Calling out adrenaline junkies and thrill seekers to have one awesome time at Auckland’s Sky Tower! Take a leap of faith with SkyJump before focussing your attention on perfecting your balance as part of the SkyWalk experience, with all of Auckland ahead of you.
Take the plunge from 192 meters in the air
Plummet down 53 floors for a total of 11 seconds at some 85 kph for one electrifying and truly unforgettable experience. The Sky Tower’s SkyJump not only exposes you to the elements but also gives you the perfect opportunity to enjoy a rush of adrenaline never felt before. Watch as the city’s nearby buildings rush up to meet you prior to you landing at the platform of SkyCity Plaza.
Have the walk of a lifetime
For a less intense activity that will still make your heart skip a beat, then do give the SkyWalk a try. With only safety lines and a full-body harness to work with, the SkyWalk will see that you cover the 1.2-meter-wide platform, 192 meters up in the air and minus any handrails to hold onto.
View Auckland from multiple levels
Soak in the appeal of Auckland from either of the two observation decks that are found at Sky Tower. The Sky Deck (220 meters) is the highest of the two and in turn, offers you views that would stretch out for as far as 82 km. The 186-meter-high Main Observation Deck, complete with glass flooring will give you a dizzying view straight down to the ground.
Ride the SkySlide
Be part of a 360º virtual reality tour that will have you soaring across the sky and sliding through glass tubes as you make your way around Sky Tower. Accessible at the Main Observation Deck, riding the SkySlide makes visiting Sky Tower one of the best things to do in Auckland City, which can be achieved by residing at Avani Auckland Metropolis Residences.
