Tandem Paragliding Experience from Interlaken - Meeting in Interlaken and driving to Beatenberg

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,655 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $252Our pick

Soar above Interlaken on a tandem paraglide from Beatenberg, with Lake Thun, the Jungfrau peaks, and a gentle landing in town.

“This was amazing, must do! They have you meet at the office, then ferry you up the foothills in a van. The pilots match with you and do all the prep. After harnessing, you jog in tandem with your pilot to achieve lift. 15-20 minutes of sailing then touchdown. Amazing views. My wife and I tell everyone that it's been a highlight!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 566 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $166

Paddle turquoise Lake Brienz from Bönigen on a small-group kayak tour with expert coaching, castle views, photos, and optional evening calm.

“We had the most amazing time on our kayaking trip - it was absolutely gorgeous weather and the water almost didn't seem real. We were so glad we did it and well worth the price! There were six people in our group total, and after a short safety run through we hit the water for 2-3 hours, including a stop where we got out and jumped in the water. The guide also brought a go pro camera and took lots of photos so we didn't have to feel bad about leaving our phones in the lockers. Highly reccommend!”

Bungy Jump Stockhorn review: cable-car free fall, mountain views, safety details, price, weather risks, and practical booking advice from Interlaken.

“Unfortunately, one of the worst experience i had ever seen I regret to share that my first experience with your company has been disappointing. My bungee jump was canceled when I was already in the cable car. While I fully understand that safety is your top priority and the cancellation was beyond your control, I believe that, given the nature of your business, daily weather forecasts should be closely monitored to prevent such issues. I had planned to do the jump on August 17th, just before my flight back. However, I was informed yesterday that you would be closed on August 18th. As a result, I rearranged all my plans,…”

It was definitely a bit scary at times but the adrenaline is what makes it fun! Would recommend if you're considering going!”
