Tandem skydiving is the fastest, easiest and safest way for an inexperienced skydiver to enjoy the thrill of jumping out of a plane, free falling through the sky at 200kph/120mph and floating safely to the ground under a parachute.

5.00The Team at Franz Josef Skydive were all amazing. Could not fault anything. They kept you up to date with what was going on and made you feel really safe when you were about to throw yourself out of a plane

5.00This exceeded all expectations! My girlfriend and I both jumped. She was terrified of this part of our trip for weeks, but after doing it feels a million times better. The place was very professional, clean, and enjoyable. You can't get that view anywhere else. A MUST do!
Awesome experience!

5.00The team were brilliant from the administration all the way through to the bus journey back. Everyone was so friendly. They must be used to dealing with hysterical people on a regular basis! I was really impressed with how open and honest the company was, and although my timings were quite rigid they were so accommodating. My Sky Dive Master was Harvey. He was really funny and reassuring throughout. It’s a bit scary putting your life in someone’s hands, but I felt safe with him considering. It’s my first time not to scream on the initial fall so I think that says something! Thank you again Harvey and the Team! 😄
