Skydive with Taupo Tandem Skydiving! We are the top rated skydive company on TripAdvisor. Ready for adrenalin? Race through the air at 200kph and when you hit the brakes, take in the gorgeous mountain vistas and beautiful Lake Taupo below as you parachute back to middle earth. Being a Qualmark endorsed activity, your safety is paramount. Get primed for a radical experience with TTS, over 200,000 jumps since 1992!

The beauty of tandem skydiving is that you don’t have to do a thing. Your experienced tandem master will walk you through every step of the way. We provide harnesses, safety goggles and jumpsuits, and even give you a free buff to wear during the jump, which is yours to take away. On arrival you will fill out a waiver form, then our friendly ground crew will run you through all of the available options. Once you have decided on your camera and altitude options it’s time to get geared up and meet your tandem master!

After a short safety briefing, you will board the plane, for a 15-minute scenic flight to altitude. Once at 12,000 ft the door will open and it’s time to jump! After exiting the plane you will freefall at speeds of 200kph for 60 seconds. At 5,000 ft your tandem master will deploy the parachute and you can catch your breath while taking in the stunning views of the Lake Taupo area. Once back on the ground it’s time for a high five - you did it!!

Outstanding experience

Right from the welcome at the door on arrival you know you are in a safe environment and jumping out of a plane at 15,000 feet is made easier for it. Fantastic team and incredible experience. My first time and they made it really comfortable and exciting. The quality of the photo and video package I purchased was excellent, so definitely go for that option if you can. Totally professional team with a great mix of experience and humour. Safety first all the way, with multiple checks by different instructors of everyone’s gear before boarding. Opt for these guys if you are considering skydiving in Taupo - you won’t regret it.
