Hardcore travel spots
1) Costa rica- tropical bungee – 40 minutes along the Pan American Highway west of the capital, San Jose. You jump over a lush gorge on a no-traffic bridge. Jumps are done Saturdays and Sundays from 9 am to 2pm. Weekday trips are done with at least 4 persons. Transportation to the bridge costs $7 extra. They have been in business since September 1991.
Bilingual jumpmasters. Bridge (265 ft)
2) Ontario Canada – wilderness tower whitewater – The tower is located over the water of the Ottawa River at our Whitewater Rafting Resort. World-class whitewater rafting and kayak school. Full service resort with camping, cabins, chalets, log homes and cottages for rent. Season from May to September. Locted only 1.5 hour drive from Ottawa.
3) Equipe Adrena- Bungee Brazil -This is probably the tallest Bungee Jump of South America. There is just one taller arround, the one in Costa Rica in wich you jump from a Bridge. We are thinking to arrange jumps from helicopters and from a bridge its not that far (by car) from São Paulo.
4) Near Quito Ecuador- andes adrenaline adventures- This place is awesome, because you can skydive, and bungee jump, for 80$ US you can get 2 bungee jumps, and for a little more you can skydive. its an awesome spot.
5) Cuzco Peru- Hot air Balloon bugee- $40 US approx, A hot air balloon over the Sacsayhuaman Inca ruins. I’m told the jump is approx 100m. Jumps are only done from about 7-10.00am, before the wind picks up. But who wouldnt want to jump out of a hot air balloon, thats awesome!
6) Guatemala- Maya bungee- Maya expiditions. One of the bridges used is over the Rio Dulce river, a lovely tropical river with beautiful view, and the jumper may splash into the water. it super cheap 30$ for a jump, and they have lots of other stuff too, hiking, rock climbing, white water, etc…
7) Chile- Santiago – skydive andes – This is the most epic skydiving experience you will ever have. The best views around, the flight up is insane, and you get dropped at 9,000 feet in one of the most beautiful places around. these gys are good too, most of the skydiving videos you see around are from these guys.
Mexico – La Quebrada Cliffs – A group called the La Quebrada Cliff Divers performs death-defying dives nightly, with torches lighting the rock wall. This is the best cliff diving in the whole world in my mind. Epic height, and crazy adrenaline rush!.
9) Switzerland – Ponte Brolla- This place is best for professionals. World High Diving Federation held their European Cliff Diving Championships here – A very dangerous spot. Have to have juevos to make this jump.
10) Turkey – Corhu River, Class V rapids in May and June, thanks to melting snow in the Pontic Mountains, are run on day trips past ancient ruins and through vast canyons and valleys. This is an extreme run suitable for only die hard whitewater fanatics.
