Fantastic 5.0
I was so scared at first and almost didn't do it, but I’m so glad I changed my mind—it wasn’t scary at all! I felt pure happiness the entire time. The view over Interlaken was absolutely breathtaking, and this was hands down the best memory of my entire trip. Huge thanks to my pilot, Oli.B! He is highly professional, super funny, and incredibly nice. He completely put my mind at ease. On top of that, he takes amazing photos and videos! You definitely need to try this at least once. The skywings is top-notch and highly professional. If I ever come back to Interlaken, I will 100% fly with Oli.B again! 🪂✨

Lucas was nothing short of exceptional as my paragliding pilot. We drew pilots by lottery, and by pure luck, I got him. What made him stand out? His warm, approachable demeanor put me at ease right away, and he explained everything clearly, so I felt completely safe in his hands. His passion for what he does shines through in everything he does. His voice is as calm as the sky itself, steady and soothing while we floated above the world. His skill is beyond measure, and he loves showing what paragliding can really do. He took me through roller-coaster swoops, let me skim my foot across the treetops, and even taught me how to steer. On top of all that, he captured fantastic photos and videos of the flight. I highly recommend Lucas to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and unforgettable experience in the air.

This was truly an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience. The plane flew to Interlaken, and the skydiving spot was a bit further out. The shuttle bus was very punctual, which made it easy for me to plan other activities after skydiving. The instructors there were also very friendly!

Had a great flight with the team and my pilot Kurt! Lucky for a great weather. Wish the flight time was longer. The view was awesome, the "roller coaster" was so adrenaline filled! Definitely recommend.

Great 4.0
Hotel location: Right next to Interlaken West train station, which is very convenient. It's also a 20-minute walk from West Station to East Station. Room: Not large but comfortable, with a small balcony. Breakfast: A little bit of everything. Cleanliness: It was ideal, but strangely, there was a slight odor.

It's very convenient to purchase through Klook. Each person receives a ticket with their own name and a QR code, so there's no need to print it out. Whenever a staff member checks tickets, just show the QR code for them to scan. With a Swiss Travel Pass, even if you take the wrong train, you don't have to worry about paying extra fare. It's recommended that traveling companions also take a screenshot, just in case there's an issue with the phone, so there's a spare. Sometimes you need to pay attention to the seats, which will indicate which station to which station they are reserved for; if you see that, do not sit there. This time I used the pass to take free cable cars, boats, and so on. Although the pass is expensive, it is totally worth it.

a better option and more pocket friendly than the STP, especially if combined with other tickets like the gonegrat bahn zermatt or jungfrau travel pass. cannot recommend enough as travelling in swiss alone is $$$. easy to use and if conducter comes to check, just present the QR code that is provided once this ticket is purchased. thanks Klook for this offer!
