An absolutely jaw-dropping experience with views that took our breath away! 🏔️🪂 The glider guides were top-notch — super professional and incredibly knowledgeable about the weather. They managed to plan the perfect slot so we could fly safely and land just before a thunderstorm rolled in. We had only this one chance after traveling 10,000 km, and thanks to their expertise, we didn’t miss it. So grateful for the amazing team — a once-in-a-lifetime adventure!

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!

Excelent experience with my guide Julio! Super views of the Matterhorn and the mountains around. Very good communication. I felt safe all the moment. If I can, I’ll repeat for sure with him in the future.
