Kawarau Bridge Bungy

Weight limit: 35kg-235kg, the total weight difference for tandem jumps should not exceed 30kg

The first bungee company mentioned above is located at Kawarau Bridge. For bungee enthusiasts, this is actually a pilgrimage site.
43 meters is not very high, but for first-time bungee jumpers, this height is quite sufficient. With turbulent river water and steep rocks below, standing on the edge can still be quite nerve-wracking. Kawarau Bridge also offers tandem jumps, which is another great opportunity for couples to show off their love. Unfortunately, single people might feel a bit lonely and scared, hugging themselves tightly when their legs go weak.

If you find the Kawarau Bridge not thrilling enough, then the Nevis Bungy in Queenstown, which is more than 100 meters higher than the Kawarau Bridge, is definitely for you. Moreover, 134 meters is just the length of the bungy cord, the actual height is much greater.
The design of the Nevis Bungy platform is also quite insane, completely suspended above the canyon, swaying with the wind...
People going for the bungy jump will sit in a floating car, which will slowly transport them to the middle of the platform. No joke, just the journey to the platform can be terrifying.
The entire bungy jump doesn't last long, about 30 seconds. The first 8 seconds are free fall, the feeling of weightlessness is indescribable, then you are constantly pulled by the cord, rebounding, and falling again... These 30 seconds feel longer than 30 years...
Queenstown Ledge Bungy
Price: 96-124 USD (excluding photography)
Height: 47 meters
Weight limit: 35kg-107kg
Age limit: Not less than 10 years old, children under 15 need a guardian to sign a related disclaimer
The Ledge Bungy is not very high, but it wins with its variety. Because their bungy equipment is a special full-body harness, it fully supports any position you want, you can even run a bit before jumping. They are truly daring and skilled, not only can you spin and jump with your eyes closed, but you can also bungy at night. Jumping into the pitch-black darkness doubles the thrill, and you can overlook the beauty of Queenstown's lights at dusk. This experience is truly unforgettable.
Auckland Sky Tower Bungee Jump
Price: 131-138 USD (excluding photography)
Height: 192 meters
Weight limit: No more than 122kg
Age limit: No younger than 10 years old, no maximum age limit
Located in Auckland's CBD, the Sky Tower is a major landmark of Auckland, standing at 328 meters tall. Its slender and tall figure is simply a marvel of the Southern Hemisphere.
We will be jumping from a height of 192 meters. Taking a high-speed elevator to the bungee jumping floor, you will find towering buildings and bustling traffic beneath your feet, with the entire splendor of Auckland at your feet.
After securing the harness, take a leap, and experience a free fall at a speed of 85km/h. Before you can even scream, you will have reached the ground. It's truly an experience of speed and excitement.
Besides bungee jumping, the Sky Tower's SkyWalk is also quite thrilling.
At a height of 192 meters, you will walk around the tower on a platform only 1.2 meters wide, without handrails, only secured by two ropes. It's so nerve-wracking that your legs might cramp up.
