Julio was my pilot and he was great! From booking to flying everything was professional. Walked me through on what to expect, what to do and assured me everything will be enjoyable and beautiful, and he is right! Price is about right for me and my wife. For flight time, it was good enough, but hey who don't want to have more flight time when it was so much fun? That immediately after landing we wanted round 2.

Unbelievable, great first experience paragliding. The amazing scenery on the train going up is only beaten by the views and peacefulness gliding down. Highly recommend . Worth noting you have to park in the town Täsch as cars are not allowed at the meeting point

Glacier Paradise to History Infused Village Stroll
Super interesting experience! Our guide, Remi was an expert Mountaineer (he has actually climbed The Matterhorn!) the experience was two in one - we first went up to the top of the mountain for a close up view of the Matterhorn and went inside a glacier! We then had a great tour of the Zermatt village - learning about its history and current activities. Thanks Remi for a very memorable day!!

Absolutely incredible experience! 🪂🏔️
**An absolutely incredible experience with Matterhorn Paragliding!**My group of four went paragliding with Matterhorn Paragliding yesterday, and we could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, the entire team made us feel so prepared, comfortable, and safe throughout the takeoff and landing.Alan was my instructor, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to experience my first paragliding flight with. He was incredibly knowledgeable, reassuring, and made me feel completely safe while also allowing me to fully enjoy the experience and take in the incredible views of the Matterhorn and Zermatt.This was my first time paragliding, and thanks to Alan and the entire team, it definitely won’t be my last! They gave us the confidence and guidance to experience something completely outside of our comfort zones while knowing we were in such good hands.Thank you, Alan and the entire Matterhorn Paragliding team, for an unforgettable experience! I would recommend you to anyone visiting Zermatt! 🏔️🪂

Best Paragliding company in Zermatt!!
For the most amazing experience, you have to come here and see Michael for a paragliding experience you won’t forget with breathtaking views of the Matterhorn and the village far below. My wife and I booked the package with the photos and videos. What a truly professional team Michael from Zermatt Paragliding has. My pilot was Plamen and what a funny and hilarious guy. He was very professional and safety was a must. I got the opportunity to steer which was also unbelievable. We had the best weather conditions. We could have stayed up for ages. What an addictive experience. Thanks to you all. 5 Stars!!

Highly recommend Adam!
Adam was awesome. He was on time and very professional. I am a very timid skier due to an acl/meniscus injury. My boyfriend and I most likely wouldn’t have seen half the mountain without him. He not only gave me a wonderful lesson but confidence to go down areas I would have otherwise avoided. I even skied to the Cervinia side the following day.

Zermatt Guided Day Hike

Just Perfect!
My wife and I were so fortunate to have had Pete recommended to us our guide! We had the most amazing day as a result.Right from the beginning he was on top of everything; he messaged us a couple days in advance, with a friendly and upbeat message that set the stage for what was to come.Pete is very friendly, warm, kind, gentle and extreme knowledgeable about the area. We were never rushed, had a terrific hike, with amazing views and now have some fantastic pictures and videos of us and our day, thanks to Pete's excellent photography skills (not to be overlooked along with his chocolate expertise!)We finished with a phenomenal lunch where we felt surrounded by family.Our day with Pete was the highlight of our trip! We had many deep conversations and left with the feeling that we had made a new friend!Thanks Pete!!

Zermatt Guided Day Hike

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible Guided Hike in Zermatt – Pete Made It Unforgettable
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible Guided Hike in Zermatt – Pete Made It Unforgettable! We had an absolutely amazing guided hiking experience in Zermatt with Pete as our guide. Our day started by going up to Gornergrat, followed by a beautiful train ride down and hiking around the stunning Riffelalp area. The scenery alone was incredible, but Pete truly made the experience exceptional. Pete was kind, genuine, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond throughout the entire day. He brought homemade snacks, including his own chocolate and other healthy treats, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch. Along the hike, he shared helpful information about Zermatt and gave us great recommendations on things to do during our stay.Another thing that made the experience so memorable was Pete's ability to make us appreciate everything around us. He taught us about the area, pointed out local flowers and nature along the trail, and shared interesting details that made the hike feel much more meaningful than simply walking through beautiful scenery. He also happened to be the best photographer! He knew all of the perfect spots for pictures and took amazing photos for us that captured the views and memories we otherwise would have missed. What really stood out was how much he genuinely cared about making our trip special. He spent extra time with us beyond what was expected and even helped plan our next day by suggesting an itinerary to visit Klein Matterhorn. He took us to lunch where locals eat and encouraged us to try a Swiss dish we never would have ordered ourselves — and it ended up being excellent! Pete truly cared more about giving us an unforgettable experience than simply finishing a tour. We felt like we were spending the day with a friend rather than a guide. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Switzerland, and we cannot recommend Pete highly enough. If you’re considering a guided hike in Zermatt, don’t hesitate — book it!

Great 5 mile hike to see Matterhorn and other sights
Matthew our guide led us up a beautiful trail. He went the right pace and stopped at good times to let us catch our breath. We had several views of the east and north sides of the Matterhorn! At the top of our hike we stopped for coffee at a family owned restaurant that just opened for the summer season. Matthew has lived in Zermatt for 20 years so he was very knowledgeable about the mountains and other sights. The hike was about 5 miles and took about 4 hours. I am 65 years old and my wife is 71. We are in decent but not great shape physically. We enjoyed the hike and Matthew's company very much!
