Auckland, sprawling in New Zealand’s North Island, is abound in tourist attractions varying from breathtaking landscapes to adrenaline rushing adventures. Among its prominent landmarks is one that virtually touches the Polynesian skies. This is the magnificent Sky Tower that can be seen from as far as 80 kilometres in any direction. And the Sky Tower is where you can experience the ultimate thrill of sky walking assured with the best safety measures.

Sky Tower is presently the tallest structure in New Zealand boasting a staggering height of 398 metres. The tower sits on the corner of Victoria and Federal Streets in the heart of the city. It offers three observation platforms providing the most spectacular panoramas of Auckland. You can enjoy succulent cuisines at its Observatory Restaurant or savour a new dine and spin sensation at its Restaurant Orbit that revolves 360 degrees.

But the most exhilarating experiences of all await you at 192 metres above ground. And these are the Sky Tower’s top attractions, SkyWalk and SkyJump, the greatest adrenaline rushes and pulse raisers you are about to experience.

SkyWalk lets you walk on a pergola, just over a metre wide, it encircles one of the observation decks of the Sky Tower. This pergola has no railing, in other words it gives you the spine tingling sensation of standing at the edge of a cliff, and one that is as steep as 192 metres. Feel the strong breeze and absorb the stunning panorama, where the buildings, cars and streets below will all appear just like Lilliputs of Gulliver’s Travels.

The Skywalk tour will let you learn more about Auckland’s key landmarks over and above the history of the city and the interesting milestones of Sky Tower. Named as SkyWalk 360, it is the best attraction to blow away your fear of heights and enjoy the stunning aerial views first hand. You will enter the SkyWalk in a special suit with a full body harness giving you maximum protection. Hence you can even dare yourself to take a peek below from the edge of the pergola and also get your picture taken as proof of your audacious feat.

Conversely SkyJump takes a step beyond SkyWalk giving you the remarkable sensation of freefall and skydiving in the most secured way. While keeping your adrenaline rush to the maximum, you will reach the ground in just 11 seconds at the speed of 85 kilometres per hour. Just as in SkyWalk you will wear the full body harness along with a special flying suit that will keep you comfortable and up right during your SkyJump. The landing will be slowed a few metres above ground to give you a smooth and comfortable touchdown.
