There are countless activities to try in New Zealand, but probably the most famous is bungee jumping! AJ Hacket was a Kiwi who commercialized bungee jumping back in 1988, and these days you have a variety of bungee locations to consider in New Zealand. The North Island has New Zealand’s only ocean touch jump off the Auckland Bridge, while on the South Island you will find the country’s highest jump – named the Nevis – just outside Queenstown. For those looking for a slightly less terrifying experience, zorbing was also invented in Rotorua. This is essentially being stuffed in a giant inflatable hamster ball and pushed down a hill. Trust us, it is also great fun!
