We booked, for a birthday, a flight for 4 people, all adults, deluxe, lasting 30 minutes with videos and photos. Flights organized with great professionalism, responsibility and safety for each participant. They are very attentive to the weather and wind forecasts and decide whether the flight can be carried out, here you can already sense the seriousness. Stefano and his team welcome you as soon as you leave with the cable car with great kindness and you already feel at ease. They explain to you in great detail the details of the launch, flight and landing. Spectacular flight with a thousand emotions. Congratulations to the entire Fly Ticino team and a highly recommended experience for everyone.

Unforgettable experience with FlyTicino – A dream come true!
I had the pleasure of experiencing a tandem flight with FlyTicino, and all I can say is: It was absolutely fantastic! From the first contact I felt in good hands. Communication was smooth, friendly and very informative. All my questions were answered patiently and in detail.
On the day of the flight, of course, I was a little nervous, but the entire FlyTicino team immediately gave me a sense of security and confidence. The meeting place was easy to find, and the reception was warm. You immediately noticed that there are professionals at work here who like to share their passion for flying.
My pilot was incredibly experienced and professional. Before the start he explained everything exactly what to expect and gave me important safety advice. Already at the start I felt completely safe and could enjoy the breathtaking view.
The flight itself was just magical. Gliding over the beautiful landscape of Ticino was an indescribable feeling. The peace in the air, the clear view of the mountains, lakes and valleys – it was like a dream. My pilot repeatedly pointed out interesting points during the flight and took my wishes into account whether I wanted to experience a quiet flight or some exciting maneuvers.
The landing was smooth and perfectly organized. Even after that the team took time for a nice conversation and some photos were taken, which remain a wonderful memory to me.
All in all, my tandem flight with FlyTicino was one of the best experiences of my life. The team is outstanding, the service first class and the experience incomparable. I highly recommend FlyTicino to anyone who wants to experience a safe, professional and unforgettable tandem flight. Thank you, FlyTicino, for this unforgettable adventure!

Paragliding is really in my bucket list and I had planned to do that in Interlaken, but when I went to Lugano without any plans, and saw the ad for FlyTicino, I immediately inquired. Stefano, owner/pilot made booking a breeze. Eventhough the regular flying season has ended, he made a special flight for me. It was awesome! Paragliding with FlyTicino is now one of the highlights of my whole month 45th birthday celebration. Thank you, Stefano! Hope to see you next spring.

Beautiful flight, perfect day and team ready and qualified!
Stefano was my pilot, he provided me with all the necessary information for the start and finish.
The flight was very nice, the drafts make it clear that you have to be qualified to handle the glider.
Very nice before the landing where it began to whirl and add that extra bit of adrenaline to the experience that is already very beautiful!
Thank you so much FlyTicino and thanks to Stefano for this experience!

This is the second time I have purchased a tandem flight for my husband as a birthday gift with FlyTicino. On both occasions, the whole experience has been beautiful. It’s an easy and helpful booking system, well explained. Stefano is efficient, and replied very quickly to any queries. He is professional, knowledgeable and conscientious - but also really kind and friendly. The whole package is great. The final photos and videos are super, with so much choice; and my husband was overwhelmed by the amazing scenery and the fantastic views. I have no doubt that he will go again!

I had my first paragliding flight (ever) with Stefano from flyticino today and wow, was it amazing! My husband, who gave this to me as a Christmas present, flew with Frederico at the same time and I’m so happy we could experience this together. The whole organization from the first contact to the final goodbye was smooth and competent and during the flight there was not a second where I felt nervous or scared. I can wholeheartedly recommend the guys from flyticino - thanks again for this memorable ticino experience!

What a fantastic experience! We were running behind due to our train being delayed and they worked hard to accommodate us still! The whole experience once we were there was smooth with very clear instructions to help us all feel safe to fly as all four of us were first time fliers. We cannot recommend this company enough!!! :)

Fabulous experience. Booking was easy, Stephano responded promptly and sent lots of info. Francesco took me as his passenger, so experienced and reassuring, he immediately calmed nerves. The flight was just wonderful, I can’t wait to come back.

It depends on how long a flight you would like. Short flight is about 15 minutes vs longer flight. Costs are very reasonable considering the expertise of the company. Well worth it!

My siblings and I are taking a day trip to Lake Lugano from Milan via train. Is paragliding possible to do? if so how would we get to the take off point and back to Lake Lugano?
Written September 23, 2018
Dear Mary,
thank you very much for your question.
One of our favorite spots for paragliding in Ticino is Mt. Tamaro, which is very close to Lugano.
You can easily get there by train. There is a direct train from Lugano every 30 min (price is aprox. CHF 6 per person). Travel time from Lugano is only 16 min and you have to get off at the station named "Rivera-Bironico" (from there you can reach the gondola of Mt. Tamaro by walking 5 minutes).
Please, make sure to book your paragliding tandem flights in advance by texting us on WhatsApp (+41 79 796 76 18) since we are often full booked.
Thank you! :-)

Hi Piyush! Thank you for contacting us :-)
Yes, it is definetely better to book 4 to 7 days in advance by texting us on WhatsApp (Tel. +41 79 796 76 18). Especially now in the summer since we have many fully booked days. Best regards! Stefano

Please advise the nearest city and transportation to the paragliding location. Also, how is the weather for this adventure in late October?
Written June 24, 2018
Hi Brian! In Ticino we fly from 7 different mountains, close to Bellinzona, Lugano and Locarno. The easiest mountain to reach is Monte Tamaro because there is a train station just in front of it. We fly 365 days a year. October and November are both very nice months to fly. Make sure to check with us in advance our availability :-)

what's the minimum age to do paragliding ?
we will be traveling with children from age 6 to 10.
how far is the place from Lugano ?
do we need to book it in advance ?
Written May 1, 2018
Hi Raghavmal, thank you for your questions.
In Switzerland there is no minimum age to do paragliding. Children are welcome.
At FlyTicino we regularly fly with children of all ages. They must weight at least 20 kg.
All our paragliding spots can be reached within 20 minutes by car or train from Lugano.
It is much better to book in advance. Feel free to send me a WhatsApp message at +41 79 796 76 18 to plan your paragliding adventure with us.
I look forward to hear from you!

Hi Vignesh! Thank you for your questions! ☺ we are glad that you would like to try paragliding. Personally we are flying in Ticino. It is definitely one of the most beautiful places to do paragliding in Switzerland. The view is amazing! You can take a direct train from Zürich to Bellinzona or Lugano. You only need 2 hours to reach Ticino. Other beautiful places are Interlaken and Montreaux. You cannot fly in Zurich. Please, feel free to text me on WhatsApp for more information: +41 79 796 76 18. We are still free on the 2nd of may! Best regards, Stefano Genazzini
