Fantastic 5.0
I had an absolutely amazing paragliding experience in Interlaken today at 4 PM! My pilot, Nico, was incredible – so friendly, informative, and professional from the very start. He explained everything clearly, which made me feel completely safe and comfortable, and his calm, trustworthy manner really put me at ease before takeoff. The flight itself was breathtaking – soaring over the stunning scenery was unforgettable. Nico even added a bit of a rollercoaster twist towards the end, which was so much fun and made the experience even more thrilling! This was truly one of the best experiences of my life. If you’re in Interlaken and thinking about paragliding, I cannot recommend it enough – and if you get Nico as your pilot, you’re in for a fantastic time!

it was without a doubt an amazing experience! we booked on klook the day before because we wanted to see the weather forecast. it was a bit cloudy but we proceed with the activity with no issues. I had Matthias as my pilot. I was a bit nervous so he explained everything and put my mind at ease and he listened to my request to not do any crazy tricks. it was a 11/10. would definitely recommend them 👍

The location is right next to the Interlaken West station, with a door from the platform leading directly into the hotel. There's a supermarket next to the hotel, and the shops in town are all within walking distance, making it very convenient!

it was absolutely breathtaking experience exploring the views of Switzerland. The ticket price was expensive but it is worth the penny if you make use of it! plus, the stunning and out of this world snowy scenery of Switzerland made it more worth the visit. would like to go back to Swiss during summer!

Seamless travel with the Half Fare Card.Saved a lot of money when purchasing the tickets for train, which is essential for traveling in Switzerland. Some attractions that we went to are also valid for half price. The only complain is that we cannot put the pass into the SBB app so its a little inconvenient. Other than that, all is good!
