You guys!! One of the most nerve racking liberating experiences of my life. Joe was my instructor and Sebastian captured my video what a great team they were. Joe’s vibe was so chill and relaxed which made my nerves chill out Sebastian was so calm and kind. I’m so happy I did it!!! Thank you guys for a great jump!! Praise be to God!!

Skydive Spaceland was a-ma-zing. I still can't believe I skydived!! I continually tell everyone I've come across about this place. I love that they have the flight school educational training that truly gives you the confidence to take the the dive while also feeling like you have autonomy but still a knowledgable person behind you. Shout out to Happy who created a fun and safe landing, Joe for the phenomenal footage, and all the welcoming staff at the front. (I should've bought my second jump for $99 because I will definitely be back)

It was my first time and I was so nervous, scared but the team makes me easy experience. They are highly skilled, motivated and experienced people I love the videographer man . Who was so lovely and my instructor too. Thank you and see you again in future.

Top notch customer service! Adam was my instructor and Sebastian my videographer. Both were great and informative! Adam (and the other instructors) had a great sense of humor which put me at ease a good bit. Jumping out of the plane, I immediately screamed and I believe that may have took the air out of me at 14,000 ft because immediately after I was having a hard time grasping air and I thought I was fighting for my life for a short while (seconds), lol. So, some training on breathing techniques would have been great but it did not seem like others had that issue. Once the canopy/parachute was up it was peaceful and a sight! I really enjoyed the experience and the customer service alone would be the reason I go back to Spaceland ATL for another dive.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. The facility is clean, modern, and professional. Likewise the instructors and other employees. I felt that safety was the first priority and next was making sure my experience was totally enjoyable and easy from start to finish.

First, i want to thank our instructors christian, and luca and videographer Allison, and Yohan. It was our first jump and they were phenomenal. My mom is 88yrs old and they were so attentive and caring, safety first. Everyone that works there was just so accommodating. I have nothing but positive things to say. In my final interview I was asked if I would jump again and I said NO, but if my family members that came to support me decide to jump i think i would reconsider because Skydive Spaceland is just that AWESOME.

My dad had been looking to skydive for a while so we finally bit the bullet and booked our first tandem dives with Skydive Spaceland! It was about an hour outside of ATL/North Metro ATL so not a bad drive and pretty easy to find. When you get there, the staff was super friendly in answering all our questions, making sure our paperwork was complete, and checking in with us to make sure we were doing ok. Our instructors (mine was DC!!) made sure we were properly fitted with equipment and went over procedures so we knew what to expect. We went with the videographer package (I HIGHLY recommend this for your first jump so you get the best memories captured!!). My videographer (I believe Mike) was awesome and got me to open up. It definitely felt like we had a whole entourage with us which honestly made me feel a lot safer with jumping. The actual jump itself was so much fun!! It's sensory overload and we weren't prepared for how COLD it would be that high up! Once we got into the correct freefall position, it was a super cool experience and we were really able to interact with our videographer. My favorite part was definitely once we pulled the parachute and were able to sit in the canopy and do some cool turns. Once you land, they'll debrief with you and walk you through next steps if you're interested in getting certified. They also offer a sweet discount for a second tandem jump - you can do it for only $100 if you buy on the spot which I definitely recommend and took advantage of as it never expires! Overall, if you're considering skydiving at all, definitely do it here!! They are all around professionals, put your safety first, and make it fun!!!

Bought this as a gift for my husband and daughter to jump together for father's day weekend. They both hit the ground with smiles yelling WHOO WE WANT TO GO AGAIN! The whole process was so smoothly done from check in to safety videos to suiting up to the jump! Highly recommend the video. Their stories of the jump were great but being able to WATCH their faces as they free fell was priceless! Can't wait to go again! DC made my hubby feel completely safe and informed from start to finish and his enthusiasm just pumped us all up more. ​

DON'T PAY ONLINE!! I looked forward to going sky diving. Unfortunately I was unable to because I was unwilling to pay twice and wait 3-5 business days for my funds to be returned after their system declined my payment because of an error on their behalf. Tried to book my jump online. My payment was declined because they stated the card information did not match what was on file which was false. Instead of honoring it because the funds were taken out the account and allowing me to jump they stated I have to pay again since the first charge is only pending and will be returned. My information was correct and I should not have been penalized and required to pay again for a system error on their behalf. It's unfortunate because I looked forward to jumping for my birthday. However, I will not be returning once the pending charge is removed and my money is refunded.

I can't even imagine to describe how amazing this place is. They gave me the best experience for me being a first timer. I would recommend this place to any and everybody who wants to feel a little adrenaline in their life from time to time.

If you're looking to do your first tandem jump this place will make sure that experience is totally worthwhile. They're very friendly and they take their time with instructions and answering your questions/concerns. Eric, my instructor, was super chill and went over everything with me multiple times to ensure I well understood the process and what to expect. Juan, my videographer, was fun to jump with and scored this epic shot of me shortly after we departed the plane. I highly recommend you get the video/photo package with your first jump. Though, it'll vary from person to person, my friend and I shared a similar opinion which was: our first jump we felt quite a bit of sensory overload in the rush and excitement, but our second jump we were able to enjoy much more. Therefore, I'd recommend you get that video on the first one then score that $80 discount for your second jump after you get your first one then really get that full experience as you better know what all to expect. If you're on the fence about doing this I vote you make the jump. Its nothing but pure bliss once you leave that plane.

I decided to go skydiving for my 23rd birthday and I could not have imagined a better place to go. Unfortunately, on the day I chose the winds were awful and I ended up waiting 4 hours before I could jump. HOWEVER, during this time the staff was very friendly one of the guys told my friends and I TONS of stories from previous jumps and even took the time to educate us on the importance of having winds at certain speeds to guarantee safe jumps. So, by the time I was on the plane preparing to jump, I was BEYOND calm and felt safer doing a tandem jump with a complete stranger than I have on most flights. These people are great and super down to earth and made my first jump an AMAZING and MEMORABLE experience. Jumping here you also have the opportunity to pull your own parachute and they train you on such and at what altitude you are to pull the chute. I hands down recommend this place ESPECIALLY for first time jumpers!

Took my husband here for his late birthday present and will come again staff was super nice and welcoming ! From Lisa and the lovely woman at the front desk all the way till we left , we couldn't of asked for a better experience !

Juan and KRad were terrific and made my daughter so comfortable for her first jump. I've flown with other clubs in GA and Spaceland is by far the most impressive and professional. My highest recommendation!!

Hello Everyone, I'd like to start out by saying I almost never write reviews but my experience here was so great I had to give credit where credit was due. First off shout out to everyone who works at Skydive Spaceland Atlanta. You all treated me like family from when I booked the course, before I even walked through the door. When I got there to begin training everyone already knew me by name and who I was. I had signed up for the "A in a week" program during which the skydiving center will train and coach you through all the prerequisite jumps needed to obtain your USPA Class A skydiving license. I began by doing two tandem jumps with my Tandem Instructor Drew, who gave me an awesome tandem experience. I had once jumped tandem about 20 years prior. Drew made me feel comfortable and totally at ease with the two tandem jumps I did with him. Great exit, good freefall, and flawless landing. Next I began the STP (student training program)/AFF (accelerated freefall) course to start working towards getting my USPA Class A license. My instructors Nate and Austin began teaching me everything I needed to know beginning with ground work in the hangar. It consisted of basic principles, body positioning, and other fundamentals of skydiving. Before I knew it I was on my first solo jump under the supervision of my instructors. I learned more and more going through different jump levels as the difficulty and the fun increased. During downtime I learned how to pack my own parachute with Christian and Katrel back at the hangar. I was even lucky enough to get to peak in the rigging loft where the riggers inspect the rigs and canopies, performing repairs if necessary. Very interesting stuff. Getting to know the gear was a great experience for me. These guys are very thorough when it comes to safety, which made me feel comfortable and enhanced the entire experience. If you're thinking of doing a tandem jump or obtaining a USPA skydiving license this is where you want to be. I can't say enough positive things about Skydive Spaceland Atlanta and all the wonderful time I had there. Great people, a great experience, and an awesome time to be remembered! Thank you everyone for making me feel at home and welcoming me into the Skydive Spaceland family. All The Best & Clear Skies, Blaz

My boyfriend and I have been talking about going skydiving for so long that I decided to seize the opportunity when I ran out of birthday gift ideas for him. Reserving a spot here was a breeze, I simply called in, requested a date, chose my time and received a confirmation email. Overall it's a bit cheaper to pay ahead of time which is what I ended up doing, however they only required a $50 deposit 24 hours before your jump. We arrived, filled out some paperwork, watched a short video and then the wait began. We went on a Saturday in a group of 4 people, and the day we chose was apparently booked to the brim. Plan on being here for at least a few hours. Our jump was scheduled for 4:30 and we didnt actually get to the plane until around 7:30. Now you have no excuse to complain, I've warned you! The instructors did let us know, however, that we booked the best jump of the day, the sunset jump, and boy did it live up to the hype. Overall the experience was incredible. The instructors were pretty fun, the plane ride up was tiny and frightening, and jumping out was literally one of the most exhilarating feelings. I HIGHLY recommend skydiving at least once (honestly if I could afford it I would do this WAY more often, its addicting) and skydive spaceland definitely has my vote.

I made my first jump with Skyland and it was incredible from beginning to end. They are a well-oiled machine. Uber professional and experts in the field. Although this was my first jump, I have gone to another facility that lacked the level of service and quality of service of Skyland. If I ever do another jump, I'll definitely come to this location again!

It was a awesome day..first tandem jump. Excited and ready to go. To the staff and skydivers...thank you so much. You made my family and friend happy. I've always dreamed of this. Today it happened. Juan...my instructor left a phase in my log book it read "Thanks for saving my life" I should be thanking you brother my life was in your hands. Great job!! If any one ever dreams of skydiving...I highly recommend you give Spaceland-Atlanta a go. You won't regret it. Thanks again everyone.

Amazing, friendly, and funny staff! Very professional with many years of experience. I will definitely be going again! The 1 con is we showed up 30 minutes before we were told to show up (9:30am), finished all the paperwork and instructional videos by 10:30, and didn't jump until 2:30-3pm. Very boring during the 4 hour wait in the hangar, but it was 100% worth it!

Skyland was everything I wanted it to be and more. Everything from check-in to landing was seamless. My instructor Luke was amazing and made me feel super comfortable. He was good about going over the instructions multiple times and making sure I understood. Zoe was my videographer and she was also amazing. She got some great footage which made an keepsake video. I highly recommend Skyland and will definitely be returning.

Great experience. Excellent staff. Beautiful scenery. Very professional. The staff are personal and very friendly. Wait is long, be prepared. Pack a cooler and bring chairs, cards and just relax and enjoy. It's worth the wait. If it's your first time make sure u purchase the video. They have a huge Jenga game and cornhole for your wait. The facility is very clean.

I went here my first time ever skydiving and I have to say I really enjoyed it. Everyone was so awesome, and respectful. I probably will be going there again eventually. They made me feel very safe and calm about jumping out of a plane. They taught us everything we needed to know, and it was just really fun. I would tell everyone to come here.

I visited Spaceland Atlanta for my best friends 30th birthday in February 2020. Everything and everyone was phenomenal!! The thought of the jump was very intimidating at first. But, I made myself endure it for personal growth. It helped build my confidence for sure. I am surely an adrenaline junkie now too. My instructor was super cool and safe! It's an experience I will never forget or exchange. I am so glad my bestie and I made the decision to jump. Another instructor jumped while filming me and my best friend STILL MIND BLOWING!! The footage I purchased was so worth it. Now, those consent forms will make you rethink life I'm not going to lie. They are very thorough about letting you know the RISK!! I was waiting on bestie to pull out, but she didn't! I mean you're jumping out of a perfectly good plane how risky is that!??? You guys enjoy and do NOT live life with regrets!! Much love to everyone alllllll the way from TEXAS!!

Nice facility with a large hangar for packing. The DZ aia surrounded by trees and there is a small pond that makes this DZ very cozy place to hang around if you do not like to skydive. People are super fri melt and very helpful to your needs. Not a lot of food options around, but I am guessing that during warmer period of the year, they have more pod options.

I have waited 30 years to fulfill mu dream. I am a recent weight loss surgery patient and I started my bucket list of things I wanted to do after I lost the weight. My 2 year surgiversary is September 26th and I can officially say I am almost 300 pounds down! I had been talking for a while about skydiving and my family made this happen for my 30th. The instructors, staff, facilities were all top knotch. Cray, my tandem instructor, was fun, knowledgeable, and helpful. He made the nerve wracking decision to jump easy. Made sure I was ok during the whole process and kept reminding me what to expect. Truly I am so appreciate of skydive spaceland atlanta for make my dream come true and helping me celebrate two HUGE milestones, turning 30 and losing 298 pounds! Bought my second jump and cannot wait to come back! Cray thank you for everything! Cannot wait to jump with you all again.

I brought my son skydiving yesterday for his 23rd birthday. To say that it was an amazing experience is an understatement. The entire team made us feel so safe during the skydive and made my son feel so special on his birthday. Safety is their number one concern, although their hospitality is wonderful. Lots of laughter and excitement filled our airplane. I am 51 years old and was very nervous about doing this jump. Charles was my tandem partner and he made me feel so safe that I wasn't scared and enjoyed every minute of the jump. Juan was my sons tandem partner and he was also great. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars!!!!!!!

100% recommend Skydive Spaceland-Atlanta. The staff here went above and beyond to make sure we had a really good time on our first skydive. They kept things fun and safe. The check in process was straight forward and simple, the gear was clean and looked new, the facility was top notch. I researched every sky dive place within 2-3 hours of Atlanta before purchasing two tickets for a birthday gift and I will say, no one else came close. I spent a lot of time comparing locations and prices and decided Spaceland was the best for the price. It's easy to get caught up comparing places over who can be the absolute cheapest, but when you're suited up, and strapped into a harness, and climbing up to 14,000 you realize this is an amazing price for what you're about to do. We immediately purchased two more tickets for the $99 when we landed, it was that good. I did not get the video package.

Great place with great people. If it's your first time this is definitely the place to go. You f your a regular and you like ha gong around good people with happy attitudes then this is still the place to be. Dragged three people with me for our first jump. Now none of them can hardly wait to do the next. Very professional, clean, and friendly environment.

Most amazing thing I have ever done and everyone made me feel good about everything. Today was my second jump and I'm not sure which was more exciting. The first was emotional because it is so much to take it in. The 2nd was just as exhilarating but more techincal so we did some fun stuff on the way down. Everyone has their own unique personality they bring to the experience to make it fun. Everyone is very knowledgeable and answered every question that I threw at them because they love what they do.

GREAT STAFF! Made me feel so calm and welcome from the moment I walked in to the moment I left with my video. Safety was very important to me and they really focused on that beforehand and after debriefed me about my jump and spoke about what I could do in the future with skydiving. Very informative! Love Skydive Spaceland Atlanta and their staff and beautiful facility.

This was on my wife's bucket list so I purchased two jump packages with the HD video and pictures for both of us. Sadly, my wife injured herself several weeks before the jump and could not go. I asked my 29 year-old son to join me which he gladly accepted with my wife coming along to cheer us on from the ground. .We scheduled an afternoon jump on Saturday. The jumps were running behind all day due to weather, after loading into the plane at 4:30 PM we were cancelled when a typical southern storm blew up over the jump site. We rescheduled for the following day in the morning. The jump was amazing and the biggest rush I have ever had at 57 years old. And this is coming from someone who hates heights. I won't deny that I was scared to death when I went out the door, but once out the fear quickly disappeared and I was all smiles in the video and pictures. I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Skydive Spaceland. From the initial appointment call, to the training, and the way the entire staff makes you feel at ease and works hard to relieve your fears. My instructor Eduardo was excellent, in fact amazing. He definitely know how to provide the best experience he can. Melinda, his wife was our videographer and she was amazing. Both my pictures and video were amazing. I fact they were beyond amazing. I highly recommend paying the additional cost for the video package. You won't be sorry. The videographer for my son ended up having an equipment failure and the video during freefall did not work. I guess it happens but the staff at Spaceland made it right. They gave him a great break on the next jump. A free t-shirt, and a free video and picture package on his next jump. And most importantly, they could not apologize enough. Not sure who owns the operation, but he definitely hires the best staff in the industry in my opinion. Can not wait for jump #2 when my wife is healed!!

Absolutely awesome! First jump May 11 and found the staff of Skydive Spaceland Atlanta to be enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and professional. Facility and equipment were excellent. My tandem partner, Kevin P. and videographer, Rob were first rate. Would highly recommend, planning on a second round shortly. A RUSH. John Tobolski

I just came back from spending the better part of the week there and it still was not enough. The staff and people you meet here are truly one of a kind and I am so happy I decided to go through Skydive Spaceland-Atlanta for my license! From the very moment I checked in I knew I was at home. Before arriving I already read the other reviews of how good the service is here but I thought that was pretty standard for any type of business. But the family at SSA go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. Whether you are there for a tandem or on the license program they make sure you get everything you need out of it. Kevin taught a very through and engaging class. I truly mean that because I usually fall asleep two minutes into any other type of lecture. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his craft. I then got a packing class from Rob. I HIGHLY encourage everyone that wants to get their license to opt for this class. Going through all of the aspects of your equipment helped my confidence. Super informative and amazing gentleman all around. Moving onto my primary skydiving instructor is the amazing James Englund. I am one stubborn guy and very slow learner. James was super patient and always knew how to approach my learning style. There was never a problem with my form he did not know how to approach and give tips that I would understand. Instantly gained my trust and respect from the start during our introductions. I'd say thats very important when you have to jump out of a plane together and free fall for 14k feet! I'd like to quote something I heard this past week, "skydiving was meant to be a hobby for me, but it became a way of life." I only have a few jumps under me but I'm already falling in love with the family not to mention that rush! There are so many more people I met during my stay here but a review on each of those individuals would span 5 more pages. Just know that everyone you meet at Spaceland-Atlanta is a gem you won't find anywhere else.

What a 1st class experience! I took 3 of my clients out for tandem jumps last week. I booked online and quickly got a reply that we were all set and ready to go for Friday. I had jumped 4 other times (one tandem and 3 AFF) years ago, but for the others that I brought, it was their 1st time. They all loved it and our most nervous jumper was the 1st to say he'd be back! Even for a tandem jump they give you the training and skills that you may not learn until your 2nd or 3rd solo jumps at other facilities. The facilities was nice, open and clean. All employees were very nice and helpful. What I liked best over a neighboring facility was that the landing area was very large and open. Plenty of room for a student to feel comfortable landing.

Recently visited Skyland Atlanta for tandem skydiving as a gift for a friend! Overall a great experience with a couple of misses. Pro - Unlike other skydiving places in Georgia, Skyland allows customers to use groupons on any day of the week, no weekend exclusion! - The price they quote you is all inclusive. No extra frivolous fees (like a goggle/equipment rental fee Skydive Georgia tries to slip by lol). It doesn't feel like they are trying to cheat you or take away from having a wonderful experience. - Friendly staff! With the exception of one person, the staff overall was welcoming, inviting, and overall promoted a great time. This made you really excited and comfortable to try such a new experience. - Weight limit is 280. Other places emphasize anything over 200-240 will incur additional charges. Makes you feel more comfortable and less worried if you've been carrying around a few extra lbs lol! - Thorough training! Before your jump, you'll feel very knowledgable about what to expect as they go through the explanation, allow you to watch a training video, and your instructor goes over it again prior to the jump. - Altitude 14k. Gives you about a solid minute of free fall. Based on my friends opinion, it was a good amount of time. - Great pricing! You really don't feel cheated with this place. Your second tandem jump is 99 bucks if you book same day! Amazingggggg. They are really promoting and encouraging you to be a certified jumper. - Clean facility. Cons - Emphasis on tips. I'm all about tipping but didn't realize this place would expect patrons to tip which really made me feel uncomfortable as I was unprepared to tip. There were tip jars on the counter at sign in and tipping mentioned during the training. I personally believe the jars are enough. - Mixed information communicated. As a viewer of someone else jumping, I was told by the instructor I could take a truck to the viewing area since I was the only person there. The person driving the truck came up to me and offered the same thing. I went inside to grab at shirt for a souvenir and was told about the viewing area, to which I replied that someone already spoke to me about riding a truck. Then the lady somewhat rudely communicated that I wasn't supposed to be riding in the truck. That was not an issue at all, I don't mind walking! Once outside I was standing waiting closer to the time the instructor said they would be dropping when the truck driver walked by on the phone, can back and said "you can't ride with me." I'm guessing the lady called him but it really made me feel uncomfortable in how the message was communicated by her. - If viewing get ready for an awkward walk through nature! Lol! As a city girl, this may not be a con for someone at one with nature. When walking to the viewing area, which was confusing to find based on the directions given by several people (it actually wasn't that far!), there are trees, a pond, and other areas with water and dips. All this to me means SNAKES! I made sure to watch where I was going lol. However, on the way back, I saw old skin that looked like it was shed! As if a snake was previously there. After seeing that, it was knees to chest back to the car! Overall, a great experience. Only suggestion would be to make sure everyone is on the same page as it relates to information and guidelines. I would recommend this as a place to visit if you're looking to skydive in Georgia!

I won a free ticket to skydive off the radio, and I was skeptical for a few reasons. A) I was nervous about a company using the radio/free offers to get customers. It made me feel nervous, like they weren't very reputable, so they needed the business. And B) I was scared in general to jump out of a plane. Wow, I was WRONG. First, the facility was clean and well-maintained. Next, I loved the staff. They were all very welcoming and inviting. The man who jumped with me (it was a tandem jump) was super funny and nice, and he made me feel very comfortable. They also did a very good job of preparing us for the jump. They gave a short talk about what would happen, showed a video, and then had us physically prepare for how the jump would go. Very informative, and very professional. Nothing made me feel unsafe or unprepared for the jump. I LOVED the jump, and the entire experience was wonderful. I would, and most definitely am, going to be returning to Skydive Spaceland-Atlanta for more jumps. My only complaint is the price of photos, but I understand that it takes an extra person to jump, so I do understand why it costs what it does. Also, if you opt for photos, they edit it into a video with music and such, which is pretty nice. All in all, if you're looking for a place to jump in Atlanta, definitely visit Skydive Spaceland. I really can't recommend this place enough!

This weekend I completed my first jump here at Skydive Spaceland-Atlanta and I would be lying if I said my experience was anything but Amazing. My instructor J D-33588 and videographer Rafael D-35266 made my experience both safe and relaxing. The entire staff is very friendly and accommodating if you want to go skydiving go here you wont regret it. Thanks guys for an amazing time bucket list received another check!

Awesome thrill adventure! Beautiful setting (former farm, wide open space). Staff are all highly trained and safety-oriented. Each staff member has made thousands of tandem jumps so all are very experienced. All equipment is top notch. Overall, had an incredible experience and would recommend this place. Here are a few comments: -We paid extra for the HD picture/video package. Unfortunately my son's videographer's Go Pro had a malfunction or he forgot to hit the start button so no video was taken. Skydive Spaceland refused to do anything about it other than agreeing to film him again for free if we paid for a second jump. Really?? That's pretty bad customer service. We had already been there 6 hours and had a 2 hour drive home so paying almost $200 for another jump was not an option for us. I totally understand that things can happen but make it right when something does go wrong by refunding part of the cost of the HD package. But manager pointed to big "No Refunds for Any Reason" sign at the check-in desk. -Each jumper does get to "pull the cord" to open the parachute following the freefall. that is pretty cool! -site is in the middle of 'no where' so bring reading material, folding chair, or fishing pole (there is a stocked pond on property). There is a giant Jenga game and a corn hole game. Other than that, there isn't anything to do while you wait for your turn. Bring your own chair... not many places to sit while you wait. -Eat in Rockmart or Cedartown before you arrive. Only food items available on site is a vending machine. -Participants wear jumpsuits that are provided but not cleaned between uses-some jumpsuits are pretty nasty with sweat. -Jumpers start off by watching 20 minute video that reviews the basics of a tandem jump. Closer to time to jump, each jumper meets his tandem instructor and the videographer. Tandem instructor helps each jumper into the jumpsuit and harness. -Be prepared to wait! We waited 4 hours before it was our turn to jump. Part of this was due to weather issues in the morning that backlogged the rest of the day. -Airplane is not on site. There is a shuttle bus that takes jumpers to the airplane (about 8 minute ride). Spectators stay at the main site and can observe the jumpers from the open observation place (perfect view! watched them jumped from the plane to all the way to when they landed). Shuttle collects the jumpers from the field and brings them back to the main site. -Rob is an awesome videographer/photographer!! He took by far the best video and pictures of anyone in our group!

Couldn't ask for a better experience! Everyone makes you feel comfortable, relaxed, & SAFE, most importantly. First time diver and will definitely be back! Ask for David to fly with! He did an incredible job. And definitely go for Rob for videoing! They were amazing. I know I wouldn't have been as prepared without these two!

I visited Skydive Spaceland Atlanta with my girlfriend this past weekend for our first skydives ever. The staff here are super friendly, explain everything multiple times, and made both of our first experiences fantastic. We appreciated the all-inclusive rate with no added fees for anything. We will definitely be back!

I purchased this GroupOn as birthday present for my boyfriend & it was one of the best decision I have ever made. Prior to arrival we were excited but still nervous. All hesitations went away when we got to Skydive Spaceland Atlanta. Their family-like staff are extremely personable, knowledgable, experienced, and provide an incredible experience. It is not only their mission to take you for a life changing jump, but to thoroughly teach you exactly what is about to happen. It was an all inclusive learning experience. They made it a point to share their genuine passion for this sport making us feel even more comfortable and amping up the excitement. I can't imagine skydiving anywhere else, besides another Spaceland location. Thank you for helping us make these wonderful, life long memories! We'll be back soon!
