We drove to iFly Roseville from Sonoma County for my son's birthday. I wasn't sure what to expect, but we were greeted warmly and brought into the main area to get suited up. Our instructor was John-Felix, although he goes by John. My son is 22 and fairly athletic, so I figured that he'd enjoy it. What I was less prepared for was how much I loved it! It is a fairly expensive hobby, although, if you're on-site after paying for a session, they have more reasonable rates if you want to buy additional sessions. Since we don't live locally, I didn't indulge in one of the packages, despite the temptation. They walk you through everything clearly and there's a brief training class in a classroom after which we waited our turn on the perimeter while we were called up one at a time. Each "flight" was approximately 1 minute and 20 seconds and we each got two flights. We all passed on the high flight option, but during our second time they walked us through how to begin navigating in the wind tunnel during our turn. That was my favorite part! I found it fascinating feeling the degree to which small modifications in the angle of my hands or the extension of my arms changed my position and movement in the air. I felt like a bird. The flights are brief, but memorable and meant to resemble the length of time usually experienced during a skydiving jump. We didn't pay for the high flights, but we enjoyed our experience nonetheless. Our instructor was encouraging and helpful. At the end, he did a quick demonstration of the types of tricks that can be done with training, all sorts of spins and flips! Already considering when we can make it back again. * Word to the wise, my kids both have long hair and they both ended up wishing they'd had it tucked into their suits since it got significantly tangled and required quite a lengthy communion with a hairbrush afterward to get the tangles out. I think a braid might also be a good option. read more

This was my second time at iFLY, and while last year was fun, this year was truly amazing. I was there with my son Lex, who has special needs. He's nonverbal and uses a wheelchair. I initially asked the staff whether he would qualify for a special needs or disabled flight at a future visit because I honestly didn't think there would be room or that it would be possible. They immediately reassured me that he could fly, and I figured we'd come back another time. Then something really special happened. Even though Lex doesn't attend the same school as my daughters that were there on a field trip (he goes to a different school with a special education program), the school approached me and offered us an extra spot. I said yes, not really knowing what to expect. From that moment on, the staff was incredible, kind, patient, gentle, and completely accommodating. They treated Lex with dignity and enthusiasm, not hesitation. He got to fly twice, and he absolutely loved it. When he finished, everyone clapped and cheered for him, and it was one of those moments you don't forget as a parent. I can't say enough good things about the experience. If you're a special needs family and wondering whether your child will truly be included and supported here, the answer is yes. I highly, highly recommend iFLY. read more

So much fun fun fun. It's definitely an experience I won't forget. Loves the friendly staff they were patient and explaining how the process works. read more

This place was amazing! From being greeting kindly by the employee in the front area to her walking us through the entire experience of what needed to be done and what we could expect. We met with an instructor as a group who went over all of the safety instructions, we changed into jumpsuits and received more instruction. Everyone lined up and went one by one into the cylinder area. I liked that everyone on the outside could watch each person as they flew around. We all felt safe during the experience and would certainly return to do it again. Thanks guys read more

went today as first timers with my wife, both of us had a blast. the instructors are very friendly, instruct well & gave us a pleasant experience. I believe Richard was our instructor 10/10. Sessions are a bit short @ 1 minute IMO but we had fun. read more

Five stars because the staff was amazing, my husband had a GREAT time, and the experience was enjoyable. Hubby gives it 5+ undeniable stars, 3.5 star experience FOR ME, taking *everything* into consideration. (I'm more of an adrenaline junkie.) Hubby & I wanted to do something a little different during our brief stay in Roseville and we could almost see this place from our hotel so iFly was it. I've always toyed with the idea of skydiving so this seemed like a great introduction. I have NO IDEA how it happened but I purchased tix for a different location and they were VERY HELPFUL in getting it changed around for us. We signed the waivers, suited up, got a quick instruction and then the flights began. Our group was pretty full with 8 people but I went first. 60 seconds. That's it. You "fly" for 60 seconds, completely and 100% of the time attached to the instructor. Mind you, he was GREAT and I can, in hindsight, understand why they hold on to you but it was not what I imagined. That said, I am GLAD I paid $20 for the "high flight" so I could experience a little bit of something more than going in a circle. Hubby found it totally exhilarating! He has a wonky back (no injuries) and had no issues. I'm certain if we lived closer, he'd be going back for more! The whole experience was about an hour and half so taking into consideration I flew for 120 seconds, it's a pretty pricey hobby. We got a deal (because it was a weekday morning) and with the 2 high flights = $218. (Regular price would've been $280.) Anyhow, glad I did it, would definitely recommend, might enjoy it again with a group of friends or family but it's likely a one time thing for me. There was a good deal offered after our flights and I know hubby would've gone for it it we weren't so far away. ***Our instructor was AMAZING with the two young and very nervous kids in our group. He was patient but pushed/encouraged them and they FLEW the 2nd round, ending with just the biggest smiles and high fives ever!*** read more

We took our local Scout Pack and Troop to iFly Roseville for the STEM Nova "Up and Away!" experience and it was such a fun time! They started with a quick STEM talk and went over the rules. Then they got to watch a cool physics demo in the wind tunnel using stuffed animals, balls, and even water to show how air and gravity work. The staff even showed off some flying tricks. The kids loved it. After that, the Scouts split into two groups. One group went into a separate room and did a hands-on activity where they built parachutes. The other group got to suit up and start flying! Each Scout got a turn in the tunnel with an instructor, then came back for a second turn where they went even higher on a high flight. They were all smiles! Then the groups switched. The staff was awesome, friendly, patient, and great with the kids. The also let us bring in our own food for dinner, and scheduled time to eat between the demo and the activities, which worked out great. At the end, each Scout got a certificate for completing the program. Overall, this was such a fun and unique way to earn the STEM Nova award. Highly recommend for any Scout group looking for something a little different! They also offer this package for other groups as well. read more

What a special place. We had our son's 8th birthday party here and the team did an incredible job. Everything was executed perfectly. The flight instructor, Jorge, was kind, patient, and super fun for the large group of 13 amped up kids. The flight staff was super communicative and helped us organize the party room with ease. We had some last minute additions to the group and they were super flexible. I have only positive things to say about iFLY Sacramento. If you are looking for an incredible experience or awesome birthday party, look no further. read more

We took our daughter to iFLY for her birthday, and she absolutely loved it! My husband joined her, and they both had an amazing time. Our instructors, John and Casey, were super professional, friendly, and so encouraging. The time flew by (literally!), and upgrading to go higher was totally worth it. She's already talking about going back--and one day, actually skydiving! Thank you, John and Casey, for making her birthday such a memorable and exciting experience! read more

Casey was a great instructor! Thoughtful and explained the moves well. Had a great time.

The Stem field trip was so much fun. Not only did the kids get to fly the got to learn and do fun experiments. Physics demonstrations in the wind tunnel was their favorite. Thank you Ifly team. My kid had so much fun flying the first time with his class we immediately flew again right after the field trip ended. read more

the workers are rude and pressure you to go up higher. it's overpriced for rude customer service

Great time fun a bit too expensive if you ask me but a good time. Have done it multiple times.

This place was very well run. The staff is great, very helpful and knowledgeable. They take safety seriously, but make the experience super fun. My grandgirl's school went here for a field trip so there were a LOT of kids there. They got them all in for a flight and everyone had fun! I was impressed. read more

I highly recommend this for the people that do not want to jump out of a plane. You are "assisted" in your flight as a beginner. You are able to advance with experience. It was a lot of fun, would do it again. read more

What a cool experience that totally lived up to my expectations! The facility was really neat and the instructors were great. Granted, we attended a birthday party there so I wasn't the one paying the bill. Prepare yourself for sticker shock but hear me out... We've done all of the jump places.. all of the arcade party places.. we've rented the bounce houses year after year.. this was unique, different, and incredibly memorable. So drop that dime, there are only so many birthdays and so many opportunities to make memories like this. read more

I can't emphasize enough what a scam job this place deploys. Upon completing your "flight", they offer discounted vouchers for future use. What they fail to tell you, is how they expire within 21 days. You can't even read the tiny print that states it. First off, who in their right mind will return within 21 days? Second, do you really need to be this strict about redemption expiration? Like I said, total scam job. I hate this place and I tell everyone I know what awful ownership they must have. Ripping off everyone with these return vouchers...you should feel ashamed of yourself. Pathetic! read more

My husband wanted to jump from a plane for his birthday however since it is in January we decided to do IFly now and then jump when it was warmer. All I can say is just keep taking my money. Such a great experience. We both had a trouble figuring out how to position our bodies the first flight. Our instructor was so patient with us. Such an amazing experience. Definitely going to be doing this more. Honestly feel this gives me more confidence for the plane jump. Highly recommend the Sacramento IFly team. Such great people. I will also add you need to be sure to get the high flight. Trust me it will not feel that high and you will feel amazing after. read more

Thank you, Marcus and the rest of the IFly team for making our 11-year-old son's birthday extra special. This was my husband's and 11-year-old's second jump session, and me and my older son's first jump, it was even more fun than they hyped it up to be. The team was patient, kind, and very helpful. If we lived closer we would be regular flyers. We are already planning and looking forward to our next visit. Thank you all for a great time. read more

Core memory unlocked, we had so much fun! We did the two flights + high flight upgrade, and it was 100% worth it. John Felix was an amazing and experienced instructor. We appreciated how well he guided us inside the wind tunnel. I was anxious at first, but thanks to his professionalism I felt comfortable, went for it, and ended up having an incredible time! read more

Had Casey and Richard who helped us out for the night and they made this experience awesome. Thank you both for having great customer service as well as being great instructors. Would definitely come back to iFly and soar once again!! read more

I just want to say that it was my bday and when I asked cole for a red suit he didn't want to give me the one I wanted it I felt that was not cool. I wanted to match my family. Why not please the customer and make her feel happy. Not cool at all Cole work on your customer service. read more

Super fun. My 10 year old son and I came here and our instructor was Ian. Everything went super smooth and Ian is very mellow and helpful with lots of experience. We'll be back again! read more

We had so much fun we went for my daughter's birthday gift. I like how they go over all the directions with your group before entering the camber. If you forget your shoes they have you covered with some back ups. What is nice they make sure everyone is having a good time and if you do have a person not wanting to go in they respect that and keep moving along with those still going into the wind chamber. I can say my daughter is now hooked and can't wait to do it again. read more

Although the experience was fun, it lacked some key things. The instructor was not very helpful and felt extremely rushed. This was my first time, and I had no idea what to do when I got in the wind tunnel. It was like the experience was over in less than 5 minutes. Once it was over, there was no one to greet you off and/or offer you any souvenirs to purchase for your experience. It was kind of disappointing. Almost as if they couldn't wait for you to leave and on with the next. I know you have the option to select pictures/videos at the time of purchase, which I didn't do. However, I would have purchased this package after my experience if they had offered. Once I returned my equipment that was it. Umm okay, like goodbye, thank you for coming, anything? Invisible! read more

Rough my nephew and was a fun experience for him. The staff was very friendly and patient. My nephew is a high energy with lots of questions lol. They do a quick training, suit them up and get them lined up. They are in a group of others so they take turns. They offer an extra fly when you're there and will ask the guardian prior to the flyer since it comes at an additional cost. If the guardian says no, they won't offer to the flyer. They also ask how high the flyer wants to go. Going extra high is an extra cost so they ask the guardian before offering to the flyer. Pricing is expensive and there are lots of add ons. They offer huge discounts after you fly, so it is better to book something smaller, see how you like it and then buy a larger package after your fly. They are like 40-50% off of you wait. read more

5 stars for the experience, 5 stars for the friendly staff, 10 stars for Instructor Casey who did a fantastic job making a memorable experience for our 11 and 7 year old. Casey spoke on their level and created a cool and exciting atmosphere. When we arrived our 7 year old backed out..but Casey took over and encouraged him to get dressed in the gear with his brother and included him in the training etc. It was so appreciated that his experience was positive and "next time" he'll be comfortable to fly. Our 11 year old was all smiles and hang loose signs especially during the high flight...that is a must do!! Thanks Casey! (Sac ifly) read more

Came in one night with my wife and nephew. And asked about the packages and stuff they have available. We spoke to I believe his name was Brendan, if memory serves? And he helped explain everything very well. Told us to go on the website and fill out the information required and book a time slot. Came in the next day and our nephew had the best day ever. To the reviews complaining about the 'upselling' and whatnot- This is a business. And it's a splurge event. The whole thing is an up sell. Not entirely sure why there's a complaint about having the staff remind you of what else you can do in the flying tube before you go in. Spend the money, enjoy your time there. read more

First time experience, Besides not knowing anything past this place isn't a real sky diving service ( mind you I never have skydived before figured this is the next best thing to start off with your child , get to know them a little more before you jump out a plane with them . [ no pun ] ) I was surprised to watch my 9 year old daughter go in the wind tunnel before me without hesitation . . Unknowingly this place happens to create smiles. ( The Staff - All Dope , super nice and attentive ) Y'all really should have some Groupons for solo Fly experience or some short lessons to be able to wear some of the instructor helmets and do my own Fly stuff. read more

They over book people, and even though you have a set time you end up waiting a half hour or more for them to get to you. So seven people waiting while they get their act together. Pretty sad, gif this as a gift for our grandson, don't think I'll do it again. read more

So the wife wanted to give my daughter the best gift for her birthday. She definitely gave her the best gift with iFLY. Check in was super easy. The staff here are top notch. The flight instructor assigned to my kids group was the best. Now it's time to fly. I had tears coming out of my eyeballs seeing my kids reaction to flying. They were having the best time of their lives. Just seeing my kids happy made me the happiest dad in the world. I would totally recommend this place to any parents. Yes it can get pricey but well worth it. At the end they offer some smoking deals and I recommend you take advantage of them. We did. We get to come back with up to five people and each of us can fly for ten minutes. I won't tell you the price but let me say this, the after deal is cheaper than what I paid for two kids with photos, video and upgraded flies. Trust me you will love it here read more

Excellent resource for those training for their USPA parachute license. An excellent coach with over 500 parachute jumps helped me to practice my turns and forward/rear movement. This training saved me the money I would have spent to retake one of my jumps. I highly recommend for anyone who is looking to earn their A License. read more

Took my granddaughter for a flight. She had an incredible time! The instructor was so kind and attentive to the entire class. HOWEVER! I purchased a video of the flight and have had nothing but trouble getting it. I received my voucher quickly, but my granddaughter's flight is not on their web page with the others. They have not returned repeated calls and an email. Yes, it's only $8, but I wanted her parents to see how much fun she had. read more

Trying indoor skydiving has been on my husband's bucket list (which became mine as well ) for years. We were going to try it in Vegas a few years back but didn't have time. They finally opened one near Sacramento, so last year I decided to gift this as a birthday present for my husband. I went online to their website to check out the deals since there were no Groupon's available. The process was pretty simple. It's not cheap so I got two flights for both of us. We went during the afternoon on a weekday, so it wasn't that crowded. A kid's birthday party did come behind us though so we had to share our flight time with them. We checked in then waited because we had to watch the safety and procedure video. After the video, you get your flight gear; helmet ( you have two choices), suit, etc. You sit in the waiting area of the wind tunnel until it's your turn. They let us go first since it was only two of us then the birthday attendees could enjoy their flights. I was kinda nervous but said what the heck. I went first. I stepped in but couldn't breathe out my nose so I took in a bunch of air through my mouth. I could not catch my breath. I was trying to fly out of there but had 60 seconds. I was hyperventilating but nobody knew but me. The guy kept trying to straighten my legs and arms but I wasn't budging...I was trying to breath so I forgot all about the technique to fly. The time felt like it was going by so slow. I saw '0'. I was finally done. My husband asked if I was ok. I told him what happened and said I'm not getting back in; he could do my second flight...lol. So they take pictures while you're in there and you get to pick a picture. Oh my goodness I was like is that how i was looking.... I was wondering why the kids and parents were staring.... I can say I experienced it but if I ever do try it again I'll use the full face helmet instead of the goggles. read more

Got a voucher for my birthday and tried to book a reservation. Apparently they changed their voucher system and will keep giving me the run around on who I need to contact to redeem my voucher. When i call, no one answers or it says ifly is closed even though it's within business hours. They don't answer their calls and don't return our messages. And when you do get a hold of someone, they don't know what to do and will say they will call back when they won't. I got robbed of a birthday experience. Do not recommend this scam business. Very poor customer service. Still have vouchers that I have not been able to use. read more

Went here for a field trip with my daughter's class. Everyone had a blast. They incorporated STEM subjects in two classroom sessions. Loved how they explained how the fans worked.
