We will go and fly together from the Planpraz or Plan de l'Aiguille station. I will explain you everything about the mountains and how to fly in Chamonix. If you want, you can pilot the wing over the valley, and learn the basic of flying. For more adventurous people, we can do accrobatics and have a big adrenaline rush! Under a paraglider there is no fear of height (yes that is true! It is like looking through the window of a plane). No skills are required except running a few steps at the take off. And the landing in the center of Chamonix is very smooth. You can add the option for photos and videos of the flight if you want to keep a great souvenir.

FlywithFlo Paragliding near Lucerne Switzerland
We will take off from Mount Niederbauen for a Panorama flight (10-20 minutes) in Emmetten. If it's possible we will try to flight over the peak of Niederbauen. From there you have an amazing view over the lake Lucerne and to Gotthard, the main reach of the Alps. We can choose other take offs like Engelberg or Biehlen. It always depends on the wind for this day. There are a lot of different landing and takeoff places around. This is the reason cause Swiss is one of the best countries for paragliding and "hike and fly" tours. We can take off and land almost everywhere if the landowner allows it. The basic requirement for the start is that the passenger is able to walk a few steps because we have to accelerate for the start in order to take off. The landing is relatively easy, as the pilot and passenger straighten up and take a step before touching the ground. After landing there is the possibility to have a look and purchase photos and videos (cost 30 franks extra) made during the flight by the pilot. Other things to note: Costs for cablecar, parking, transfer are NOT INCLUDED to the price. Paragliding is not an extreme sport in Swiss by the opinion of the insurance. The possibility to get hurt is much lower than with skiing or driving a motorbike. There are more than 14000 active pilots in Switzerland.
Paraglide over Verbier
Experience the thrilling sensation of soaring like a bird with a tandem parapente flight over Verbier. You don’t require any experience or level of fitness to paraglide with us….just sit back and enjoy the ride! Your pilots will be twin brothers Mike and Stu, who have been in the flying industry for more than 20 years and have over 24,000 flying hours between them! The twins are true professionals and have worked in every aspect of the paragliding industry including working as stunt pilots. Accredited by the FSVL, BHPA and OFAC, you could not be in more experienced hands! We are waiting to share our passion with you. RECOMMENDED BY: The Daily Telegraph, CNN, The Sunday Express, Condé Nast Traveler Magazine, and many other international publications Other things to note Please arrive 5 to 10 mins early.

Hiking & Running around Bern
If you too like to get to know new places while hiking and running around, you will like my sporty sightseeing tour in and around Bern. Your stamina will be rewarded with wonderful views and different perspectives on Bern. The tour starts in the center of Bern and takes us through cobbled streets past the most important sights over the most beautiful bridges to the most beautiful views and along the river Aare into nature, which is within reach from anywhere in Bern. The highest point of our tour will be one of our local mountains (Gurten, Bantiger or Ulmiz) from where we will have a wonderful panoramic view to Bern and the Alps which probably will be difficult to leave again. However, in summer maybe the prospect of jumping into the cool water of the Aare or a refreshing ice cream will help and in winter hot chestnuts? Prepare for a distance of around 15 km and 500 m elevation gain but i take individual needs into account. We will take it easy and stop again and again to enjoy, to chat and to take pictures of the beautiful places in and around Bern. Unfortunately there are no changing rooms or lockers for luggage. Please appear directly in your hiking or running clothes.
E-bike mountain descent from Anzere to Sion
We'll meet at alpine ski resort Anzere (1500 m above sea). Everyone will be provided with a full suspension electric mountain bike and a helmet and after a short lesson and a practice session we'll set off on the mountain and forest paths and occasionally normal roads and after a couple of hours we'll end up in downtown Sion. You do not need to be experienced in mountain biking, if you know how to ride a bicycle you'll be able to do this tour (but might have to walk the bike in a couple of places). The scenery along the ride is breathtaking and parts of the tour run along ancient water canals (Bisses) and vineyards. When we arrive in Sion we can stop for lunch and then load the bikes onto the special rack of the post bus which will take us back up to Anzere, or you may choose to stay in Sion. When back in Anzere you can relax at Anzere Spa and Baths which boasts panoramic views of the Alps (and I may be able to get you a discounted or even half-price admission). Other things to note: The tour consists mostly of rolling on downward sloping paths and roads so there is no need to be very fit or sporty. However, it's not a completely leisurely ride, you will get a moderate workout.
