Awesome, not to miss! - The whole experience was awesome, beginning from customer service to safety and satisfaction!! We booked a last minute flight and met up at Gornergrat top station. I was a little nervous at the beginning but the paragliding Pilot and crew were very encouraging and made this a once in a lifetime experience! Highly recommended!!

Breathtaking experience - Hands down the most surreal 1/2 hour of my life souring among the clouds, over the snow and ravines. Total professionals - Norbert and the team encouraged me the whole time and I felt safe throughout. Amazing experience- any doubt just do it.

Must-Do! - We had such a great time with Matterhorn Paragliding - my husband and I went this past weekend, and it was the highlight of our trip in Switzerland! We booked through Viator.com, and Larissa was lovely - reached out right away to confirm, then emailed with updates, and was extremely kind & easy to work with! The day-of, we met with Alan & Jan - it was a rather windy day, causing delays on "take-off". We are so grateful they were willing to wait it out, and remain hopeful we could continue. We felt they were the perfect blend of keeping us safe, but also trying their best to get the experience to happen for us. Many other tour companies were giving up and re-scheduling their bookings, but this was our last day in Zermatt and we wouldn't have been able to re-book. Luckily, the winds died down, and we had an amazing time & great photos. It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and well worth it! We are so happy we chose Matterhorn Paragliding, not only for the paragliding, but the customer service. Alan was funny & entertaining, but also helpful to the tourists around, offering advice & jokes - you can tell he values your experience in Zermatt - he was truly a pleasure to be around. The only thing to be aware of - the price of the paragliding ticket does not include the price of the train going up the mountain - that is an extra cost, and not cheap! Regardless, it was well worth it, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this company & excursion to anyone! Thanks so much, Alan & Jan! :)

Perfect pilot - Thank you for the extraordinary experience of being able to fly in Zermatt with an extraordinarily beautiful view of the Matterhorn, especially a big thank you to my pilot Alan, he was very friendly and I was given a rollercoster attraction experience, not bored at all. He is a highly recommended pilot.

Highly Recommended for an Awesome Flight - Highly recommended. Pilot Allan and Bruce are the best. They make the flight fun, comfortable, and safe. Prep talks and instructions for take off and landing are very clear. And at the height of 3100m, the take off from snowy Rothorn felt safe with these guys... We enjoyed their stories while in flight, and the views are simply stunning. We got to see the city of zermatt and tasch from above and even got to see mountain deers, birds, and waterfalls. And to top it all, our pictures and videos are awesome. We will always remember this experience and we hope we can do it again. Thanks guys!

Spectacular!!! - Spectacular experience gliding over the town of Zermatt with Bruce! He was an excellent pilot and guide, teaching me specifics about the seasons, the alps, the valleys, avalanche control, weather and flight conditions. I got to stare at the Matterhorn with the clouds below us. On our descent we went through the clouds onto the direction of the halo! It was such a mystical experience! I highly recommend this trip and this company. Thanks Bruce!
