Summary Description

Take a 20-minute plane ride to altitude where you'll then leap from a plane with your tandem master. Freefall for up to 45 seconds above Lake Taupo where you can take in stunning views of mountains, volcanoes, scenery from Lord of The Rings and all the wonders of the Central North Island.

After the freefall, your tandem master will deploy the parachute where you can enjoy a 5-7 minute parachute ride back to ground where you get to enjoy everything you just achieved!

Land back at the dropzone for some high-5's and hugs... because you just completed a skydive!
