5.00The flight was amazing! I flew with Wolfgang who gave very clear instructions for the walk off the top, the flight, and the landing. He was very calming and I felt very safe. And because of that, when we were in the air, I was able to relax and enjoy the flight. The sunset, the looming dark clouds, the tree tops, the view of the world below my feet is an experience money cannot buy. From the day I booked the activity, Julien connected over whatsapp. He shared how to travel to site, adjusting my schedule to a sunset flight etc and always responded promptly via whatdapp. That helped ease my nerves as well. I felt looked after by the team! And the photos taken by Wolfgang were just amazing. It captured different angles and my entire flight. Forever greatful for a lifetime experience. Couldnt have asked for a better gift to celebrate my 60th year on earth!
Great first time fly

5.00This tandem paragliding was a really positive experience for my first time flying! I got to fly with Fabian and he was very kind and welcoming and spoke perfect English. I felt very at ease and everything was explained to me well. We got to see lakes to one side and the city of Salzburg on the other. Would highly recommend 👌
Indescribably beautiful & simple a MUST 🥰

5.00Was an indescribable and beautiful experience , the weather & thermals were completely on our side 🤗 & with my cool flight instructor/pilot Florian in our luggage we made the air over the city of Salzburg unsafe 🤗 Many thanks again to Florian at this point for the great experiences and the nice sightseeing tour over the local mountain Salzburg 🤗
Excellent!

5.00My pilot was the best 🤩 Very relaxed and funny he instructed me in everything very professionally before our flight. You can enjoy everything wonderfully and I was & am very overwhelmed. You feel that you are alive and free A great experience in the air at the positive mercy of the laws of nature. The environment was wonderfully explained and there was much laughter and admiration. You were allowed to play pilot for a short time - wonderful 💙👍🏻 This will definitely be repeated. Beware "addiction danger" With JoJo you have the best pilot 6 * plus 🤩 Thanks for everything 🪂❤️

5.00We selected the hang gliding over Königsee and the Berchtesgaden National Park. The ride was fantastic in every respect. Wolfgang and Tony were the conscientious and terrific pilots who put us at ease and helped us to enjoy every second. May be the most fun and exciting experience of our travels. Strongly recommend this outing and this company!
