This was amazing and the perfect amount of scary for my fear of heights
This was amazing and the perfect amount of scary for my fear of heights. I loved it and will highly recommend! I did the Nevis Swing and after the initial drop it was smooth sailing from there it was absolutely awesome and everyone around me enjoyed my scream as it was so loud because I asked her not to do a countdown and just to drop me.
All the staff were friendly and energetic
All the staff were friendly and energetic, from those checking us in, the bus driver and the staff at the Nevis Swing. It was an extremely enjoyable experience and I will definitely be recommending AJ Hackett and the Nevis Swing to friends and family.
What you can expect
The world’s Most Famous Nevis Swing. Ditch the ordinary and launch into the extraordinary on the world’s most famous swing. The Nevis Swing hurls you into a 70-metre drop and 300-metre arc, high above the Nevis River — solo or tandem, forwards, backwards, upside down, or any way you dare. You’re not in control of the drop – that’s part of the magic.
Whether you choose a countdown or a surprise release, the second you leave the platform, it’s pure, unfiltered freedom. This isn’t just for thrill-seekers – it’s for anyone ready to challenge themselves, rewrite their story, and scream from the sky. Located at the remote Nevis Playground and accessible only by 4WD shuttle from Queenstown, the Nevis Swing offers an epic setting, pro crew support, and a high-stakes environment that makes you feel like part of something massive. Includes: Photo & Video package, and mandatory return transport from Queenstown.
