Un superbe baptême de parapente en tandem avec ma sœur, chacune accompagnée d’un pilote. Sympas et détendus, Pierrot et Pierre-Yves nous ont tout de suite mises en confiance : aucune appréhension. Nous avons été agréablement surprises par la douceur du décollage et de l’atterrissage. Et entre les deux, des paysages magnifiques ! J’ai même pu prendre les commandes et diriger le parapente pendant quelques minutes… un vrai régal. Deux pilotes très professionnels, que nous recommandons sans hésiter pour un premier vol.

Best day out, we did paragliding and then the canyoning. Great value for money and our instruction was excellent we always felt very safe. I have done canyoning in a few countries and this was the best I have done by far. It was a beautiful gorge and had the clearest water. We would book again if we ever came back to the area for sure!

Absolut empfehlenswert! Es war mein erster Flug, aber die Professionalität und lockere Atmosphäre hat mich gleich sicher fühlen lassen. Die Umgebung war perfekt für den Flug, super Ausblick und gutes Timing. Und der Fluglehrer hat sich an meine persönlichen Bedürfnisse direkt angepasst. Ich werde diese Schule auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Alors, comment dire, un moment magique avec Pierrot qui a été d'une sympathie extraordinaire, très pédagogue dans ses explications et surtout qui te fait découvrir son magnifique" bureau " perché a plus de 1800 mètres d'altitude . Une expérience que je n'oublierai jamais et encore merci pour ce plaisir de voler pour la première fois 🪂 A bientôt ;)
