Queenstown, so named in honour of Queen Victoria, is well-established as the "jewel in NZ's tourism crown", with more adventure options per square metre than any other similarly-sized town in the world!
And it was Bungy that got the whole thing started back in 1988 and setting Queenstown up as the adventure-tourism capital of the world.
AJ Hackett Bungy offers six very different Bungy and Swing experiences in Queenstown, ranging from the ultimate personal challenge to a more low-key discovery of Bungy from the sidelines. Can't decide? ask the Jump Shrink.

The Nevis Arc

The Ledge Bungy As the only urban Bungy in Queenstown, it was clearly our duty to make it as crazy as possible. The Ledge Bungy is like no other in that it comes equipped with a 'runway' to launch you out 400 metres over Queenstown.
And now for something completely different... Remember the swing you had in your back yard? Well the Ledge Sky Swing takes that to a whole new level. In fact a level 400 metres over Queenstown.
