Wanaka skydive- review

It was superb and amazing. Thanks to my tandem buddy aaron, i was able to skydive safely. Amazing view when diving down. It was my first dive. At first, it was scary when we accelerated down to earth. But, after reaching terminal velocity, i am no longer scared and just felt like flying in the air. I saw the three lakes, mt aspiring, mt cook, mountain ranges and so on. It was really exhilirating, thrilled, and extreme joy. Thanks to wanaka skydive for the wonderful experience.

Amazing first time skydive

Had an unforgettable time with Skydive Wanaka! Jumping from 12,000 ft over Wanaka was exciting and unforgettable. Big thanks to my instructor Jamie — friendly, calm, and made me feel confident the whole time. The staff were great and they were cool as cucumbers!! The freefall was an amazing adrenaline rush, and the views during the parachute ride were stunning. The photos and videos turned out awesome too. 🤩🤩 Highly recommend Skydive Wanaka to anyone visiting New Zealand!

Amazing time !! Thank you Rob

What an incredible experience jumping from 15,000 ft! The whole team was friendly and very professional. Big thanks to Rob—he was amazing and made the whole jump enjoyable even though I was very scared. He makes you laugh so you don't think about the anxiety too much. Highly recommend to anyone thinking about skydiving! Wanaka has a stunning scenery.

Amazing experience!

What can I say - WOW! We booked this for a friends birthday present and no regrets. The staff are amazing and make you feel completely relaxed about the jump. Jumping from 15000 ft is definitely the way to go as the views and experience are something you want to last as long as you can. We debated paying extra for the video but decided to do it last minute and would highly recommend as a momento, especially if it’s your first time. Can’t wait to do it again!

Very disappointed customer

I was impressed with the staff that took my daughter on the jump but the video I paid $209 dollars for was disgusting could even get her face on the initial jump out the plane then couldn't see her properly through the jump i will be telling everyone I know that the video and photos are just a money grab waste of money and is very upsetting it all should have come in the package not happy and will do it again ruined my experience with wanaka sky dive

Absolutely Incredible!!

The most amazing experience. Staff were so attentive and friendly. We had our jump delayed by an hour or so due to operational issues but the staff kept us informed so no bother at all. Huge shout out to Lucas the instructor who I jumped with, made the experience even more memorable, the best vibes- had the most amazing time! Thank you all so much for!

Skydive

Skydive Wānaka was definitely an experience. The skydive itself was very cool, flying, seeing what’s around but the staff.. not so good. The receptionists were lovely but the men who you skydive with were not pleasant. They never really smiled, spoke to you, listened or anything. Just boring and bland. It made our experience really awkward and looking back at photos doesn’t feel great. I loved the skydive and would recommend it just maybe not here and seeing other reviews I would assume it’s clear this isn’t the best place. Overall 3/5 as the skydive was fun and not all of it was bad but the pictures were also heavily overpriced for what you get. Not the best!
