Facing your fears by standing on the edge may be the greatest personal challenge of your life. Getting there requires a 40 minute drive including 4WD through a high country sheep station, followed by a breathtaking ride out to the Bungy Pod in a cable car. The ultimate adrenaline experience. « less

Wow! The only word that can describe how one feels after throwing oneself off 134metre high portable cabin. Note how I say "after" , the "before" feeling was quite the opposite- with trembling knees, sweaty palms and wandering eyes that kept unintentionally looking down at the destination I was going to reach after , literally, taking the plunge. Oh, and... More

Tried the 430ft jump, and it was excellent. No problems despite this being my first time doing bungy. The crew is professional and saftey conscious, doing meticulous checks which put me at ease. I asked a fellow jumper to video me jumping off and now I've something to remember the jump by without having to pay a fortune for the... More

I never did anything like this before, and never even considered it until I got to Queenstown. There's something about that town that brings out a sense of adventure in people. I was absolutely petrified at the thoughts of doing the jump and couldn't think about anything else at all. The drive out to the canyon is pretty nerve wracking,... More

I'd never done a bungy before. It wasn't about the height or the falling, its just something about bouncing about on the end of an elastic band kind of put me off. Nonetheless, it had always been on my bucket list and when I found myself in Queenstown I just had to do it. Everything's set up to build the... More

That was the craziest experience we ever had! 440 feet... wow! Even the trolley ride out to the gondala was scary! It was great having all the jumpers in one room, we all supported and cheered each other. Was amazing, and we all felt safe. Even my 65 year old mother in law jumped!! One tip: Do not order the...

Last week I did my first ever bungy here! I was very lucky to get it FOC through work, however I would not hesitate paying the price for this! You definitely get every cents worth out of it. The bus drive to the canyon is very comfortable and the team at AJ Hackett are all really good. The crew out... More

Having previously done the Bridge Bungy in 2010, I sort of knew what I was letting myself in for... Or so I thought. The bus ride to the jump location was nerve racking enough, and then theres the cable car trip out to the jump platform. Once you're on the platform though its great. The glass bottom lets you see...

I loved the Nevis Bungy. I'm not one for heights, but it's always been on my Bucket List to bungy and the Nevis is a great one to jump. You start with a great scenic drive up to the top, the staff get you harnessed up (and they check the harness a million times before you jump), there's great music... More
