Skydive Tandem Basic
The Basic Tandem Parachute Jump is the most affordable way to experience freefall firsthand.
In terms of freefall duration and the overall experience, the Basic Jump is equivalent to the Panorama Jump. However, due to limited operating hours and the geographical location, we are able to offer a significantly lower price for the tandem jump.

Good morning,
The skydive was a great experience for my 14-year-old daughter. She wanted to jump again right away
For that, I’m giving it the full 5 stars!
Since it didn’t quite earn 5 stars in the end, the issue was that I ordered a video jump and
believed the price would be, as described, Fr. 120.--. But I had to pay 150 euros, with the explanation that
“the Strait of Hormuz would cover this difference”??? I didn’t ask any further questions and paid the additional 30.--.
I’m not aware of—nor do I understand—what the Strait of Hormuz has to do with the skydive .
Thank you, and maybe we’ll come back for another jump with my daughter
Best regards, Marcel and Michelle Casanova

It was the most amazing experience and one of the best feelings I’ve ever had! Jumping out of the plane was simply indescribable and worth every moment!!!
One minor criticism is the high additional costs based on weight. Depending on your weight category, there’s an extra 50 € or even 100 CHF on top of the base price. That can quickly add up to a total of 150 € in surcharges, which I personally think is quite a lot. Of course, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you don’t do every day, and for me, it was definitely worth the money. Still, I find the additional costs quite high.

A very warm welcome. Simon and Oil were great.

A must for every adrenaline junkie. I don't know of anything else like it, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. The people at the airfield are really nice, and you immediately feel like you're part of the team.

It was like nothing else—it's addictive from the very first jump. I miss it up there. Absolutely awesome.
