    Best thing I have ever done and highlight of our NZ trip!! :)
    If you are thinking about skydiving with Nzone, just do it and you will 100% not regret it!! Everyone in the team are so friendly and make you feel at ease. It all felt super safe and they made sure to triple check everything for peace of mind. The views from the plane are amazing and jumping from the plane is the most incredible feeling! Shoutout to my tandem master Will for making the whole experience so much fun and providing plenty of laughs!! We have already recommended it to all our friends and will definitely be back :)

    Do it!!
    This was one of the best experiences of my trip to NZ! If you are hesitating … just go for it, you won’t regret it! I jumped with Conor who was super friendly and relaxed and put me at ease. The scenery is incredible. Well worth getting the video and photo package to capture these incredible memories!

    Amazing views and lovely staff
    My partner and I both had never been skydiving and we can HIGHLY recommend going at Nzone in Queenstown! The team - from sales staff to tandem masters and everyone in between - were all really friendly, encouraging and accommodating. It was a quick & transparent booking process and they had free slots on the same day, so we decided to go as a spontaneous decision. And then the jump: it was breathtaking! Literally! The views were insane, among some of the most beautiful I've ever seen. I jumped with Chris, who was super kind and patient despite me being a nervous wreck. My partner jumped with tandem master Tim and he was fun, easy-going and made the experience awesome as well.

    One hell of a natural high! DO IT!
    DO IT! You won't regret it and you will be smiling for days after. Fab and professional team, stunning views and a total rush! The quiz on the bus stops you freaking out if you are that way inclined as it keeps your mind busy. I guess that's the point. LOVED every second of it. You WILL have a crush on your instructor due to the adrenaline high!

    They're right! Embrace the fear!
    What an amazing group of people! My son and I were first timers, so adrenaline, nerves and anxiety were all present. (Mainly from me) But to the credit of the NZONE team our experience was awesome! Right from the start, everyone put us at ease. The professional manner and relatableness of the team really helped. Right from the booking to the actually jump. Everyone was so accommodating! Special shout out to Jose and Ruben who were our tandem team. If anything I have written resonates with you, then NZONE should be your chosen skydiving team.

    SPECTACULAR, no other words needed
    From start to finish professionalism all the way. Greeted with smiles booked in so efficiently. The way you are addressed, disperses of any nerves. Safety procedures, spoken, written and then you view. It’s crystal clear what to expect and that’s when you become EXCITED. We were taken on a short 20 minute drive out of town, to the skydiving 🪂 facility. We went as a family were all dressed introduced to our tandem Sky diver who was totally AWESOME 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Take off was smooth and I felt like a bird so free so motionless it was stunning. As we edge forward getting ready to jump a last re assuring pat from my instructor. Free fall there is nothing else to compare, gliding through the skies like a hawk was just out of this world. Seeing land from a true Birds Eye view was just BREATHTAKING. I was in Zen mode, true peace, joy and harmonious with sheer happiness. This memory will last a lifetime, well until I jump again. If I can do it YOU can. I highly recommend x infinity.

    Don't miss out!! If not now...?
    Amazing! First skydive, and Nzone queensland was definitely the right place and company. If you have never tandem dived and are in the area, don't miss it. Angus and all the skydivers were great and everyone had a blast. The scenery was incredible

    Good experience
    I did skydiving here in Sept and was coerced into buying the freefall video package instead of freefall ones. I was given the wrong advice by the salesman who processed the sales as he advised me that freefall video package will include paragliding bit of the experience, but it did not. They did not explain the packages clearly during the briefing and so one have to be wary of their manipulative sales techniques. I ended up spending more on cameraman which turned out to be a disappointment. The skydiving experience itself was great as my jumpmaster was brilliant but the cameraman lacks enthusiasm and I think had some failed attempts at some manoeuvre during diving as I gathered from their conversation. The pre-flight pictures and interview were brief although he did managed to capture the initial skydive but disappeared halfway into the fall. He did not seem to pay much attention as well when we were landing so came running from far away. Overall experience was okay but let down by the cameraman and bad sales practice. It could be just my bad luck with the cameraman but I did expect one to be more skilful and professional.

I had the best skydiving experience with NZone. I was partnered with Andre, he made my experience extra special. At first I didn’t want to take a video of my jump because it was a bit pricey 😂. I was really thankful to Andre that he did take the video anyway, after watching the shots he made, I realise how much I wanted to have that first jump of mine documented. It was really worth it. I was the happiest after having to jump off the plane 12000ft, at first I was really nervous, scared and same time excited, sir Andre made the whole experience fun. Instructors like him needs to be recognised.
I highly recommend skydiving with Nzone and get a video of your first jump, and if you’re lucky to be partnered with Andre just like me your experience will surely be the best. But for sure all of the instructors will be alright too 😁

I booked a 15,000 skydive a few days in advance and checked in with the team at Camp Street for a detailed briefing before being brought by bus to the Dropzone. My tandem master introduced himself straight away and my initial reaction was that this guy is lovely. Chris originally from Scotland is a legend. He was so nice and reassuring and has the biggest smile on his face 24/7. He was extremely professional, continuously checking my harness and equipment before leading me out to the plane. On the accent Chris reminded me of the banana shape I needed to make of my body for the freefall. Before I knew it we were out the door and into an amazing freefall/skydive. Once the parachute was opened we did a few 360 spins and Chris pointed out all the landmarks again that he had shown me on the accent and on the freefall. The landing was perfectly smooth and controlled the whole way. This was an amazing experience from start to finish. I can't recommend NZone enough for their professionalism and Chris who is an absolute Gem!

I originally booked for 15000ft,but due to winds could jump 9000ft, but I was happy with that.

What can I say,the views were just woh! spectacular and beautiful all in one. My tandem master Mauro was amazing, made me feel safe and feel comfortable. He was so reassuring as I was nervous as hell. Loved the video and pics. Definitely worth getting I must say.

As I was up in the air, I experienced so much appreciation and gratitude,plus an over whelming feeling of calmness and peace, seeing how beautiful our country NZ truly is and our serene surroundings, unforgettable!

Never in my life time would I ever imagined of ever doing this, as I am such a scardy cat lol and absolutely hate heights.
I thought well, you only live life once, so lets do it!
One thing on my bucket list done! ✔️
Totally glad I did it, no regrets.
Next jump to do 15000 ft, lesss go!!

Nzone! you guys totally rock! 100%

I did the 15000ft skydive experience. The customer service here is incredible!! I had weather issues that forced me to rearrange a few of my plans. They were extremely accommodating and I was lucky to get on a jump the next day. I was with Jamie, Jambo? who was awesome! all of their staff make you feel comfortable and explain everything well! I felt so taken care of! the equipment was great! After my experience I had photo/video issues. They were extremely responsive when I emailed them and they remedied the situation immediately. They had a new flash-drive made and sent up to the main office in Queenstown; they really went above and beyond!

NZone skydive is an awesome company. Their drop site is in the most beautiful location and their team is professional and takes safety seriously which made us feel so much better! The pricing for photos/ videos was extreme and the quality of the pics aren't great, but the overall experience was amazing. Would definitely recommend if you're in Queenstown!

Absolutely amazing experience. Skydiving has been sitting on my bucket list since forever. And I got to do my first jump here with Nzone on the best weather ever. I went on winter and just right after the Polar Blast which left me in awe with absolute gorgeous view of Queenstown snow-capped mountain.

At first I booked for 12000ft jump and got last minute upgrade for much cheaper cost as all skydiver in my flight jumped at higher altitude at 15000 ft. The day I jumped was quite hectic with many people waiting, so my trip got held back about 2 hours which quite frustrating tbh. The activity itself is very weather dependent so not gonna blame them but yeah I kinda lost the excitement when my turn coming. So yeah really need to spare your whole day for skydiving experience cause It could be quite unpredictable i would say. So that's was my first jump at 15000 ft with my tandem master, Steve who is a very professional at his job that keep me calm for the whole experience and help me landing safely.

Also, I booked their ultimate package with handcam and external videographer who jumped with me. The final edits was a bit lacking if I was being really honest not what i expected with the price that I pay. But I did came back the next day and got the whole footage haha so I could edit myself. Definitely there is some improvement that could be done. But yeahh just get your media package cause you will forget those adrenaline moment and you got to keep it fresh in your memories anyway cause it was life changing 🔥😆

My first skydive and it was amazing (I did the 12,000ft). Chris was an absolute legend and made me feel super safe. It takes real skill to make someone feel calm and relaxed just before jumping out of a plane and I can’t thank Chris and the rest of the team enough!

Would highly recommend!

It was a awesome and amazing skydive with NZone in Queenstown. It was a amazing experience with Nzone skydive to see beautiful Queenstown from top and will never forget that beauty. Lake Wakatipu, rivers and mountains are like painted pictures and will never get this view anywhere else. All staff were very friendly and they orgnaised everything very well. Thanks Sam for taking care me from taking off to landing and Thanks Kevin for your excellent support as well. This is really really worth and will do it again.

My partner and I did the 12000 feet skydive with nzone. The experience was unforgettable and my tandem guide Luke deserves particular praise. I was terrified before the jump and as well as doing his job he managed to keep me (relatively) calm during the process.

The one negative was the waiting around - we checked in at the shop at 2.30 and weren’t back in town until gone 7 due to waits / transfers etc. Leave a little more time than they suggest. If you’re on the fence about doing it then definitely do it!

Unfortunately our trip got cancelled due to bad weather. Got a prompt refund. Staff was also great. Considering fickle NZ weather, suggest travellers to keep backup days for such activities. In case of cancellation, there are other activities to explore - head to any information centre and they will guide. We did the Kjet boat ride.

Kia ora Anand! That's an excellent tip - we totally recommend booking on the earliest day possible in your trip, and leaving back up days available in case of bad weather. Skydiving is unfortunately perhaps the most weather dependent activity you can choose, however everyone agrees it's worth the wait! We hope you get to experience it one day! The knowledgeable staff at our Queenstown store can also help to make reservations for almost all other activities in town, and are happy to recommend theirs and other local favorites. Cheers for the review!
