Overview

It takes a certain kind of person to leave a working aircraft at 15,000 feet. Not a fearless one, the fear is the point, just one who says yes anyway. That's the whole entry requirement.

Here's what yes gets you: the climb over Queenstown's mountains and lakes, the door opening, and then up to 60 seconds of pure freefall at speeds around 200km/h, strapped to a tandem master who has done this more times than you've made coffee. Then the canopy opens, the noise stops, and you float down over scenery that suddenly has your full attention.

Allow around three and a half hours all up for the experience. It's the biggest adrenaline hit in a town famous for them, and the story you'll be telling at the hostel tonight, tomorrow and for the rest of your life.

"The entire experience was incredible. The staff were friendly and professional and it was clear that safety was a priority. It was my first skydive, at 15000 ft. The views were amazing and my skydive master was very friendly and calm."
