The experience itself is cool, unfortunately the friendliness of the instructor not at all what clearly spoiled the moment.

Mixed opinion, the flight went well. The instructor seems to have very good experience and technical skills. However, he's not very friendly. We took my car up to the top, and as the wind was about to pick up he was in a hurry, so he didn't even give me time to get my gear, gloves, hat, etc. I hadn't finished getting my things when he'd already left for the start. Before the flight, he didn't take the time to ask how I was feeling or explain what was going to happen before getting ready. When I got downstairs, I had to go back up to St Hilaire to get my car, and as I was leaving the parking lot without asking my opinion, he bumped into his friends and asked them if they could take me up instead of him. These people's car was very small, fortunately they refused because there was no room. (I was also nauseous after the flight, and it would have been an ordeal for me to be in a mini-car in the back). I felt that he was disgusted to have to go back up, even though it's part of his job. I thought it was a bit too much, but I didn't say anything. I couldn't wait to get home.

It's a pity that the weather didn't allow any "sensations".

The flight was fine, but I didn't like the paid transport, 10€ for 5kms, a bit too much, especially without being warned, they tell you after the flight, Cdt

The flight was great, as was the instructor. Perhaps a more precise communication on the part of the provider on the details of the activity transmitted by email.

Two of us came up last Sunday for a paragliding flight, and we had an incredible experience. The staff were very friendly, caring and reassuring from start to finish. Everything went perfectly, in a warm and professional atmosphere. We have very fond memories of it. I highly recommend this activity to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience!
