AJ Hackett Kawarau Bungy Centre — Attraction in South Island

An awesome awesome experience if you are looking for some thrill and Adreline.

I did the Kawarau Bridge Bungy which is commercially the oldest in the world, the Nevis Bay Bungy which is the highest in New Zealand (134 meters) and my partner and I both did the Zip ride at Kawarau Bridge.

The entire team of AJ Hackett is simply awesome, they ensure that your check in process is absolutely smooth and you can just concentrate on your thrills. Also if your nervous or scared of heights they do not push you into doing it but rather give you a positive talk about why you should do it, which is very heartwarming when I saw one of the team members having a chat with a person who was scared of doing it.

A special shout out to Ellie, Rosie, Tim & Charlie and many others who I can't remember the name of (apologies for that).

Kawarau Bridge Bungy - this is one of the most scenic bungys I have done, with the Kawarau river flowing below you. If you fall between the right weight category you can even get dunked into the river water below, unfortunately I couldn't because I was light weight, you just need to check with your Bungy jump masters. After you do the first jump and are willing to do more you can even do other stunts like pendulum, Spartan (I did the Spartan which is where you stand backwards and they kick you lightly on the chest) and you fall backwards.

Nevis Bungy (134 meters) - this one was superb as well, where it's the height that's thrilling and it's for the adventure junkies.

Kawarau Zip Ride - Pretty fun, not scary at all, you go down the zip line and then come back again on the zip line which is super fun and you can do different stunts like forward, backwards, upside down, etc.

Once again thank you and kudos to the entire team at AJ Hackett, from the time I did the booking abut 6 months back, they were extremely nice to reciprocate to all my emails and all my questions.

Definately recommend to everyone and would definately do again and maybe try the Catapult and the swing next time. ♥️

Thank you...

This is the best place for bungy jumping. A place with scenic natural beauty. Greenish blue water of kuwarau river flowing through the rocky cliffs at both sides. Vivid colors of the autumn on the trees everywhere. Even it's your first time doing bungy jumping and there are butterflies in your stomach, you just indulge in the beauty of this place that you forget all just throw yourself from the bridge as if you are taking a leap of faith in the lap of mother nature. That's what happened when my 15 year son and 12 year daughter did it for the first time. As I was unhappy my wife didn't allow me but encouraged my children to do it. They thanked me for that afterwards as it was an experience of lifetime. The staff at A J Hackett bungy center is very encouraging and helpful. They weigh you first to decide what bungy cord to use for each of you. They get you fill the indemnity form from you , in my case from me as my children were minors. They tell you the do's and don'ts. On the bridge the instructors there fastens the bungy securely from your ankles to knees. And again instructs you how to jump. As to just let yourself off the platform easily, no pushing , no jump with force. There are lifeboats in the water underneath with lifeguards not just to pick you after the bungy but for your safety just in case of accident. We Double checked all this safety measures and then only allowed our children to do the bungy. They also have high definition cameras and give you the stunning photos and videos of your jump. And they also give you certificate saying " I did it " after you bungy jump. My children were very excited to get their certificates.Don't miss this place in queenstown. A great...

It was the first bungee jump of my life. I wanted to do it in the very place where it was born and created, on the historic site.

Everything was organized to make me feel good and to give me the most exciting, fabulous and memorable experience of my life. Everything was perfect, easy, safe and secure: the warm welcome and the weigh-in in the AJ.Hackett building in downtown Queenstown, the efficient organization with the shuttles, the smiling welcome upon arriving at the site when you get off the shuttle, the super interesting decreasing prices when you do several jumps, the super easy transit between the Kawarau's bridge site and the Nevis site higher up, the good quality T-shirt as a gift, the quality photos and videos included in the price, the numerous (reassuring) checks by the professionals...

And the icing on the cake: all the professionals on site are attentive, caring and kind. I felt that they truly wanted my experience to be as unforgettable and fantastic as possible. And they did everything in their power to ensure that it was. As a result, I had complete trust in them. Even though I was alone in this experience, I felt seen, considered, accompanied, guided, listened to, supported, safe, and supported from the moment I entered the AJ.Hackett building to my return. I am so happy to have crossed the globe to come and experience this at AJ.Hackett.

Thank you so much to all the staff who took such great care of me. As proof, I even received a free USB key with my photos and videos because I could not download them for a long time.

My experience was magical thanks to the expertise and immense sympathy of each professional...
