I recommend bringing your own snacks and water for the trip... The ones available on-site were pretty pricey, and I wish I had saved some cash

If you're going to take pictures, I’d suggest going for the morning flights. The light is amazing, and you get clearer views without the haze that comes later.

Make sure to dress in layers! It can get really chilly up there, even in summer. I learned that the hard way when I was freezing my butt off!

i recommend taking the early morning flights around 8 am; the winds are calmer, and the views of the alps at sunrise are breathtaking!

Bring a small backpack with water and a snack. After the flight, you’ll get pretty hungry, and there aren’t many shops around right after landing.

I suggest booking your paragliding session a day in advance to avoid the last-minute rush. It really helped me snag a spot during the busy season!

Don’t forget to bring your own GoPro or ask about photo packages if you want to capture the moments! I didn’t think to do this and missed some great shots in the air.

I suggest booking your tandem flight in advance. Last minute spots fill up fast, especially during weekends. I almost missed out because I didn't plan ahead!

Make sure to dress in layers! It was sunny at the base but pretty chilly up in the air. I ended up wearing an extra jacket that I was glad I brought along.

Bring a good camera or a GoPro! You’ll want to capture the view from the jump, but my phone was a bit shaky. They also offer great photo packages, so check that out!

i suggest booking your jump in advance, especially during peak seasons. i thought i could get a last-minute spot, but it was super busy and i ended up waiting longer than expected.

I recommend getting there around 9 AM to avoid the crowd. The views are breathtaking that time of day, plus you get to enjoy a little peace before the busy folks arrive

I highly recommend booking your tandem flight in advance especially during peak season. It saves you the hassle and gives you more time to enjoy the stunning views and experience other activities in Courchevel.
