A must do experience when visiting Chamonix. Unbeatable views. The pilot was very experienced and made me feel safe at all times. Get the video and say yes to the stunts.

I had the most incredible tandem paragliding experience today with Oliver from Kailash Parapente in Brévent, Chamonix, and I genuinely can’t recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, Oliver was calm, professional and hugely reassuring. I felt completely safe the entire time, which allowed me to relax and fully enjoy the experience. What made it even more special was that Oliver let me pilot during the flight, which was both thrilling and empowering. Flying over the Chamonix valley, with the ski runs and dramatic Alpine scenery beneath us, was absolutely scintillating – truly breathtaking in every sense. The sensation was exhilarating, peaceful and joyful all at once. It is, without question, the best thing I have ever done. Oliver’s skill, confidence and passion made this an unforgettable experience and a memory I will treasure forever. If you’re considering paragliding in Chamonix, do not hesitate – book with Oliver. Thank you so much for such a memorable experience. Ellen

Oliver was super friendly, easy going, and at the same time his confidence and skill put me at ease. I’m 67yo and was a bit worried about how physical it would be. Oliver talked me through the only challenge physically (taking off) and it was easy. During the flight, Oliver let me take the controls for a while and it was amazing. I would recommend this experience to anyone.

My wife and I had the experience of our lives. It was the highlight of our trip and we will certainly remember this fondly. Very professionally run and both Eric and Olivier are very skilled. They had a great sense of humor and kept checking in on us all along the flight. This gave us memories of a lifetime. Highly recommended!

Reschedule for the weather and retry the afternoon after the scheduled event. It was gas gas, but I took it off. Acrobatics was like a roller coaster, with my immature English being kindly addressed and I allowed to fly. Scale scenery and freedom of flight that cannot be experienced in Japan. If I want, I want revenge again on a finer day.

After several years in the mountains and not having booked an introductory flight, Chamonix felt as the place to do it! When Googling for the right party I came across Kaïlash Parapente and it turned out to be the perfect choice. Olivier was a welcoming and ‘down to earth’ pilot, convincing me that his 15k flights would provide us a safe, acrobatic and memorable flight. And it turned out to be the case! Enjoyed his ambition to win by becoming the paraglider that reached the highest altitude. Had the opportunity to steer myself and we did some acrobatics. Definitely recommend this party. Merci Olivier!

We went there less than a week ago and it was a great experience! Breathtaking view, super friendly and comforting monitor if you have a little jitters. Joy, the feeling of being a child who discovers the beauty of the world and guaranteed sensation!!!
