Ce fut une magnifique expérience, une vue à couper le souffle et des moniteurs à votre écoute et d'une grande sympathie. Pour novices et amateurs. Ça sera pour nous un moment inoubliable. MerciPosted on CécileTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. J’ai adoré ce premier vol en parapente !! Je suis venue avec mes amies pour mon EVJF, et nous avons été accompagnées par Pierrot, un moniteur exceptionnel : passionné, super sympa et qui met tout de suite à l’aise. Le vol était magique, avec une vue incroyable sur les vallées et la mer au loin. Pierrot a adapté chaque vol selon nos envies (plutôt tranquille ou avec plus de sensations fortes !), ce qui a rendu l’expérience encore plus unique. Son acolyte Olivier était génial aussi ; nous avons vraiment passé un super moment en leur compagnie. Je veux absolument y retourner !Posted on Ariane GarciaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous avons adoré nos vols avec Pierrot !
