    Tandem sky diving experience

    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, Richard Nalder

    Best Skydive Ever 🩵

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

    Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Auckland.

    How much does Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive cost?

    +

    Prices start at $375 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Auckland usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Auckland is not rushed.

    Is Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,662 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Auckland, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive?

    +

    Around 582 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Auckland can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Auckland and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Auckland: 13,000, 16,000 or 18,000ft Tandem Skydive start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Auckland within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Auckland?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Auckland experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hobbiton and Waitomo Glowworm Caves Tour with Lunch from Auckland, Hobbiton Movie Set Small Group Tour with Cheeky Kiwi Travel, Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Day Trip from Auckland incl lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Auckland?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Auckland?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
