My husband and I had a wonderful experience paragliding with Julio and Martin! Communication with Julio before the experience was easy and helpful; he helped us prepare what to bring and kept watch of the weather to ensure we knew in advance if we were going to be flying that day. The flight was perfect. All instructions were very clear and we felt safe. There was little wind that day, but Julio clearly communicated how we could take off powerfully and we got the full 25min flight from Rothorn. Great instructor and a perfect experience in Zermatt!

Julio was amazing and made me feel safe and secure. I'm terrified of heights and have only done this once before in Alaska nearly 20 years ago. Do it, can't recommend enough!
