A bungy jump is the essential Queenstown adventure experience. Not only is Queenstown ground-zero for commercial bungy jumping, it’s home to the best bungy jumps and swings in New Zealand and around the world.

After making international headlines by bungy jumping from the Eiffel Tower in 1987, AJ Hackett and business partner Henry van Asch launched the world’s first bungy business here in Queenstown on the historic Kawarau Bridge.

Since then, Queenstown has become home to some of the world’s most thrilling bungy jumps, swings, and ziplines.
