Tandem Paragliding Experience from Interlaken

Posted By : Katie_C
Being in Interlaken, I knew I wanted to paraglide over the city and the Alps. Despite the rain, the company let us reschedule for the next day. It was an unforgettable experience that I recommend to everyone.

Felt like a bird in flight. Dan was my guide. He did a great job making me feel comfortable and have a nice time.

I have been looking forward to doing this for 5 years! I was super excited and a bit nervous that afternoon. The weather had cleared up and the sun came out. It was a beautiful, clear day to go paragliding. I had the unfortunate luck of drawing Luke as my pilot. He was grumpy and negative. I didn't know that I had to run down a hill for take-off. And if you have a bad knee, which I do, it could be challenging. I learned about this after we got into the van to get to the take-off point in the mountains when the lead pilot explained this to our group. When I expressed my knee issue to Luke, he seemed frustrated and said I should have informed the front office of my limitation. He was not encouraging or positive. It had snowed that early morning and the days before and the snow was just melting in the afternoon which made the grounds really slippery. We had to hike about 10 minutes to the take-off point and during that hike, I slipped a few times even with the hiking boots they provided. Luke didn't offer me any assistance. He went to set up the parachute and asked me to go downhill to join him. I was afraid of slipping again in the snow. Nicoli, the other pilot who my friend draw, was so nice. He saw my hesitation and came over to lead me over to my pilot by hand. Nicoli was my friend's pilot. He was very helpful, positive and encouraging. They allow you to choose your own pilot. I would have chosen Nicoli had I known! We didn't know who was good so we just drew cards with their names of written on the cards randomly. I was unlucky that I drw Luke. Luke, my pilot also asked me to hold his gloves while prepping, and his selfie stick when we were in the air. I was already nervous. Instead of helping me ease my anxiety, he made me work, which I really didn't mind. It was just his grumpy attitude, and I felt like I was servercing him instead of the other way around. The ride was beautiful and he became a little nicer once in the air. But overall, I would not recommend Luke. He should not be in the client-serving business at least based on his performance that day. I recommend Nicoli!

This was an outstanding experience. Initially terrified, my operator, Matteo, quickly put me at ease. I felt not only safe but comfortable. If I could give more than five stars I would. I highly recommend this excursion.

Absolutely incredible experience. I had unbelievable expectations are they were far exceeded. Luke, the pilot, was amazing.

My husband I did paragliding this past week and it was absolutely amazing. I went with Krisha and he was fantastic. We had a great ride and he was very personable. The pictures came out amazing and it was a huge highlight of our trip.

Booked this as a surprise birthday present for my partner, and we both had the best time. We were very lucky to have a sunny 26 degrees day. Both of our pilots were really amazing. My partner especially loved it since she loves sky diving. I'm not very good with height, but my pilot was very considerate, and he would check on how I'm doing constantly. Best activity we did in Switzerland. Would 10/10 recommend.

Truly an unreal experience from the start to flying over Interlaken. I went with my three other siblings & it was all of our first time ever being in the air like this ever. Me and my sister are afraid of heights as a preface. The van picked us up from the shop & there were three other people with my siblings & I. They drove us up the mountain, which kept getting higher as the seconds passed us, while one of the team members, began chatting with us on what to expect and to sign a waiver. He allowed us to pick our team member and we decided to do it at random. When we got out of the van and at the top of the mountain, we matched up with our partner and they spread us out throughout the mountain and got all of their equipment ready, my team member was Tom. He was fantastic, he explained to me that I have to run as fast as I can and even if I think I’m in the air continue to run harder. I had a beautiful departure from land, unlike my brother, who stopped running because he thought he was airborne but he wasn’t and him & his partner fell and tumbled and had to try again so definitely keep running! But he said it was worth it and it definitely was. 10/10 would do it again.
