Soak up the beauty of all the 144 islands that make up the Bay of Islands as you jump out of an aeroplane at 18,000ft in the air! Experience up to 75 seconds of adrenaline-pumping freefall before the parachute is deployed and you float gently back down to earth. Feels nothing short of a dream.
Conquer your fears and experience the ultimate thrill as you jump out of a plane at 18,000ft in the air. After a safety briefing and gear up, you will board the plane for a 15 minute scenic flight to head up to an altitude of 18,000ft. As you climb higher, revel in the spectacular views of all the 144 islands that make up the Bay of Islands before you take the ultimate leap of faith and exit the plane. With your instructor strapped to your back, you will freefall at speeds of up to 200km/ph for 85 seconds. Once the parachute opens, enjoy the serenity as you float back down to earth taking in the wondrous sites below. You will be directed to the drop zone where your family and friends are waiting. This is an exhilarating experience you'll never forget. After all, you are jumping out of a plane at heights higher than Mount Kilimanjaro!

We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we’ve got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we’ll do the work for you.
Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
