Of all of the activities we will do on this adventure – taking that last step to the edge of the bungy tower will push you to your limits and challenge your inner most fears…Most people would never dream of throwing themselves of a high tower with their legs strapped together suspending by a giant rubber band – but if you can summon the courage and strength to jump – we guarantee you a sense of fun, exhilaration and most importantly achievement.
