It has long been stated (mainly by Kiwi’s) that Queenstown is THE place to go for fun, thrills and adventure travel.
Now Australia is set to change all that, with its range of heart pumping, fear inducing and in some cases tear jerking experiences.
Here is our guide to the Top Thrill Seeking experiences in the country – strap yourselves in!
Spine Tingling – The obligatory bungy jump. Put simply, it’s not a gap year unless you have done this! We recommend Cairns as your jump location, and if one is not enough then you can get an unlimited jump pass and try out the 16 different styles of bungy!!
