One-of-a-kind and thrilling experience!…read more As a first-timer paraglider I was definitely nervous but the guys and gals working at Twin Paragliding put you at ease. They are each very personable, each pilot has their own personality but each will make sure you feel completely safe. These guys are fun and enthusiastic and that helps you get excited pre-flight but also makes the time in the air that much more exciting. We met Twin Paragliding by the train station and they have a white van that takes you to the base camp at Interlaken. At base, you'll be fitted with shoes (should you not be wearing durable hiking boots) and after a few quick moments, you'll be back in the van headed up towards the mountain with all pilots in tow. On the ride up, Peter, who is super sociable, will introduce you to the paragliding experience and describe some of the beauty you'll be witnessing once at the highest point. The ride up alone is pretty breathtaking as the views just keep getting better and better the higher you go. On the van you'll choose which pilot you want to fly with and also sign the invoice papers. Then after about a 20 minute ride, you'll be at the launch point. On a clear day, its absolutely gorgeous with some snow scattered on the plains but with a clear view of Interlaken. You get set up fairly quickly and your pilot will equip you with the harness, helmet, and gloves. They'll then take some GoPro photos at the launch point and then you're ready to go. Listen to your pilot on how to take off because it can be tricky for first-timers. You'll want to lean forward, run as fast as you can, and run on solid ground because you'll be fighting the pull of the pilot and parachute. No matter what you do, don't stop! Then within a few steps of running you'll be off! It's an unbelievable feeling of flight as the air swoops under your legs and you become light as a feather. The pilot then smoothly swings the seat underneath you and you're in for a real treat. My pilot Dany had 22 years of flight experience so he operated a smooth ride. There will be points where you do some cool manuevers by catching the right thermals and definitely multiple opportunities to take photos and video. The whole experience is amazing and you'll be in air for a fair amount of time, definitely enough to see all of Interlaken and try out different flight patterns in air. I would say it takes a little over an hour all said and its worth every penny. Once you land, you'll head back to base camp and there your pilot will pull up your photos from the GoPro and so you'll be able to review immediately whether you want to purchase the photos. It costs 40CHF and worth it because how many times can you say you were soaring over the beautiful Interlaken? There are a lot of choices for paragliding in Switzerland. Twin Paragliding definitely felt like the best of the bunch. The pilots are cool and engaging and they all want you to have a great time. Like any lot, some pilots are more to your liking so you can ask ahead if say you want to do more manuvers in the air or you want a pilot who loves to take more photos. Never fear, Twin has a roster of over 20 pilots so you'll be in good hands no matter who you choose. There are even female pilots for those that feel more comfortable flying with a lady. All said I would recommend Twin Paragliding to anyone. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience and you want to do it with people who make sure that experience is a great one.

AMAZING! So glad we were able to book this in Interlaken…read more Carolyn was so much fun, so much professional experience and I had a blast!! Highly recommend to everyone! Easy to get picked up and contact via phone if needed. They took us up a mountain and gave a safety/instructional info during the ~15 min ride. Then we were on the mountain having a blast! Photos/Videos are a little extra, but so worth it for this once in a lifetime experience over the Swiss Alps.

There are a lot of paragliding companies in the area, but Paragliding Jungfrau came highly recommended, takes off from Top of First, and gave us spectacular views of the Eiger, Jungfrau, Northface, and Aletsch Glacier. It was also easy - from start to finish, it was less than 1.5 hours - 30 minute gondola to the top, 15 mins walking to the take off site and prep, and 20-25 minutes in the air. Spectacular and highly recommend!

I talked to our hotel desk and they called Urs from Freeminds. Even though it was 2pm in the afternoon he was able find time for myself and my two girls (14 and 11yo). Urs and Julio were our guides and were very accomodating. We met them at one of the gondolas and rode to the top where we hiked up a small hill. Julio took my 14yo first. You should have heard her screams of delight as they took flight! Later it was my turn along with my 11yo. Urs took me and Julio took my 11yo. We were both in the air at the same time so I could see her flying which was cool. Sometimes below us and sometimes above us. We all stayed in the air about an hour each. I had a great time with Urs. We flew around one mountain catching the thermals to gain elevation then flew to another mountain where I could see the rugged terrain and high alpine areas. Then we flew over to another mountain where we caught more thermals. I could see another more rugged side of Mr Titlas from this area which was very cool. We then flew back to Engelberg. Urs let me take the controls as we went back! Finally, we did a few tricks right before we landed gently in an open field. What an experience it was! Well worth the money and now my kids have something to talk about for years to come. Thanks Urs and Julio for a world class experience!!!
