While there\u2019s no shortage of things to jump off of or mountains to scale, there\u2019s also a great wine scene and emerging culinary culture in the city, too.

Take a leap of faith from the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge, the very first commercial bungy jumping spot in the world. The even braver can head out to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bungy.co.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AJ Hackett\u2019s<\/a> Nevis site to jump from the 440 foot (134m) tall bungy platform dangling between the steep canyon walls. Too scared to do it alone? You can also ride the tandem rope swing that will send you sailing across the canyon with the partner of your choice.<\/p>\n<p>After surviving a hair-raising morning, celebrate at the city\u2019s favorite burger joint, <strong>Fergburger<\/strong> (42 Shotover St, Queenstown). Bungy jumping first and eating second\u00a0is important as you won&#8217;t want to\u00a0jump from a bridge <em>after<\/em> a big burger (you\u2019ll thank us for this advice later). Order one of their famous burgers or a specialty concoction like the \u201cSweet Bambi\u201d with wild deer in a Thai plum sauce.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, make your way to the top of <strong>Queenstown Hill<\/strong> for some epic views of the city and surrounding nature. This hill is actually a small mountain standing at 2,976 ft (907m) and also sometimes goes by its M\u0101ori name of Te Tapu-nui (which translates to the mountain of intense sacredness). There are a few ways up and the ambitious can hike to the top, while the rest of us will probably opt for the <strong>Skyline Gondola<\/strong> (Brecon St, Queenstown 9300). At the top, you are rewarded with 360-degree views of Queenstown, the Remarkables mountains and beyond.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_52069\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-52069\" class=\"size-full wp-image-52069\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-3.jpg\" alt=\"queenstown-3-days-gettingstamped\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-3-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-3-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-52069\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A view from the top of Queenstown Hill | Photo by GettingStamped.com<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Along with the views at the top, there\u2019s also the <strong>Skyline Luge<\/strong>, which is basically a gravity powered go-cart track cut into the top of Queenstown Hill.

The boats of <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shotoverjet.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shotover Jet<\/a><\/strong> are like no other boats you\u2019ve ever seen before. These boats speed through the narrow river canyons at blinding speed powered by near\u20131,000 horsepower water jet engines. These sophisticated vessels can run on just a few inches of water and turn on a dime. The thrill of the Shotover Jet comes as the captain brings you closer than comfort to tall stone canyon walls but narrowly avoids them at the last second taking advantage of the boat\u2019s nimbleness. There\u2019s also no shortage of hyper-speed 360-degree spins and other wild maneuvers while on board.<\/p>\n<p>For those who like a bit more control over their boat rides, whitewater rafting is also a popular activity on the Kawarau River. Wind your way through class III-V rapids, including Queenstown\u2019s famous Dog Leg Rapid. It\u2019s best to plan this activity toward the end of the day because there\u2019s no avoiding getting completely soaked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2016\/11\/5-adrenaline-fueled-destinations-for-thrill-seekers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> 5 unbelievable adrenaline-fueled destinations for thrill seekers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_52074\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-52074\" class=\"size-full wp-image-52074\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped.jpg\" alt=\"queenstown-3-days-gettingstamped\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-600x398.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Queenstown-3-days-GettingStamped-400x265.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-52074\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sail the Milford Sound, one of the top spots around Queenstown | Photo by GettingStamped.com<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><strong>Day 3: Milford Sound and Queenstown&#8217;s finer things<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>After a busy few days jumping off of stuff, spend your last day in the city\u00a0at a more relaxed pace by enjoying some of its finer things, starting with an early wake-up call to one of the gems of the South Island\u2014the Milford Sound.
