Create some memories to last a lifetime!!! - This was amazing!!!! Soooo much fun and so worth it! My only advice would be to reach out to them before booking any train/transportation as they vary where they fly from. There was a review on here that gave instructions on the trains to get to Engelberg so I followed that… only to be picked up in Lucerne (where I was staying).

Exhilarating - Marcel and Ben are great pilots. We had two couples and went two at a time. The scenery was stunning and the ride exhilarating. Be sure and ask for the “roller coaster “ ride at the end.

You Have To - I cannot say enough good things about Freeminds. Our original booking date had rain and high winds in the forecast. The owner changed our date and location to be able to get our flights in. Our pilots were amazing, I am terrified of heights and they made me feel at ease. The pictures and videos they took are breathtaking, I have been home for two weeks now and can't stop looking at them. The smile on my son's face is priceless. Our flight from Mt. Pilatus had the snow capped Mt. Titlis on one side and Lake Lucerne on the other.

Best thing we did in Switzerland! - This is a must while in Switzerland! Lucern was a great location to book. Both of our flyers were very nice, patient with us, we were a little nervous. I mean you are jumping off a mountain!

Definitely recommend! - Great experience, highly recommend! Be aware, we booked for 4 people as permitted but only there were only two pilots so the second two people had to wait for 2 hours while the first group went and the pilots went back to the top to fly with them. The pilots were fantastic and our kids ages 12, 15 and 17 had a great time!

Amazing experience - must do in Switzerland - Amazing experience paragliding with my pilot Miki. The flight was easily organised with Sam and co-ordinated the pickup without issues. The flight itself was great - Miki made me feel safe and comfortable and even let me steer for a bit. Definitely recommend this experience

Eagle’s View of the Alps - What a great experience! Flying (yes, “like a bird”) over the Alps & Lake Lucerne….My friend and I had a marvelous time! Our pilots, Marcel (owner of the business) and Olie were simultaneously professional—and yet, so much fun!
During my flight, Olie sang a few Swiss Lieder in his great baritone—whereas, Marcel could be a professional photographer, his photographs of the flight were that good. The views were breathtaking, and our pilots so obliging, we couldn’t recommend Tandemflight Lucerne enough!

Great experience! - Both Freemind tour operators read our daughters perfectly - understanding that each had different needs. One daughter preferred to float and was offered the opportunity to direct the ride, and the other wanted to do tricks. It was great!
