Went when they had a discount!Easy to find location, friendly staff, and overall such a great experience (I’ve gone... twice now).You need a LOT of patience if it’s your first time. Expect to be there for a few hours as you will need to complete waivers, rewatch the safety video, pay and then wait for the actual departure time. Our booking was for 10am and we didn’t actually get to skydive until 2/3pm. Weather permitting and depending on how many other divers there are.If it’s your first time I highly recommend getting the full video package as you WILL forget the experience since everything happens so quickly.BEST OF LUCK 🙂read more

How do you begin to describe an experience like this? Unfortunately, there aren’t words to give justice to it, but, I... will start with my instructor, Baxter... I absorbed every moment of that jump, it took a solid hour for my adrenaline to wind down. I didn’t doubt the process because you never left me feeling as though if I neglected to do something that you didn’t have it covered. The entire team is solid and knowledgeable. If you are considering video/photo packages, do it! The quality and quantity of what they provide is exceptional. I had no mental capability of focusing on a camera and they still got shots that were amazing. Skydive Chicago is a well oiled machine. Not any part of this left me wishing for anything different. Thank you all, so much for a day unlike any other! You’re # 1! Ps, office ladies, did we miss our names being called 😉 sorry for stalking you all so many times, just know you are appreciated.read more

I spent weeks trying to get a hold of someone on the phone about a skydive purchased that had to be used within a year.... I never reached anyone. I finally had to just drive there, again, and hope to skydive. Now it is post my first tandem and I want to purchase my second tandem before signing up for classes to get my license, and again, I can't get a hold of someone to purchase my second skydive. It makes me really wonder if another drop zone is a better idea, since getting a hold of anyone has proven impossible. Also, the second tandem price online is stated at $129, while the price in the first tandem pamphlet is $149.As far as the skydive itself, I felt very safe. The place is nice. But if you want to do a skydive, you just have to go there and plan on spending the day, and expect to be disappointed if the clouds do not cooperate. The experience is only positive by actually going there. Since I live over a two hour drive away, this very fact of only getting things done by having to go, such as even purchasing a second skydive, would eat four hours, because they can't seem to answer the phone. This lack of customer service seems to override the total experience.read more

We stayed there thru the Harvest Host program as we are traveling across the country in our travel trailer so it was... the perfect opportunity to skydive. Everything about it was awesome!!! If we didn't live so far away I would definitely be visiting again to take advantage of the second jump. The instructors were all super nice more than willing to answer any questions or concerns. We met the owner that evening talking about the whole Harvet Host program...hos little boy and my little girl played for a little while.... just an all around great experience!!!read more

Great facility and people. Saw everyone following COVID guidelines. Very professional yet super friendly. I was even... able to pin a picture of my late husband (granted a lot of safety pins) to honor him for this jump! If you're nervous, they will definitely put you at ease and make it the best thing ever. Great place, people and instructors. Highly recommend!!!!read more
