What
to Expect
Booking
process
We
will help you arrange all aspects of your holiday, all you
need to do is contact us either by phone or email. Whether
you have specific dates in mind, or a budget you would like
to work to, we will help you find the best priced, most convenient
flights, transport and accommodation to suit you.
Your
AFF course can start any day of the week due to our instructor/student policy.
Whilst the AFF course can be completed in about 3 days, it
is wise to allow extra time to start your consolidation skydives,
so we recommend that your trip lasts for 7-10 days. Should
you find that you have extra time at the end of your holiday,
you may like to explore Seville, visit Gibraltar or work on
your tan at the local beach!

well deserved drink!
Then it’s onto one of our favourite restaurants, affectionately
known as ‘Giant Haystacks’- where all the food
is cooked on open barbeques. Despite having the capacity for
about 200 people, you still get queues of people wanting to
eat at this restaurant- and the best thing about it is that
all main meals are under 12 euros! |
Day

Evenings
The action never stops in the biggest tourist bar and Irish
pub in Sevilla. Outdoor seating, a few bars and a back dining
room give you plenty of choices. Big screen TV used for European
soccer and Rugby games. The Seville nightlife is only a short
bus or taxi ride away! |
 |
 |
Here in Seville you can jump all day and party all night.
There are restaurants, bars and clubs to suit all tastes and
there is never a shortage of new people to meet. Every night
is memorable!
