Oh what a feeling! Glorious flight with Mountaingliders over the Lago and soaring above the Cimetta. It was our first tandem flight and we felt safe and well-guided by Thio and Michael. Thank you for the fantastic experience!United States
Fantastic experience, pretty scary at first but Michael was great and after a while it was just great. This was my first tandem-jump, probably won't be my last!Norway
DO IT! If you are in Ascona/Locarno and looking for a stunning, peaceful way to experience the view, go with Thio and his experienced team. My husband and I are open to new adventures, but not thrill seekers by any means. This experience would be good for children and adults alike. This is the closest experience to flying like a bird you will receive! And such a view with a great team that makes you feel comfortable and at ease.Iran
