It is exciting to visit a city which is known as the adventure capital of the world. We are talking about the city of Queenstown, New Zealand. It is said that in the mid-nineteenth century when the news of gold being found in the Shotover River in Queenstown spread, a crowd of people gathered there. When the gold over there ended, the people who reached the place noticed the beauty of the mountains and rivers and since then they decided to settle there. The adventure sports like skiing started in the middle of the last century.

Jet boating started in the 1970s. The world introduced with adventure sports due to Queenstown. The thrill of a jetboat ride is different from the deep tendons of the Shotover River. River rafting was also started in the rivers of Queenstown. AJ Hackett started bungee jumping in 1988, Queenstown is considered the inventor of bungee jumping. In today's time, there are many sites of bungee jumping.

At one time, Hackett and Company were doing bungee jumping by helicopter from a height of 450 meters. Due to this, after the change of government policies, they had to stop. Queenstown is also the main hub for tandem parapenting and commercial skydiving. Apart from this, there are other types of activities like tandem hang gliding, parasailing.
