that I would definately recommend!!!! Everyone is so nice and helpful especially if your nervous like I was. Special shout out to my instructor Dave and camera man Liam for an amazing experience!!!! 😄

This was amazing, start to finish. Professional, chill and super fun. I had the Welsh Wonder Ant as my super laid back tandem buddy and the marvelous tiege as my top notch camera woman. Get me back in that plane! Can't wait to go again!

My father John Lethbridge recently did a videoed parachute jump, in support of his charity, the Royal British Legion, as closure to his year in office as Mayor of Durham & Chair of Durham County Council 2018-2019. It was a great experience for him, his family came to support and watch. The instructors & staff were very special people and really looked after him. The video was so professionally done, great editing, music, I was really taken by surprise, it was world class. You will struggle very hard to find a parachute centre like this elsewhere, friendly, hugely experienced, right on our doorstep. We have much to be proud of here in the North East, including this amazing parachute centre.

I had the pleasure of jumping from 15,000ft today in aid of lab gym, to give back to a man that has helped so many people over the years with their mental health and also the charity work he dose for the town. I jumped with Dave and Liam who where amazing and made sure I felt comfortable all the way through. Thank you to the whole team at sky-high for making this memorable day one I will never forget.
E. N.
First tandem skydive today from 15,000ft. I was so nervous, but I loved it. My instructor was Lewis and he was so good, he calmed me, put me at ease and overall gave me a fantastic experience! Thank you!
D. S.
My first sky dive today. Was proper wikid. My instructor, Ally, made me feel comfortable and safe at all times. My partners instructor, Rob, was also an absolute gem. Highly recommend both instructors. Happy freefallings guys!
M.
I did my first ever skydive here and what a ride!! The staff were incredibly helpful, all smiles and answered all my question, offered advice for future jump. My tandem instructor was very memorable, funny guy don't think I could have asked for a better experience.
My only criticisms would be, the coffee is expensive what you get (not a full cup) and it was a pretty lengthy wait. Other than that, thumbs up and I'll definitely be coming back again.
M. V.
Totally awesome from start to finish! We did a family (4 of us) tandem skydive to celebrate Lewis’s 21st birthday. We opted for the 15000 foot drop and paid for the video package for Lewis, worth every penny. All the ground staff were excellent and explained everything that would happen. After a short training session we met our instructors who were brilliant and quickly put everyone at ease. After kitting up we had a short wait then we were boarding the aircraft and pretty soon were a altitude. Fantastic views in all directions, including down! A quick shuffle and we were in the doorway and then we were out and skydiving. If you’ve ever thought about trying it, stop thinking and get booking. Skyhigh skydiving were first class and thanks to my instructor, Dave for making the experience brilliant.
K. Y.
Absolutely fantastic, thanks Ally (tandem instructor) brilliant instructor, calm and confident.
If you haven't done a tandem jump, I cannot recommend it enough and this is the place to go, the views from 15000 feet were incredible, I will definitely be back. Thanks to all the team.
N. H.
I got the skydive for a surprise for my partner who was 50 on the day he jumped. It was the most awesome thing he had ever done. Thanks again to Nathan. Nice guy.
M. L.
WOW!!!!
AMAZING - fab staff, my instructor Andy and Alex my video man were outstanding. It was a fantastic experience- free fall, parachute, views.
I will be doing this again! Next year I'm hoping to train to Skydive alone.
Totally recommend, go on do it!

A. L.
What a lifetime experience, I would highly recommend. Thank you so much Nick for being my instructor. You've done a great job, and made me feel more relaxed and calm on my first jump. P.S. - the way I screamed is insane so I hope you're hearing is fine. Can't wait to try it again!

Amazing staff and fantastic experience from start to finish, very scary, but pleased I went through with it. Brilliant camera man and Andrew was brilliant trying to calm my screaming, highly recommend to all

Definitely will be back!
G. D.
Most amazing experience of my life, Dave my instructor was amazing too! Thanks Dave
R. R.
First ever skydive complete!! It was a belated 18th birthday gift, but totally worth the wait. Had the most amazing time today. The staff at reception were lovely and welcoming on arrival. Then, Billy and Dylan who I did the dive with made me feel so at ease and I loved sharing the experience with them. I will definitely be back again soon. Thanks guys :))))
N. B.
Great bunch of instructors thoroughly enjoyed myself,special experience.
Special thanks to Jola and Ant
Cheers
J. F.
It was absolutely terrifying, and if you don't equalise the pressure in your ears it can get quite uncomfortable but honestly I loved every second of the dive and the anticipation leading up to it. Being so close to the coast there are lovely views, the photography was amazing. I would love to do it again when I have a bit more money.
B. W.
Great staff amazing experience Dave was an amazing instructor had an amazing time 100% would love to go back

Completed my first 15000ft Skydive yesterday. It was for charity, Crohns and Colitis.
Absolutely fantastic experience. Really would recommend.
Thankyou to my Tandem instructor Dave, who was amazing from start to finish, making me feel at ease and relaxed. And Liam my camera man, who was lovely and friendly. The video and photos are incredible.
Can not wait to do it again
V. H.
Absolutely awesome!
Cant recommend these guys enough. It was a birthday gift and my first time but everyone you come into contact with is professional and also supportive. The whole process from start to finish was so easy and enjoyable. Would do it again tomorrow, hope to get back again soon! If you're looking at reviews and wondering if you should go here for your experience, you definitely should!
f. w. k. B.
Got this for my sons 16th birthday 🥳, absolutely fantastic and he was thrilled to have done it, brilliant day , thanks to all the friendly staff, the camera man was a bit scary mind !!!!
K. H.
FIRST RATE ORGANISATION:
Obvious thrills aside, I was most impressed by the polite staff and friendly atmosphere of this place. Everybody, from the cafe staff to the admin and instructing personnel were exceptional. I am particularly grateful to Ian, a true Scot, and Dillon, a very gifted skydiving camera-man. I even met a lovely bloke, Mr Evans (sorry I can't recall his first name), who turned-out to be the son of a former university lecturer of mine; an equally lovely bloke. A sincere thank you to everybody and I do hope to see you all again in the not to distant future.
j. t.
Fantastic! Wow, what an experience, staff superb, my tandem diving partner was awesome (Welsh lad) 11/10. Great venue, super excited to go back and dive again. Great facilities on site too.
D. T.
Now under new management and have made several obvious changes which bode well for the future . Not the best of times to take over during a world pandemic but both jumping and training are now well under way , socially distanced of course !
M. Q.
Occasionally found this place by google. Just had a life experience with instructor Dave, photographer Liam and the crew today. A great team, the bravest I think. There are sweet potato fries in the cafe bar, a surprise. Some tips for new comers:
1. If you don’t drive a car, stay near the place or book a taxi in advance if you come to skydiving originally.
2. Do a check list before you go, make sure you have everything ready: contacts, gloves.
3. Plan well for this experience
I am not gonna tell you how I knew.
A. H.
My 15,000 ft tandem jump with you guys was a great experience. All your staff are very friendly and professional. The weather was perfect. Many thanks to Ally for being my trainer. I will be doing it again, or find another charity to get another opportunity to jump again.
S. C.
Initially only attended with the parents to watch mum skydive but the envy set in and both me and dad wanted to do it too! On a whim decided to ask if they had any available spaces and the next thing, all the forms were signed and we were all scheduled on the first flight up 🙈 15,000ft, we were ready for ya!!
Not your typical Sunday and it was the most brilliant experience from start to finish. The staff were excellent and created a fab 'at ease' atmosphere.
Huge shout out to Antony (glad he was allowed out on day release) for being a class instructor, who, when I told him it was my second skydive, said we could do some free-falling and parachute spins. Totally amazing and still beaming - thank you✨
r. m.
Awesome tandem today with Nathan - thank you so much!! Great instructor, fab staff, best time ever❤️
That's me getting booked in for AFF ASAP🤣 You're 100% right, three tandems is too many - time to get qualified!
Can't wait to see you all again soon - 12/10 would recommend.

Jumped today for East Durham Veterans Trust. What a day! The jump was amazing, I choose 15000 instead and so glad I did! My instructor was Nick, hes great!
I'll definatly be back and I'd be very happy if I got Nick again :-) although I know all the instructors will be amazing at what they do. The only thing I'm regretting now is not doing it sooner! and not getting pics/video lol x
G. D.
I had the absolute time of my life today. Thank you to Nathan in particular for doing the tandem with me - I can't thank you enough. He went above and beyond his job role - chatting to me and putting me at ease, making sure I had the best experience possible. The experience was so good that I'm genuinely considering a career change to do skydiving professionally.
I. J.
Had an absolutely fantastic time skydiving with my instructor Bryn - would 100% jump there again!
D. M.
Absolutely epic experience yesterday on my first tandem jump.
My instructor the 'Welsh wonder' Ant was incredible and definitely put me at ease - although could have punched him at times with the 'work experience' jokes 🤣.
Would 100% recommend anyone to give it a go. Great day!
I. x. B. x. I.

Excellent experience, Ant was a fantastic instructor, couldn't fault him. Only negative was the long wait down to poor admin.
The actual skydive was very professional and a fantastic experience. Do it!!
D. G.
I was bought the tandem skydive as a 30th birthday present from my auntie and its one of the best experiences in my life, top of the bucket list.

Big thanks to all the staff and couldn't of got a better instructor to do it with,felt in safe hands immediately with Rob so thanks for keeping me alive and a big thanks to my auntie Ann!! Since I've done it with my pal John we are booking up again very soon and cupple of of other friends too.

A really good set up with friendly staff who know what they are doing. A great way to fundraise and easy to bolt on a video for yourself as well.
Thanks to Dave for strapping me in like a bag of spuds.... and to Dylan for his in flight video skills.
Highly recommend these guys!!!
R. R.
If you want to go Sky Diving I would recommend this place & everyone is so friendly 😊

Thanks so much for an amazing day. Dave was an awesome instructor and really made me feel at ease before and during the jump. He has excellent knowledge of safety procedures and makes the dive as fun as possible! Make sure you get Dave!
D. L.
I did my first skydive here last Saturday and it was the experience of a lifetime!
Me and my cousin each did a tandem skydive to raise money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association in memory of my Dad who we lost last November, we've raised over £2400 between us and I'm over the moon that we did it!
All the staff are fantastic, I felt completely looked after and would absolutely do it again!
Huge thanks to Dave my instructor for keeping me calm, making me laugh and keeping me alive! Not forgetting Teej - she is an absolute superstar and created an amazing video of my jump, happy belated birthday for Saturday Teej!
Thank you all once again, one day I'll be back and wish I could do it all over again this weekend!
Q. L.
It’s a great experience, many thanks to my instructor Nick and cameraman Alex, friendly, folksy and professional
J. B.
50 stars from me for sure. Excellent from start to finish.
As other reviewers have said, friendly laid back vibe, ultra professional and 100% safety orientated. Staff were so helpful but of course extra special thanks to Anthony my instructor who couldn't have done more to put me at my ease.
Everything I had to do was clearly and carefully explained, albeit with a wicked Welsh sense of humour (have you really got a Metallica tattoo on your ankle?) Of course when I discovered Anthony was a heavy metaller I knew I was in safe hands .
Brilliant experience all round thanks everyone and keep on rockin Anthony.!
i.
Just done a Tandem Free Fall today and all I can say is it's an experience that everyone should try at least once. Absolute amazing and the rush from free falling is unreal. Big thanks to my instructor Ally, hope I got your name right mate, was absolute spot on and made me feel comfortable and just told me to enjoy it. Thanks again mate. Definitely the place to go and would recommend SKY HIGH SKYDIVING to anyone. Thank you
s. k.
Did a charity skydive here yesterday. Fabulous experience, utterly thrilling, but crucially I felt safe and well looked after, my instructor was absolutely brilliant and it made the whole thing so easy and enjoyable. I will definitely be back for another jump!
S. W.
I have just completed a tandem skydive to raise money for Diabetes UK. Wow - what an incredible experience, the feeling of freefalling from 15000ft is awesome. All the staff were professional, warm and friendly and a special mention for Nick my instructor who really made the jump special. I would highly recommend skydiving with Sky High Skydiving.
S. A.
Thank you so much for a great time and a fantastic experience yesterday, just would like to thank Ant Andrews (instructor) for the great photos and most of all his patience as he put me at ease and made me smile all the time. Also would like to thank Liam Pyne for the smashing video he took. All the best, kind regards Stella Austin. 🛩️🪂
P. C.
Booked a tandem skydive for my wife’s 40th, her instructor Paul was awesome. Made her feel completely safe through the whole experience, all staff are friendly and professional. A very well run organisation. She enjoyed herself so much she was looking at booking a second jump in the car home. Highly recommended.
R. B.
A massive thank you to the directors for giving multiple jumps to charities.
I jumped for Gateshead Health Foundation Trust health and well-being fund charity- MASSIVE shout out for the staff who continue to work tirelessly for patients.
BEX sorted the logistics of our jumping schedule/booking whilst doing lots of other roles across the site- and with a smile! Thanks Bex!
The TRAINERS were fun , kind, reassuring and specific with advice.Thanks!
And NICK was fabulous as my tandem jumper… I felt completely confident in his skills so was able to thoroughly enjoy the descent- absolutely fantastic…..such fun….so very exhilarating. Nick was wonderful and obviously is super skilled and experienced…. Wonderful experience I’d recommend to anyone who likes that sort of thing!!
P. W.
You can expect only the best from this place.
You will be welcomed by a awesome and kind people at the reception and then it can only get better and better ..
Great place and great people who create an amazing atmosphere,
First Class instructors provide amazing training and safety in the most professional way possible.
Skydiving is accompanied by understandable stress, Sky-High team can relieve this stress and they will make sure that this day will brings as much positive energy as possible.
Not only the instructors deserve attention, but also the cameramen (Connor / Joe) and Paul, who will ensure that your wonderful day is captured and edited in the best quality.
Well-equipped food facility will satisfy everyone, the service is EXCELLENT and they run a cafe at the highest level.
I am sure that everyone who visits this place will feel incredible energy from the very first visit.
Well deserved Respect and Thanks go also to the team that packs the parachutes, you are doing an EXCELLENT job.
(After all, as well it is thanks to you that jumping brings so much joy .. :P )
High Five also to all other member of staff who creating this amazing place.
Thank you all, thanks to you my dream turned into a passion.

Big powerful aircraft to 15k in just a few minutes. Very nicely rennovated cafe and bar and friendly tandem instructors and camera flyers.
R.
I had my first jump Saturday, and it was an amazing experience. Billy, my instructor was very supportive the whole time and his positivity made the experience so pleasant. The whole staff is so so friendly, the receptionist Mary had such a lovely attitude when I came in, and Connor captured the moments so beautifully. I’ll definitely come back.

First tandem skydive today. I was extremely nervous but my instructor Rob did a brilliant job of putting me at ease (as best as is humanly possible). The other staff were all excellent. I went with my 16yo son, sat next him on the plane, and his instructor was really funny the whole time which made things a lot less stressful. Absolutely recommend Sky-High Skydiving.
m.
The team here are absolutely amazing it was my first skydive 🪂 and first time on a plane ✈️. Ally was my instructor he kept me calm and I felt completely safe with him and Liam camera man both of them are brilliant I felt comfortable and safe the full time . Great team and thank you ! 😊

Done my first sky dive today and had an amazing experience. From start to finish everything was good.

Would recommend anyone thinking of doing this to go ahead it is a once in a lifetime experience. Thanks for Danny and everyone at the sky dive team.
d. g.
Myself and my daughter did a skydive at the beginning of August. Although I was slightly nervous Nick and Ali did a brilliant job at keeping us calm and enjoy the whole of the experience. We raised money for the charity Mind and definitely recommend anyone to do a skydive at Durham. 👍

REPLY TO A REPLY:
I didn't deduct any stars because of the wait time, however this did contribute to the experience being so-so. While it does say we're expected to be with you for the day, I struggle to understand why.... if you're managing bookings, and each jump time from take off is around 20-30 mins, and its a clear day..... why such delays? You're asking people to turn up at arrival times for what reason? 3 other jumpers on the day who had arrival times of 12pm all said the same thing. When you go on holiday its "advised" to arrive 2hrs before a flight, which has a dedicated take off time. Not sure how you can compare a sky dive and an airport. Airlines don't say "turn up at 6am and we may take off at 12pm, but this could be 3pm, please expect to be in the waiting lounge all day". Leg straps...... do you think I approached the plane in pain????? What a daft thing to imply. Obviously when the kit was put on I didn't know they were too tight until I was plummeting to the ground at 125mph. Surely your staff would know what's too tight and what isn't? I jumped with you 3 years ago and it was spot on.
I think I'll jump with Bridlington next time. While I appreciate your reply, it does feel like (both over email, call and a review) you're quite defensive and dismissive when someone points out the negatives.
Bit of a farce booking to start with. Got booked for a 12pm attendance on a day that was clear blue skies. Yet didn't jump until 3.40. No updates or anything. Not sure why we had attendance times if jump times are 3.30hrs later with induction times only 15mins long.
Leg straps were on way too tight. Too late to sort out when you're 15k in the air.
Leg straps ruined my jump. Jumped before and this wasn't a problem.
I've jumped in the past with Sky High and was massively impressed, but massively let down this time hence only giving a 3 star review.
c. g.
Great tandem instructors. friendly, experienced, professional
T.
Couldn't have asked for a more fantastic time. I was looked after by Al and Dylan, my bro had Dave and Alan who were all brilliant. Terrified and excited at the same time, felt like being in a scene from Point Break, what a rush. Thoroughly taken care of. The facilities are great lovely food and coffee.
J. G.
It was the best experience of my life so far. Dave and Alan were great with really friendly staff. They were great at putting nerves to rest, would certainly do it again!
R. D.
Can't praise this place highly enough. Rob was my instructor on the day. Very professional and able to answer any questions without hesitation, friendly and reassuring, which gave me the extra confidence that whatever happened, i was in good hands.
All the staff were friendly and pleasant. Weather on the day was 'iffy' but i didn't feel like anyone was putting anything before safety. Whole experience was fantastic, i just can't fault the place
L. j. M.
What an amazing experience today. my first skydive at 15000 feet. My instructor Billy Steele was absolutely phenomenal. I could tell the level of experience he had which totally kept me calm and put my mind at rest. I loved this experience thank u all x
D. W.
I had a great time from start to finish, all the staff were very helpful and friendly paying an extra £100 for videos and photos are top quality. Fantastic experience and a fantastic present for my 60th.
g.
Wow, what can I say was such an amazing experience. My instructor mike was brilliant, kept me at ease the whole way and thanks to his GPS landed us safely on our feet in the right place unlike the two others that jumped with us lol. Would do it again tomorrow
A. W.
Completed a 15,000ft tandem skydive yesterday with ‘Dave the Mackem’ as my instructor.... calmed my nerves from start to finish, talked me through absolutely everything, and it’s an experience that will stay with me a lifetime. Thank you Dave, and thank your Sky High Skydiving!! Incredible experience.
D. A.
So today was my first ever skydive and after bricking it for days before the guys put me 100% at ease and made it an amazing experience. Billy took me through the jump and is an awesome bloke with huge amount of experience 👍 I am definitely gonna be back as I loved every second of the experience... I'd give more stars if it was possible...
K. T.
I had a great first tandem jump at Sky-high Skydiving. The facilities are great and they kept everything moving smoothly. The jump was an amazing and indescribable experience; my instructor (the lovely Bryn) made me feel completely at easy and confident the entire time. I can see how skydiving could get addictive, I would go again in a heartbeat.
S. G.
Absolutely phenomenal! I jumped today for charity, my first jump, and not only were the instructors giving a platinum service, all the staff throughout the whole day were amazing. Every single one of them I dealt with had a smile, put you at ease, had a laugh and gave a service that'd make you want to return.
Apologies, I forgot my instructors name, but he was excellent either way! Also Richard, the cameraman was great and got some awesome footage. When nerves are high a sense of humour goes a long way.
I'll be going back most definitely and I highly recommend to anyone thinking of doing it, just do it! Do it at Peterlee!
K. B.
Had a fantastic day! We were very lucky with the weather and we were seen, trained, and had done our skydiving within a couple of hours. The staff were all very friendly before and after our booking and we felt completely safe. An amazing experience, thank you!
D. D.
Unbelievable experience! If you have ever fancied it I would say do it! Really friendly staff. Had to wait a little bit for the weather but it was well worth it! Billy (I think his name was) was the guy who I did my tandem jump with. Very friendly, kept me aware of what's going on all the time. I would love to do it again with them sometime!
K. R.
This was the best experience ever! A day I will never forget! If you love an adrenaline rush I highly recommend you visit here! The staff are all amazing.. from reception right through to the pros you jump with! Such a fantastic atmosphere and the most amazing experience ever!
K. H.
Got this experience for my fiance for his 30th Birthday. Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. All the instructors are so professional and make you feel at ease. Dave was absolutely superb. Thanks Dave

Honestly I was so scared to do the skydive yesterday, but I had the an amazing experience, my instructor ant put me at ease and kept me calm the whole time. Would 100% recommend doing one you won’t regret it!
K. T.
Incredible experience! I did a tandem dive with Billy who was awesome. He made me feel relaxed and confident throughout.
I think everyone should do a skydive once in their life to experience the exhilaration and adrenaline! Soooo fun to be chilling in the sky amongst the clouds 🪂🌤🥰
You will be in safe hands here. Little cafe is decent too if you’re waiting or need some food or coffee afterwards.
f.

I had an amazing experience. Very pleasant staff. The training, Tamdem Instructors & cameramen were very professional & really nice guys..
Absolutely beautiful day considering it was end of November, Clear blue sky, beautiful views..
90% Excited & 10% nervous but once your at the door of the plane ready to go, adrenaline kicks in.. Free fall from 15,000 ft was better than I ever imagined & it's hard to explain how good it was.. Excellent day. I would highly recommend.. 10 / 10 AWESOME!!
Thank you Peterlee parachute club for an amazing experience I'll never forget..
M. D. (.
One of the UKs best and brightest DZs.
Tandems will have an incredible view and 1st class service with safety and enthusiasm throughout
Experienced sporties will have any discipline catered for .... Just look at the LOs for their events.
What a DZ ..... Awesome

Bought for me by my wife as a surprise Christmas present it was a surprise as well .Scary waiting for turn to jump very nervous. but the team are very professional from receptionist to instructors who are a good laugh.i jumped with Daniel. Free falling was just out of this world a fantastic experience well worth all the nervousness so if you want to try something totally different just do a Jump

E. G.
Best Experience of my life, I was so scared but Bryn totally put me at ease and made the whole experience fun from start to finish. I will never forget it and glad I got the video, the camerman was amazing and the video came through really quick, I have watched it so many times, highly recommend getting the video for your memory box. Would 100% recommend this to anyone even if your scared just do it.
E. A.
Great experience, all the staff are wonderfully polite and make you feel at home. You are made an expert before you get to the plane. Was amazing coming down and I would definitely suggest getting the video footage. Thanks again guys especially Chris for keeping me safe. See you all again very soon!! P.s. I will definitely be booking this place again.
s. s.
Totally recommend it to anyone who wants to do it. Staff are really friendly and the instructor who I had Andy pointer was spot on i'll definitely be back

T. S.
I recently did my skydive for a charity called Bringing Back a smile.
Blair was my instructor. He was great. Very professional. I would definitely do it again. Thank you everyone. You were all lovely. Keep up the great work. Might even book and do it all Over again hhaaa xx
L. G.
Had a lovely instructor called Andrew. Made me feel comfortable and was very funny which helped. Can't recommend them enough. Unbelievable experience
A. R.
Without doubt you will have one of the best experiences of your life here. I am a regular skydiver and under the new management this drop zone has been transformed. Whether you are an experienced skydiver, doing a tandem jump with an instructor or working towards being a licensed skydiver the team here will make you feel welcome and do all within their ability to ensure you have the time of your life. Facilities are spot on, from manifest and check-in, the Swoop Inn cafe (I recommend the bacon baps or the chicken nuggets!), to the up to date kit and gear, they have it all covered and I for one can't wait to go back.
D. R.
An absolutely amazing experience, excellent staff and Dave the instructor was excellent to jump with. I will 100% be doing this again. Totally recommend Peterlee Skydive Academy. One last thing...... it's a must to have you jump filmed to share your experience
G. D.
Excellent experience had a great day. I was apprehensive at first but Dave and the rest of the team made feel relax with the banter on the plane. Would definitely recommend getting the video cheers Dave.
A. B.
Awesome experience! My instructor Dave was excellent at going through everything, giving comprehensive explanation and giving complete prompt updates from getting kitted up to checking back in on the ground. Excellent experience i'd advise everyone to give it a go!
J. d.
I did my tandem dive today, amazing experience. This was my first time and I will definitely be jumping again. Instructor made sure I was well informed of everything and went over everything to reassure me before I jumped.
J. R.
Great venture, excellent customer care, huge car park, cafe. Recommended!!
S. M.
A fantastic 60th birthday present and one hell of an experience. Loved every minute of it.
Danny was my instructor . My tip, must get it videoed to share it with everyone.
I will be doing this again and thanks to everyone at the academy for an unforgettable afternoon.
P. F.
You never leave a substandard review for a location where you depend on people to ensure you're safe when jumping out of aeroplanes at 15000 feet.
If you give it less than 5*, probably best not come back... :)
Seriously though, a top location for skydiving. A very friendly site, just a shame the weather isn't nicer.
D. L.
This is a once in a lifetime experience, if you get the chance to do the tandem skydive then do it as you will never ever regret it.
My instructor dave was brilliant and funny As well as professional at the same time. Seriously people go and you will love this experience and want to do it over and over again
S. S.
Awesome experience from start to finish very well organised. My instructor for my tandem dive was Dave on the 29th June 11am jump he was great very professional with a great sense of humour id recommend this to anyone.
Y. F.
My daughter did a jump today she was so nervous and scared but the smile on her face when she landed said it all.She was raising money for breast cancer care who have helped her through her own illness and so far has raised nearly £2000 because of this jump thankyou sky-high skydiving x
a. b.
The family went for a charity skydive and it was amazing. The instructors are very friendly and reassuring and give you up to the minute details of what's happening next . There is a cafe onsite and toilet facilities..there's also a seating area for the best view of the landing field
T. G.
We went for a family 15000ft skydive. The guys were friendly and very funny. They made you comfortable and relaxed and we enjoyed every second of it! We would have down a second jump if it was closer to home! Great day, thanks guys!
A. I.

S. F.
Absolutely amazing. 100% adrenaline, just brilliant. Fantastic skydive centre and instructors. Dave was mine and he was brilliant. Thanks so much lads n lasses loved it and will defo be back! 👍
L. A. A.
A brilliant experience. From the beginning to end. I wont deny I was scared. The staff were great especially Dave who talked me through every step of the dive so I knew exactly where I was at and what I had to do. My fear of the free fall turned into exhilaration and a sense of achievement. Thank you.
I jumped in honour of my father in law who died of Alzheimers, raising money for the Alzheimer Society.
r. l.
Absolutley fantastic day, tandem from 15k with Antony, and what a day, what an experience. Thank you very much for the experience to the team and to the instructor, can't thank you enough for the experience
E. B.
Absolutely amazing experience. Bryn my instructor was great with me as was my cameraman Liam.. I'd definitely do it all again.
Y. B.
Last Sunday 22nd, I done the tandem skydive a really amazing experience, staff were brilliant, cant thank Danny my instructor enough for putting me at my ease, would love to do this again, but higher, thank you for the brilliant experience, can't praise yous all enough
D. M.
Had an awesome jump with a fab french instructor on Sunday, was nice and relaxed throughout. Loved it would recommend these guys 100%. Good Covid-19 procedures in place. 🤩
G. L.
15k jump fantastic , make sure, if you get it as a gift , that they confirm what jump you are getting. They said mine was only a 10k jump , and had to pay extra , luckily I found the gift certificate , with a signed confirmation on the back that had the 15k jump on it. They refunded the money afterwards. A minor but irritating mix-up , they should be more careful. BUT that aside, fantastic guys 'n' girls for training and the jump itself , what a thrill , top notch , one of the best things ever! Get there , and get yourself thrown out!
N. S.
I've been here twice, once for my skydive and once for my mums. The staff are very cheerful and friendly. Even though my mums jump was cancelled last minute due to the weather, we still felt like it had been a good day.
L. C.
Done a tandem here a couple of year ago. Really profession and would defiantly recommend. Just been getting advice from one of their team via messenger at 10pm on a Saturday night. Not many companies would offer that service.
Fab guys.
M. T.
Today I did a tandem parachute jump for cancer research the experience was amazing and the instructor was so helpful and a calming influence on me,I had to cancel a couple of times with the strong winds but it was easy and the staff were so helpful about rescheduling, I would highly recommend the Skydive Academy.
D. M.
The most amazing experience of my life!. I was really nervous about doing this as I am not a fan of flying or heights but my instructor Dave put me at ease. I had the video package which was an additional cost if you are going to jump out a plane you need to get the video footage!. Liam who was filming was great also having a good chat on and calming my nerves. The guys at Skyhigh are all spot on and friendly would really reccomend this place. It won't be the last time I visit either. Cheers guys 👍
A. G.
Absolutely amazing experience I would love to do it again. My instructor Lee was epic talking me through everything and making the whole experience fun and enjoyable! Next time I want to try 15000ft!
J. N.
Bought a Tandem Skydive for my 40th birthday, I was a little apprehensive as jumping out of a perfectly good plane wasn't top of my list of things to do but I do like to try everything.
Got to the Centre and completed the training quickly, then got the kit on and was in the air within an hour. Once at altitude the door opened and before I knew my legs were hanging out of the plane then we were falling back to earth at apparently 120mph! a quick spin and some more falling for 25 seconds and then the parachute opened and it all went calm and peaceful. Plenty of time to take in the Durham countryside and the views over the North Sea before landing back the airfield.
I would also highly recommend having a video as it was all a bit of a blur at the start and being able to watch it back has been great and well worth it.
A thoroughly great experience that I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone at Peterlee Parachute Centre made it as enjoyable as it gets. Many thanks to everyone there.
r. k.
I tried tandem skydiving about a year ago, was in my to-do list. Skydiving, Bungee jumping or any other adventure sports is for pushing your boundaries out of comfort zone.
The experience with skydiving academy was great, extremely friendly and professional members. My instructor was one of the best skydivers and gave me 2 simple instructions to follow during the jump.
The skydiving (tandem) is for first timers (un-experienced) where a professional diver ties you up with him and takes the lead in the dive, so that you enjoy the free fall ( weightlessness).
The step for Tandem skydiving includes
1) training and instructions followed by
2) the actual jump, which may be on same or a different day depending on the weather condition.
My Experience during the jump
1) During free fall: Awesome!! However, as the g-force increased my ear began to pop (just like during take-off or landing of an aircraft but greater in magnitude)
2) When Parachute opened: Felt like vomiting ( controllable, didn't do it). It's obvious because of sudden stop ( yours instructor carry sickness bag😉) But then the beauty of county Durham is a treat specially when you scroll around the sky like a bird.
3) Legs up and Landed safely
Overall, relaxing experience and builds up your confidence.
Suggestions:
1)The main fun is in the free fall so the longer the free fall more fun it is. Try the max altitude jump (15,000 ft)
2)Try a jump on a clear sky day, although if you have the fantasy of jumping on clouds you can try.
3) Get your self photographed / video during your jump. Save it for life time.
4) Groupons have some discounted coupons during the off season (somewhere in December or January), but the weather is mostly cloudy.

Great dropzone. High standard of safety. Today was the hottest day of the year and they handed out ice lollies to us!
