DAVOS: Paragliding For 2 Passengers – Together In The Air! (Video&Photos Incl.)

If you like the idea of seeing the Swiss Alps from above, Davos tandem paragliding is one of the most direct ways to get there. You are up in the air for a short, focused window, with a pilot running the show, while you and your partner get those sweeping mountain views without any training setup.

I love how the flight starts with an in-depth briefing about take-off and landing right with your pilot. I also love that the experience includes video and photos, so you get real memories of both of you soaring, not just a few blurry phone shots.

One thing to plan around: this paragliding runs only in good weather. If conditions are off, your flight may be rescheduled or you could get a full refund, so it is smart to keep your day flexible.

Key things to know before you fly in Davos

• Two passengers in the air together on tandem rides, so you share the moment
• Take-off and landing briefing with your pilot so you know what to expect
• Davos alpine views from overhead, with time to chat while you fly
• Pilots matter, and Air-Davos Paragliding gets praised for calm, friendly instruction from pilots like Martin, Fabio, Damir, and Jan
• Video and photos are included, plus people report getting an edited video the same evening
• Weather-dependent flight means you should plan for schedule changes

Davos tandem paragliding in plain English: what you’re really buying

Air-Davos Paragliding is a tandem setup in the Davos area, built for couples and friends who want the Alpine experience without any solo learning curve. The core value is simple: you get into the air with a professional pilot, you enjoy the view, and you come back with a full set of photo and video keepsakes.

The title says it clearly, you’re doing paragliding for two passengers, together in the air. In real life, that translates to two people flying on tandem rides with pilots, and several flights have been described as side by side, so both people can enjoy the experience at the same time. That matters more than you might think. A lot of outdoor activities are “watch while your partner goes.” Here, you share the main event.

This is also a private activity. Only your group participates, which is great if you want a calmer pace and less waiting around with a big crowd. You still meet at the appointed spot, but once you’re with your pilot, the focus is on you.

How the 2-hour experience flows (and what happens during that time)

The experience is listed at about 2 hours. That is not just the airborne part. In practice, you should expect the time to include your briefing and the full rhythm of getting ready, flying, and coming down.

Here is the arc you can expect:

Stop: Air-Davos Paragliding

You start at Brämabüelstrasse 11, 7270 Davos. From there, you’ll meet your pilot and get the important conversation first. The briefing covers take-off and landing, which is exactly where most first-timers feel nervous. The pilots are described as calm and friendly, and the communication is praised as clear and simple.

Once you’re in the air, the experience shifts gears. You’ll focus on the views and your pilot will help you enjoy the flight. Several people talk about circling above Davos and surrounding valleys with a mix of peaceful serenity and exhilaration. You can also chat while you fly, which turns it from a silent thrill into an actual shared adventure.

After the flight, you come back to the meeting point area. The duration stays tight and practical, which is helpful if you’re trying to fit this into a day of other Davos sightseeing.

A small reality check on “together”

Because this is tandem, you each fly with a pilot. That is the main reason this feels like an activity designed for two passengers, not one solo flight plus a spectator. If being physically side by side is important to you, it is worth mentioning it when you book, but based on how flights have been described, it is commonly arranged that way.

The pilots you want: calm, clear, and good at first-time nerves

The most consistent praise in the feedback is not about the view alone. It is about the pilot approach. People describe instructors like Martin, Fabio, Damir, and Jan as professional, friendly, and very calm in the moment.

Why that matters: paragliding has motion, wind, and the feeling of being off the ground. Even if you intellectually know you’re strapped in securely, first-time nerves are real. A good briefing helps you connect the dots, so your body does not feel like it has to guess what happens next.

The pilots also earn points for engagement. People report time to talk during the flight, not just a one-way lecture. That makes the flight feel more like a guided experience and less like a ride you survive.

If you are nervous, look for the same things the best pilots do well:

• Clear directions
• Calm pace
• Reassurance without overdoing it
• A briefing that explains take-off and landing in a way you can picture

Based on the pattern of feedback, Air-Davos Paragliding pilots seem to hit those marks.

Photos and video included, and why that changes the value

Here is a practical reason to pay attention to what’s included. Paragliding is one of those experiences where your memory fades fast, because you’re busy feeling the thrill. Video and photos keep the experience tangible.

This tour includes photos and video. People specifically mention receiving images and an edited video, even the same evening in some cases. That is a big deal if you want to post something or just relive the flight without digging through your own shaky footage.

So yes, you will take home memories. But more importantly, you get them in the format most people wish they had afterward, both of you visible, both of you in the moment, not just one person captured by a partner holding a phone at arm’s length.

Price and value: is $503.51 per person fair for Davos?

At $503.51 per person, this is not a budget activity. But it can be good value if you focus on what you’re actually getting.

You’re paying for:

• A tandem paragliding ride
• A pilot
• Use of paragliding equipment
• And importantly, video and photos are included

The hidden-value part is the photo and video package. With other operators, you often end up paying extra for the same kind of keepsakes after the flight. Here, the experience is set up so you take home content as part of the deal.

Also, it is private for your group, which can add value if you compare it to shared-group pricing where you wait longer or feel less “handled.”

What can affect value for you personally is planning. The cable car ticket is not included, and transportation to and from the attraction is also not included. If you already have a way to get to the meeting area, costs stay straightforward. If you need extra lift and transfers, budget for that.

So I would summarize it like this: the price feels justified if you want the whole package, especially the included video and photos, and you are comfortable with a weather-dependent schedule.

Meeting point and logistics: simple, but not automatic

You meet at Brämabüelstrasse 11, 7270 Davos, and the activity ends back at that same meeting point.

Two items to keep in mind:

• Cable car ticket is not included
• Transportation to/from attractions is not included

That means you should plan how you will reach the meeting area on your own schedule. If you’re using the cable car system for access in Davos, you will want to arrange that separately.

Also note the format: you’ll have a mobile ticket, and you should receive confirmation when you book. You do not need to worry about collecting a paper ticket on-site.

Fit, age, and weight: the rules that keep it safe

This paragliding is for people who meet the activity requirements. The listing asks for moderate physical fitness and sets a passenger weight range of 20 to 125 kg.

It also says it is not recommended for children aged 8 and under. If you are traveling with kids, this is one of those tours where the age line is not just a formality. Make sure the child fits the guidance before you plan the day around it.

If you’re unsure because of fitness or medical questions, the safest move is to ask the provider directly before you commit.

Cancellation and weather: what to expect if conditions change

This activity requires good weather. If it gets canceled due to poor conditions, you will be offered a different date or a full refund.

There is also free cancellation up to 24 hours in advance, with refunds only guaranteed if you cancel at least 24 hours before the experience start time. Changes inside that window are not accepted.

Practical tip: when you book, keep your day flexible. If you schedule something tight right after, you could feel annoyed if the flight shifts. With weather-based outdoor activities, the small planning effort can save your whole day.

Who should book Air-Davos Paragliding, and who might skip it

This is a strong match if:

• You and your partner want to share a main thrill moment together
• You want pilot guidance without prior training
• You care about leaving with real visual proof, because photos and video are included
• You like well-organized instruction, and you want calm pilots like Martin, Fabio, Damir, or Jan

You might think twice if:

• You cannot shift your schedule and you hate weather uncertainty
• You do not meet the listed weight range or you are not comfortable with the moderate physical fitness requirement
• You are traveling with a child who is 8 or under, since the tour advises against it

If you are a first-time flyer and also easily anxious, the reviews suggest this operator handles that well with calm communication and a briefing that prepares you for take-off and landing.

Should you book this Davos paragliding flight for two?

Yes, if you want a top-to-bottom experience built for two people, with pilots who focus on clarity and safety, plus included video and photos so the memory lasts beyond the moment.

Book it if you can plan around weather and you are able to get to the Brämabüelstrasse 11 meeting point. Skip it if you need a guaranteed fixed schedule, or if the listed fitness and age guidance does not work for your group.

If your goal is a Swiss Alps thrill that feels guided, shared, and worth the money because you keep the visuals, Air-Davos Paragliding is one of the cleanest ways to do it in Davos.
