De VIP tandem paragliding was echt een te gekke ervaring! Aardige insteucteurs, duidelijke uitleg en een geweldig mooi uitzicht terwijl je zweeft door de lucht. Ook aan het einde van de vlucht kregen we video/foto materiaal terug waarna je de mooie ervaring weer terug kan zien. Al met al een echte aanrader!
