Adventurers experience the heightened sensations of being outside the observation decks on a 1.2m Walkway, with absolutely nothing on either side except a 192m drop off. There are no handrails on this walk - just a full body harness and overhead safety lines to keep you safe. « less

So much fun doing the SkyWalk this week! Very professional, efficiently run, so much fun - highly recommend this to all. Loved the option of buying photos and the video at the end - you really need to come away with evidence of having done this so your friends believe you!! :)

...the answer is yes! But as a birthday and anniversary pressy for my husband who has no problems with heights we ventured out high above Auckland. As we live and work around auckland we knew our landmarks but still very interesting, safe and definitely something different. Our guide made me feel very safe and not pushy at all as i... More

I certainly do not have a wild streak, but I enjoyed this thrilling skywalk atop the Auckland landmark, the Sky Tower. You are strapped in the entire way, with a harness and a friendly, helpful and reassuring guide. And yes, you need reassurance! But I felt safe and secure, and t he views at sunset from this perch were do... More

Circumvented my natural fear emotions to do this anyway and so glad I did. Guide was really good and confident which helped you to become more relaxed. Jess got us out on the platform and stopped us to talk to get us used to being that high up without a hand rail. We chatted as we walked round and took... More

If heights isn't you thing this could easily be.Friendly welcome and quickly suited/harnessed ready for elevator ride to shared viewing platform with skyjump folk and this really confirms this will be a walk in the park.All the while safety reinspections/answers to questions are further explained and suddenly with double harness you are on a walk way and views and angles...

I did this as part of the Look and Leap package. I found this part to be great value for money! The guide (I think his name was Dylan - Canadian guy) was excellent. He pointed out lots of landmarks ad gave us some historical information. In fact, I only had a short stay and he pointed out some things... More

Even though it was a grey day with some threatening rain showers it was a great experience. 360 degree views over Auckland and out to the Hauraki Gulf and Manukau Harbour are fantastic. Not for the faint of heart as you walk around the tower on a path with no rails and you are given some "challenges" to perform.

Bought this experience for my wife's birthday. After she got over her panic attack and realised it wasn't the jump, she really enjoyed it. Trusting in your harness takes the fear away, and the view is fantastic. The time goes by very quickly. Would do it again any day

I was lucky to find a clear day for my visit to the top of the tower. Well worth the ride to see some fantastic views of Auckland.
