This 62 year old adventurer LOVED the experience!
I'm a 62-year-old adventurer. I'm a skydiver, rock climber, surfer, skier, and mountain biker. I signed up for the "adrenaline" package and was not disappointed. My tandem pilot, Coco, sent us into some awesome spirals that had some of the strongest G-force I've ever felt. That was awesome, but the best part about the experience was the lifetime memory of looking at Mount Blanc and then down at the city of Chamonix. As Coco said, "There are not many other special cities in the world that you can fly over this close and this quietly."

Already my 10th paragliding flight, and still just as much fun! This time, I had the chance to fly with Meryl. Very friendly, smiling, and passionate, top-notch! She made this moment even more enjoyable, thanks again to her. Thanks for this superb experience 😊 I highly recommend!

A great paragliding experience
It was a great experience without a doubt, I am very afraid of heights and for me it was a great challenge but the guides explained to us at all times very well how the flight would be and gave us all the confidence Benito excellent and the other two young men who were my family's guides I don't remember their names a great team, highly recommended. 🇫🇷🇲🇽🇫🇷

Once in a lifetime memory
My husband and I paraglided with Remy and Lou Lou. Even though I was nervous they knew exactly what they were doing and kept me calm. The flight was amazing!!! We couldn’t have had a better flying experience with our awesome pilots and All Sports Chamonix. Would love to go with them again next time we visit

Great way to end a wonderful vacation
This was the perfect way to end our vacation. Our guides did a great job explaining everything to us and it was only 20-30 minutes from the time we met them to being airborne. The views were spectacular and we were blessed with great weather conditions. Even if you’ve experienced paragliding before, flying around Chamonix with the mountain range as a backdrop was very very special.
