Amazing Canyoning Experience, but Extremely Disappointed by the Video Package I Received

Really dissappointed. Received edited footage without audio and captioning over my videos, and cutting off important monents, not the promised raw clips even when was told i couldnt use my secure go pro helmet . I’ll gladly update my review if resolved.

great experience

The whole process was extremely smooth and enjoyable end to end, from pickup and driving to the launch point, to landing and retrieving our stuff from the shop. My tandem pilot, Pascal, was really fun and upbeat. He did a great job at making me feel at ease while giving quite the adrenaline rush with the dives and swoops with the parachute. Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Switzerland!

Our family of four went paragliding together. All of our pilots (Jero, Mat, Patrick, Krishna) were fantastic (and encouraging to those of us who had a bit of trepidation. 😁) The takeoff was easy, the ride itself was peaceful and views were breathtaking. You have a choice of “romantic” (peaceful) or crazy ride (flips) and my husband thoroughly enjoy his “crazy” ride while the rest of us were happy being “romantic”. 😂 I’d definitely get the photos/videos to remember the experience. 10/10 would recommend Paragliding Interlaken!

Operator response

We’re also glad you enjoyed the smooth takeoff, breathtaking views, and the photo/video package.

We were a family of 4 and half of us were very nervous. However, we pushed through to have the experience as a family. So glad we did! It was amazing and our flyers were great! It is a beautiful and relaxing experience!

This was an absolutely amazing experience! I was a little nervous before, but I flew with Gionni and he was so great. He made sure I was comfortable with everything- how high we were, how much movement there was, if the equipment was comfortable, etc. The view of Interlaken was surreal and truly a one in a lifetime experience. The pics and videos are also definitely worth it at the end
