Not for the faint hearted!

New Zealand is renowned for its extreme sports. These activities are another way to enjoy New Zealand's spectacular scenery. New Zealand is the land of thrills and many travellers come to try different activities for maximum thrills. From bungee jumping to skydiving, jet boating to rafting, the choice is yours.

Aboad your motorhome you will discover the country of extreme sensations, New Zealand. Bungee jumping is a tribal practice and also a rite of passage for many people exploring this country. You can bungee jump from a bridge, cliffs, viaducts or platforms. This activity can be done on both islands, but around Queenstown there are four official sites that offer impressive views of the city.

If you want to admire the snowy mountains and breathtaking views with maximum adrenaline, then parachuting is the activity for you. We suggest jumping over Lake Wanaka, a few kilometers from Queenstown. The Bay of Plenty is also a great place to jump and has stunning views of the waters and volcanic landscapes.

Jet boating guarentees speed and thrills surrounded by beautiful landscape. The best jet boat course is in the Canterbury region on the South Island or around Queenstown.

Another thrilling activity is rafting. There are a number of fast rivers nestled between forests and the ocean in coastal areas. If you are on the North Island in your motorhome, we suggest going to the Bay of Plenty and Hawke's Bay. On the South Island try some rafting near Christchurch, Queenstown and along the west coast.
