Sebastian was the absolute BEST! He made the paragliding experience seamless, fun and informative. I felt safe the entire time. He is truly a professional who has a love for the experience that really shines through in the way he talks about it. I cannot recommend him enough. I feel extremely lucky to have gotten him for my tandem paragliding experience. If you are in Chamonix, this is an absolute must do! Thank you again Sebastian!
