5.00This was an experience of a lifetime! We felt so safe the whole time and the instructors (gionni) were so experienced. Get the pictures, they are so cool!
Great experience, may vary by pilot and wind

5.00Really fun activity and absolutely gorgeous over the Interlaken valley. Felt safe at all times. Very easy to takeoff and land. I got lucky with my pilot, Timo, a really nice guy, catching an updraft and getting more time and acrobatics in flight. Of my family of four, we all had a good time. Flight patterns and length depend on the wind, but also on the pilot making an effort. My wife didn't get to go over the lake and mostly stayed close to the ground the entire flight. It wasn't quite as enjoyable for her.
Gliding through the sky-smooth and enjoyable

5.00Best experience! I was nervous about take off and landing but both were very easy and not intimidating at all. Start on a grass hill and land in a grass field. Smooth ride, very professional guides who have a ton of experience. The guide also took amazing video and photos. Highly recommend!!!
Fantastic experience with a great team

1.00Really dissappointed. Received edited footage without audio and captioning over my videos, and cutting off important monents, not the promised raw clips even when was told i couldnt use my secure go pro helmet . I’ll gladly update my review if resolved.
great experience

5.00The whole process was extremely smooth and enjoyable end to end, from pickup and driving to the launch point, to landing and retrieving our stuff from the shop. My tandem pilot, Pascal, was really fun and upbeat. He did a great job at making me feel at ease while giving quite the adrenaline rush with the dives and swoops with the parachute. Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Switzerland!
