5.00Amazing paragliding experience in Zermatt! The team was super friendly and professional, and made me feel safe and have a lot of fun the whole time. The flight was incredible — long, with absolutely breathtaking views. My guide even let me control the paraglider and we did some fun tricks, which made it even more unforgettable. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting Zermatt — definitely a must-do!

5.00Our pilots were so experienced and professional about everything from the start. I never felt nervous because they talked us through the process. The views were breathtaking. Our pictures look like a postcard. We saw a bunch of animals and even got to play around in the sky towards the end. Highly recommend!
Awesome!!

5.00Made a last minute decision to call them and in less than 45 minutes, was jumping off the mountain to witness one of the most beautiful views in the world. The flight was safe, informative and fun at the same time. Would definitely recommend it to all.

5.00We were a little nervous about paragliding as we have never done it before. Our pilots Bruce and Chris put us at ease with their expert knowledge! They were fun and willing to do what you were comfortable with in the air. It was a ride of a lifetime and highly recommended going with them and Matterhorn paragliding.

5.00Most amazing experience from the initial booking to the landing! Alan was very patient since I was nervous and a bit scared. But within moments of takeoff I was laughing and awe struck and so very happy! Such a special way to see the Alps and especially the Matterhorn. A memory for a lifetime!
Flight of a lifetime

5.00I loved this! At first (before booking online) I was a little nervous about doing this. But once I got there, I was fine. My main focus was on the "run" that I didn't concern myself with getting spooked. I think my guide was Alan, and he totally prepared me and took me on the flight of a lifetime. Matterhorn view was amazing too!
10/10 Experience

5.00Our guides were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and overall this was such a great experience. If you care a lot about photos or video footage, I would recommend asking a few questions before getting started. My partner was able to hold and control the camera and ended up with great footage, knowing exactly when it was on and how to use it. For me, it was a bit unclear when the camera was active or when I should look at it or smile while the guide was holding it, so some of my footage turned out a little wonky and not quite as clear. That said, the guides were excellent listeners and tailored the experience to what we wanted. Definitely let them know if you’re looking for something more chill or more active. I also really appreciated how responsive the company was to every message. Thank you for a wonderful time!

5.00Chris was absolutely incredible. I was very nervous going into this experience, but he gave me the smoothest, calmest, most amazing ride imaginable. I was able to fully relax and take in the views the entire time. He explained everything clearly, made me feel completely safe, and his confidence and skill were evident from start to finish. This ended up being one of the highlights of our trip, and I would 100 percent recommend Chris to anyone. An unforgettable experience thanks to him.
