Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It was my first time doing skydiving, I did the 16,000ft jump. I was paired with Shaun who was a great instructor and helped ease my nerves. It was a surreal experience would 100% recommend.

All they care about is tandem $$ here. Good luck getting on the airplane if you're a sporty jumper. Poor customer service.

Hi there. We do care about our tandem customers yes, but as a very sport-friendly dropzone, we disagree with your comments. Unfortunately you did not contact us or make a reservation prior to your arrival (we ask you to do this on our website). While we did attempt to begin your sport registration process, you did not have your required documents including evidence of your sport skydiving certificate. Aaron did what he could to help you, but he was actually scheduled to be on skydives with tandem customers that were booked in. This may not have been the outcome you wanted, but it was not poor customer service at all. Had we known in advance that you wanted to jump with us, we could have sent you the registration information and reminded you of the documentation you are required to have to be able to skydive and you could have made a reservation. We care about our sport skydivers here and we have a dedicated sport skydiving information page on our website with clear instructions.

I just came back from my first Skydive experience ever. What better place to do it than New Zealand. I’m trying to find the words to sum up how incredible this experience was, I’ve waited years to skydive and I’m so happy I chose Skydive Auckland for my first one.
What a fantastic team working there. Many thanks to Monique, Beth, my awesome tandem instructor Matt. M , who really made this a fantastic experience. As excited as I was I was slightly nervous and he was great to talk to. Many thanks to my great camera man Matt. G. I got the ultimate combo photo and video package and while it’s definitely pricey I’d say it is 100 % worth it. I’ve just taken a first look at my videos and photos and I’m thrilled with the result and fantastic memories. Thank you to Pierce, the pilot who flew the plane and to Dylan.
If I ever get the chance to come back to New Zealand I will definitely come Skydive with this company again. An awesome staff and an incredible and unforgettable experience.

Amazing 2nd jump! Everyone at Skydive Auckland made it an exceptional experience. Mark picked me up at my hotel right on time and Monique made sure everything was clear and ready before the jump. Aaron was the perfect tandem master - he made me comfortable and guided me through everything. Pierce knew his aircraft and got us up to altitude quickly and safely. The real hero was Dylan, though. He packed the chute and I’m here to show he did a good job. Thanks again to the crew! Hope to be back someday 🤙🤙

I went skydiving for the first time and all the staff at Skydive Auckland was amazing. I jumped with Matt and he was really good at making me feel safe and excited about the jump. I also bought the photo and video package and another Matt captured great pictures for me. This was an amazing excperiance.
