Start your tour with pickup at your accommodation and make your way to the train station in Basel.

Did a tandem flight with my wife today, speechless landscape above the lake and beautiful mountains all around! We was so afraid, didn’t know exactly what to expect but Marius and his colleague helped us to get over the emotions. Everything was nice and smooth, definitely we’ll chose them again when we’ll come back to repeat the experience!

Highly recommend this! Everything went really smoothly from the very start and the experience was incredible. Toni was very helpful and wonderful!
