Dan’s Queenstown Adventure - Part 1

We sent Dan to get the low down on just what Queenstown really has to offer, turns out it just might be all it's cracked up to be...

"It was my first day in Queenstown – my first hour to be precise when I rushed to catch a bus to the famous Kawarau Bridge, the home of the world’s first commercial bungy. Having done a bungy jump before and simply ‘fallen off’ and not actually jumping I approached this one with a sense of determination – really I was after redemption and was looking to put the ‘jump’ back into ‘bungy jump'.

As you can see from the photos, I am satisfied with the outcome and I think I restored a bit of pride, I'd give myself a 7/10 for distance and a 8/10 for style and execution (but that’s just me). I'd recommend the Bungy Jump - Kawarau Bridge, Queenstown to anyone in a heartbeat, the staff are great and some how make leaping off a bridge attached only to some cord a justifiable thing. It really does have a feel for being the home of the bungy jump; the venue has old memorabilia and even a theatre which has a documentary about the history of bungy jumping which only adds to the experience.

After the jump it was back to the hotel to finally unpack…but there was many more adventures to come…stay tuned for more…."

Nice one Dan, if you'd like to have a taste of what Queenstown can dish out you can book by clicking Bungy Jump - Kawarau Bridge, Queenstown.
