Chamonix Tandem Paragliding Flight

The flight costs from €171 per person, and you should add about €17 for the lift ticket to the take-off site unless you already hold one. That puts the realistic minimum at about €188 per person. Longer flights of up to 45 minutes may cost more, and their prices show in the live calendar once dates open. Our snapshot captured the from-price on 30 Sep 2026, so the booking page always has the final figure. Check your date and flight length in the live calendar.

Not with this operator: it flies all year, even in winter, except from late September to mid December or when the cable car is closed. No bookable date showed when we checked for 15 Oct 2026. If your trip falls in that window, another Chamonix flight had open dates: the paragliding tour facing Mont Blanc showed 32 days between 30 Sep and 1 Nov 2026 when we checked on 29 Sep 2026. Otherwise, plan around the gap with the best time for a Mont Blanc tour.

Flight time is 15 to 45 minutes, depending on which flight you select, and the standard description puts it at about 20 minutes. Count on more time on the ground: the listing's itinerary includes a 10-minute cable car ride, a 5-minute walk and a 20-minute safety briefing at Le Brévent. The full activity is listed at 1 to 2 hours. One recent reviewer advises going for the longest time available. Compare flight lengths in the live calendar.

The flight is not suitable for children under 5, pregnant women, people over 100 kg (220 lbs) or people over 80 years. You also need closed-toe shoes; sandals, flip-flops and bare feet are not allowed. If someone in your group is over 100 kg or over 80, the cable car is the gentler way to the same views, and the cable car and train day includes the Aiguille du Midi at 3,842 m.

If the weather is not good for a safe flight, you get a refund, or a new slot if you are able to reschedule. Wind is the usual limit: the operator advises against flying after 3 pm because the wind can be too strong. Book a morning slot in June, July and August, or noon in other months, and keep a spare day in Chamonix if the flight matters to you. Reserve with a buffer in the live calendar.

No, the lift ticket to the take-off site is not included and costs about €17 if you don't already have one. The price covers the professional instructor, the paragliding and safety equipment, and insurance. If you already bought a lift pass for the day, you may not need a separate ticket. For a flight where all extras are clear before you pay, compare prices in the Mont Blanc air tours comparison.

No experience is listed as required, because you fly in tandem with a professional pilot who handles take-off, the flight and the landing. Before take-off you get your equipment and a pre-flight briefing on what to do. Reviewers mention pilots who explained everything and made them feel completely safe. What you do need is warm clothing and closed-toe shoes such as hiking or sports shoes. Choose your flight in the live calendar.

It has by far the most reviews: 4.92 from 356, against 46 or fewer for the other Chamonix flights on GetYourGuide. Prices are close, from €139 to €199 per person, so the choice usually comes down to open dates. In late autumn, the paragliding tour facing Mont Blanc had dates when this one had none. In winter, the Planpraz paragliding flight was open from 19 Dec 2026. See every option in the Mont Blanc air tours comparison.
