Risk Warning: Your participation in parachuting activities is inherently dangerous and may involve risks. These risks include, but are not limited to those arising from prevailing conditions such as weather or health conditions you may have. Despite careful packing, the parachute may open abruptly or not open correctly which may result in injury. Unintended incidents may occur during the aircraft flight, descent or on landing.
Parachuting is done at the parachutists' own risk. Any person parachuting, training to parachute, flying in any aircraft being used for parachuting or participating in any activity carried out by Skydive Wanaka or NZONE may only do so on the distinct understanding that they do so entirely at their own risk.

Unforgettable Skydiving Experience with an Amazing Instructor Lima

5.00Amazing experience with NZONE Skydive in Queenstown! My instructor Lima was extremely professional and made me feel safe and relaxed the entire time. He clearly explained every step, performed careful safety checks, and constantly reassured me before and during the jump. He also pointed out the incredible scenery so I could fully enjoy the breathtaking views instead of feeling nervous. Everything was well organized and smooth from start to finish. Truly an unforgettable experience — highly recommend to anyone visiting Queenstown!
POOR, Unsympathetic & Arrogant

1.00Didn't get to Jump. I am 65 years young & quite fit for my age. 18months ago I suffered a HA, a close call. This year my fiancee, as a surprised, bought online a tandem jump voucher with NZONE Queenstown. So on NZone's web page, you click on BOOK NOW, then you SCROLL down & under Conditions there are only 3 things listed: 1:If you are 95kgs or over please refer to our FAQ page 2:The minimum weight is 40kg/88lbs and all passengers must be big enough to fit safely into the harness 3:Minimum age is 6 years old. Other conditions may apply for children. Please refer to our FAQ page for full details Below is the only reference to pre existing (with NO time limit) or existing medical conditions. - Medical Conditions: NZONE must be notified prior to the jump date of any pre-existing or existing medical conditions, injuries or illnesses. You will also be asked when you check in and may require an assessment from our Safety Officer. Medical conditions which could affect the customer’s safety should be discussed with a doctor to ensure customers are fit to skydive. If required, bring a medical certificate with you from your doctor confirming you are okay to participate in a skydive. Please advise NZONE if you are taking prescription medication. It is our obligation to inform you that if you are experiencing cold or flu symptoms or blocked sinuses on the day of your skydive, it may potentially lead to further health complications during or after your jump, and we urge you to proceed with caution. So does pre existing incude my knee reconstruction from 25 years ago? By my own volition I notified them of the heart attack I suffered 18 months ago. They stated I need clearence from my Dr, then a review by their medical team before I could jump. All done and booked a date, however my Cardio specialist advised not to jump so I cancelled the date. I then sought a refund from NZONE as I wasn't coming back tio NZ anytime soon & I could not transfer it. They kept referring to the terms & conditions. So their entire website only refers to the 3 previously mentioned things. Their T&Cs do make reference to Medical conditions but does not specifically identify any scenario let alone serious ones eg Heart coindtions. Long story short we sought a refund & got a deny deny deny then 6 weeks further on all further corrospondence was just ignored. It seems once they have your money they are not much interested in anything else. My advice is if you want do this with this company then talk to them in person and ask all the Qs to ensure clarity. I further suggest NZONE tidy up their website and T&Cs & be more specific given this is a significant sport
Weather cancels most trips

5.00NZONE is a great operation. The people at checkin were friendly and helpful, the transport to the jump zone was comfortable, and the crew on the ground were amazing.
Jump to the top with Lima 👌🤟

5.00I loved it! It was my second NZ skydiving experience, and doing it over the lake and the Remarkables is just splendid! My instructor Lima was at the top, to give me all the instructions simply (despite my limited English) and point out the beautiful things we saw. The only regret... it's so short, fast, even when jumping 15,000 feet 😁
Disappointed.

4.00I had booked and paid for a jump of 15000foot and we only jumped from 12000 and were not informed about this. When I noticed the wg Certificate I checked with NZone. It was wg clouds..Please initiate a refund. Sincerely, Maureen Ollesch-Smits
