My Round the World Adventure

Bungy Jumping the Nevis

Posted: 09 Feb 2010 04:35 AM PST

New Zealand is known for its adventure activities. People come from around the world to white water raft, hike, glacier trek, sky dive, and bungy jump. And one of the best places to do a bungy is in Queenstown, New Zealand. Queenstown is home to a lot of bungy operators, the most famous of which is AJ Hackett Bungy. AJ Hackett is the creator of bungy jumping and his company runs the biggest bungy in the region- the 134 meter high Nevis Bungy Jump. Take a look:

If you aren’t looking to jump, you can go as an observer for $50 NZD. If $250 NZD is too expensive for you or the Nevis is too high for you, there are 2 smaller bungy jumps available. One of which also dunks you into a river.

(Disclaimer: Dan from Travel Generation got the $50 observer fee waived for me. )
