Expensive for what you experience. Guides were extremely knowledgeable. Novice astronomers should do this. If you’ve seen Jupiter moons…maybe not.★

Reviews: Queenstown: Nevis Bungy - Australasia's Biggest Bungy!
Guest User2026-02-25
Seemed a lot of money at first, then you realise it’s actually good value considering the amount of work and people involved to make it all happen. The customer service by the Nevis bungy team is excellent too.
