This is something I had always wanted to do. Taupo was chosen because of the view and that you jumped over water. It was a beautiful view and very safe! I'd do it again. My son did do it twice. Some of the staff was friendly, some were not. The front desk clerk did go out of her way to... More

Everyone was friendly and of course the bungy was great! :) A very nice view there of the beautiful water underneath. Have jumped before and this is one of my better views. This was the first time I've even been lowered to a boat, was a bit different but overall was good. Definitly recommend. More

I did a bungee swing and it was great fun! Wish it lasted longer, but for $99 (do it before noon and you will get a free DVD) its great! Very professional and fun staff too. More

The views of the Waikato river are superb and I watched in awe as 2 youngsters jumped. If only I was 40 years younger. What surprised me was the price, of how expensive it was, they would get more customers if it was cheaper, so the guy who was meant to be taking the photos wouldnt be half a sleep... More

Hi Nurse51Brigg, Thank you for posting your review for Taupo Bungy & Taupo Cliffhanger. I am glad to hear you enjoyed watching some bungy jumpers take the plunge at our beautiful site. Regarding our price of $149pp, this is in fact the second cheapest bungy jump in New Zealand, and we think the best value - based on the stunningly... More

The price of this attraction was a bit more expensive than some of the New Zealand bungys - but they do have location and view on their side. The location is picturesque. I did a single bungy, and I felt very safe with the harness and leg straps, and multiple connection points. The team were pretty friendly and the video... More

We have been to Taupo Bungy last month and I must admit that I was a bit shaky right before the leap. But the views, the water touch and the free fall - totally loved it and must admit I wanna do it all over again and probably even from greater heights! 1 item crossed off bucket list! Here is...

They are the Best jump on the North island. the River view was is beautiful. the staff are very professional, safe and are happy to answer all your questions. Apparently they retire the bungy cord after so many jumps. Not on whether it looks worn. They have a goodclip checking routine and 2 people doing it, separately. ( @ people... More

Hi mmac54, Thank you so much for your excellent review. I am glad your daughter enjoyed her bungy jump with us. Just to put any concerns about the bungy cord at bay, it is true we retire each cord after it has done 500 jumps. However, the cords are checked continuously every day - from each morning they are put... More

My 13 year old son went on it. Good and professional crew. He had a good time although $150 for a pop, not counting the pricey pictures and videos is not for an everyday affair. More

If you're in Taupo its a must do! I am fortunate enough to have experienced most of the NZ bungy's and this is way up there. My girlfriend, who was not at all keen made this her first, and loved it. I would recommend this to anyone, especially to those who haven't jumped before and are a bit hesitant. The... More
