Absolutely EPIC!!! - Absolutely EPIC!!! Felt very safe with the great pilots and enjoyed one of the greatest experiences in my 52 years of life. Closest thing to flying you can get. At the end of it all, we regret the things we DON'T do, not the things we did.

Sensational way to see the beauty of Switzerland - and exhilarating! - This was hands down one of the highlights of our trip to Switzerland. The views were nothing short of extraordinary. The process was very smooth, and our tandem guides were great. 10/10 recommend!

Experience you do not want to miss when going to Interlaken - My family had a mostly wonderful time doing the paragliding experience. The staff was helpful, courteous, and funny. We were quite relaxed when we were up in the air and were able to enjoy the amazing view we get to see. The only set back was we all kind of got motion sickness not from paragliding but from the ride up to the top of the mountain before the experience. My family felt a bit more noxious after doing some turnings up in the air triggered by the motion sickness beforehand. My suggestion would be for the driver to slow down just a bit going up, and for others who are prone to motion sickness to premedicate first. Overall we had a blast and was glad we did this.

Sky Enthusiast - The staff is amazing, friendly, and knowledgeable. The views are one of a kind. You see both rivers and the city from above and it feels amazing in the sky on a good day. Unfortunately, I felt nauseuous after doing the little swirl around in the air but I think it was because I had been drinking water prior to. Nevertheless, I would do it again, and recommend doing it. You don't have to do any tricks in the sky, they ask if you want to, so it does depend on your preference. I felt safe the entire time with my pilot Gerald from Spain (great guy).

JUST DO IT! - My husband and I had an amazing experience paragliding for the first time! I was with Zeno and he was with Jero and they both made it very memorable. You first check in at the city center where you can leave your bags in a locker placed behind the front desk. If your bag is small enough, you can put it in the backpack with your paraglider. They provide boots if you don’t feel that your shoes as strapped on tightly, and they also provide helmets and windbreakers with zippered pockets. On the van ride up the mountain (about 20ish minutes), they explain what to expect with clear instructions. The mood inside the van was so light as they played upbeat music and were cracking jokes— this helped lessen the anxious feeling! You can choose to pay extra for videos and pictures and they’ll bring their GoPro and takes lots of videos and pictures. You need to get them, so worth it! They’ll ask you beforehand if you want to have a “romantic” or “crazy” ride. We opted for half and half and it was so much fun. But at the end of the “crazy” maneuvers, I felt a little nauseous so just keep that in mind if you have motion sickness. We were up in the air for maybe 20 minutes. Tip: you need to run, run, run at the start to prevent having to start it over again. We saw someone stop, fall, and they had to do it again. Overall, such a wonderful experience and I’m so glad we did it!

Fantastic, well run operation. - These guys are clearly the most reputable paragliding operation in Interlaken. Multiple languages are spoken, the staff is very friendly, and it's a perfect location right across from the landing zone in the park. Our teenagers both landed with huge grins and requests to go again. Tip for those who want to stay below and watch the landing – have your crew wear something distinctly colored (pants/shoes) so you can spot them. There are many paragliders so finding the ones you want to see can be difficult.
