From 9,000, 12,000m 15,000, or 18,500 feet you can see coast to coast views of the amazing North Island, not to mention the snow-capped volcanoes of Tongariro National Park and a huge expanse of Lake Taupo, the Southern Hemisphere’s biggest lake that spreads out below you.
With the crisp, clear days and blue skies of the gorgeous central plateau, Taupo really is New Zealand’s home of skydiving.

A very special experience, one that I will never forget! I personally found the atmosphere a bit too young/hip/backpackers, but that is just a detail, because it was an unforgettable day!

Thanks Sandra! And thanks for the feedback regarding the atmosphere, we'll take that into account.

The skydive in Taupo was the first one I ever did and it was amazing! I did the 15,000ft jump without any video package. The jump was one of the best experiences of my life, especially the moment you jump out of the plane.
Taupo Tandem Skydiving responds:
Thanks for the awesome review Luca!

Fantastic experience! All staff were so nice and very good at calming your nerves. Views were incredible. Wish the photo and video add ons were not so expensive.
Taupo Tandem Skydiving responds:
Thanks for jumping with us Tom! Just so you know our camera packages are some of the best-priced in New Zealand, and unfortunately there's not much we can do to bring that price down!
