An unforgettable experience for our daughter! - Today our daughter's two-year-old wish came true! Thanks to Robert's very personable, humorous, child-friendly and professional manner, we as parents immediately trusted you to take our nine-year-old daughter on a tandem paragliding flight. Our daughter thought the flight was just super cool! She also thought it was great that she was even allowed to control the plane a little herself. She would love to fly again straight away! Thank you again for the unforgettable experience for our daughter and the great pictures we received from you. Since our daughter is so enthusiastic, even I am considering whether I should dare to take a tandem flight myself.

A dream came true. - I am still overwhelmed and full of happiness from this unforgettable experience. Thanks to Robert, I was able to experience a wonderful and breathtaking tandem flight. His calm, friendly, funny and cheerful manner as well as his competent and professional support gave me immediate confidence, so that I could enjoy the freedom in the air in a completely relaxed manner. It was simply amazing, so much fun and all with a fantastic panorama. I was able to steer the plane myself at times and at the end I did a bit of acrobatics = pure adrenaline, simply WOW!! Thank you so much Robert for the great photos and videos that make my heart beat faster every time I look at them. I am looking forward to experiencing another flight with Robert on my next visit to Switzerland and would highly recommend him.

eye opening and once in a lifetime if you dont do such activities - I owe Peter a review. On the get go, he explained to me what needed to be done for the ride to go smoothly To be honest he does it out of interest than anything else Getting a ride in his Tesla was an added bonus All in all, paragliding with the Alps in view is something one has to do once in their lifetime

Once is all you need. - Robert and Peter are quick to get us up and going. Their office is easy to find, next to the gondola. Parking was easy too. The ticket for the gondola was not included in the price of the paraglide, gopro videos and photos are $30 Swiss franc extra per person. The entre process include you helping to carry a heavy bag (approximate 30 pounds) to hike up to the the launch site. Make sure you are in tip-top physically shape, being strong and agile to do the 21 minute beautiful cliff side hike. All these efforts are extra bonuses to fly over the beautiful Davos city with lakes and mountains. The paragliding itself was merely approximately 15 minutes, but that all the time we had.
