Julio was excellent and very knowledgeable. This was my first time doing this type of activity so I had a couple questions but Julio had a very calm demeanor and made the process very enjoyable. For the cost, however, the Gornegat one way train fee should be included with the expensive price tag. For now, get ready to drop an additional 40 or so Franks to get to the top, and 40 or so Franks for you pictures/video of the trip, making it a plus $500 price tag. I didn't mind paying for the pictures, but the transportation fee not being included was a bit of a letdown. Everything else was perfect! Highly recommend

中文 在Flybypara的飛行傘體驗,完全超出預期。 從Gornergrat起飛,俯瞰冰川與整個小鎮,畫面非常震撼。即使日落之後,Matterhorn被雲稍微遮住,依然壯觀。 Julio 非常友善,過程中自然聊天,��至聊到人生,讓這趟飛行多了一種很有人情味的溫度。不是一個「完成行程」,而是一段會留下來的體驗。 ⸻ French The paragliding experience with Flybypara far exceeded my expectations. Take-off from Gornergrat offers impressive views of the glaciers and the village. Even after sunset, with the Matterhorn partially hidden by clouds, the scenery remains spectacular. Julio is very warm, he takes the time to exchange naturally, even about life, which makes the human experience memorable, well beyond a simple activity. ⸻ English The paragliding experience with Flybypara was beyond expectations. Taking off from Gornergrat, you get breathtaking views over glaciers and the town. Even after sunset, with the Matterhorn partly hidden by clouds, it’s still incredibly impressive. Julio is genuinely friendly and chats with you throughout the flight—even about life—making it feel personal and meaningful rather than transactional. A truly memorable experience.

For my last day in Zermatt I went to paragliding something that I always Wanted to do. Julio was very nice and experienced. We ended up staying up there longer than expected and enjoyed the gliding for a long time. I got the Matterhorn package and got to see to see this beautiful peak and all the surroundings from bird’s eye view for a long time. I highly Recommend Julio with over 35 years of experience.

I had an amazing 20-minute paragliding flight. From the very beginning, the pilot showed a lot of confidence and professionalism, which made me feel safe the entire time. He really cared about making sure I understood the whole process, explaining everything clearly and patiently. He was also very enthusiastic and friendly, which made the experience even better. You can truly tell that he loves what he does and that passion makes a big difference. I would definitely recommend this company 100%.

No words can really express what a fantastic time my wife and I had today. The pilots were very kind and we all got along great. Their instructions were easy to follow and made us feel comfortable the entire time. The flight itself and the views was one of the best I have ever experienced.
