Just like to thank Aaron and his team
for nothing less than a sensational day. Total professionalism. The memories will last forever. Might do another on my 90th if I am not too decrepit. Thanks once again,

Incredible experience! The staff was friendly and informative. They are very encouraging. I felt very safe and in good hands. I will try to bring my friends with me next time; the ones that aren't scared of heights.

What an absolutely incredible experience at Skydive Auckland! From start to finish, everything was well organised, professional, and exciting.
A special shout-out to my instructor, Aaron, who made the entire experience even better. He was friendly, professional, reassuring, and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the jump. His experience and positive attitude helped turn what could have been a nerve-wracking moment into one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life!
The whole team was amazing, and I would highly recommend Skydive Auckland to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure. If you’re thinking about doing a skydive—just do it! You won’t regret it! 🪂🙌

Such an amazing experience with Skydive Auckland! 🪂 Did the 16,000ft jump and it was absolutely unforgettable.
Madi was the loveliest tandem master and made me feel so comfortable from start to finish. Joe got THE BEST shots ever — the Ultimate Video package was definitely worth it! 📸 And Glenn was amazing with all the assistance throughout.
Everyone was so lovely and professional. Would 100% do it again! 🪂❤️

Went yesterday (September 5th). Amazing experience; the worst part of it is that it ended. I found myself wishing that the ground would sink down a little more so that I could have more time parachuting through the sky and taking in the breathtaking view! Thank you so much to Sam and Joseph for being my tandem master and photographer (as part of the ultimate photos + videos package) respectively. Mark was also wonderful; he drove my skydiving cohort out and back from the Sky Tower, and I had a lot of fun chatting with both him and Glenn (who was working at the reception desk).
Only real “complaint” (for lack of a better word) I have is that I noticed that the sunscreen at the front desk (available for customer use) expired back in May of this year, and sunscreen isn’t of any use when it’s expired, so it would be nice to see that be remedied for when I jump next time (especially if I end up jumping in the summer, where the UV index is higher and wearing sunscreen is more important).
Overall, huge shoutout to the Skydive Auckland team for a wonderful, indelible experience! Can’t wait to do it all over again 🤘 🤩

I went from being super scared and stress during the lead up to loving the whole experience and not wanting it to end so quick. Thank you Owen and Madi for being amazing on our first skydive! ☕️
