Where to skydive?

Cairns – See the Great Barrier Reef from above

Whilst your in Cairns it’s pretty likely that you’ll be heading out on a snorkelling or scuba trip of the great barrier reef! You’ve seen it underwater… now how about seeing it from the sky! This absolutely massive beauty can even be seen from space and you can see it from a birds eye view by doing a skydive up here. Not only will you see the reef, you’ll also be able to see the Daintree Rainforest from the sky!

Mission Beach – Land on the beach!

The home of the beach skydiving landing, Mission beach offers epic views and a landing like no other. If you didn’t know already, all the other skydive locations, you’ll be landing in the airfield after your jump. Not in Mission Beach though! You’ll be landing right on the sand and coming very close to the sea! It’s an epic experience and one of our faves because of its unique landing.

Byron Bay – Give us a wave

Byron Bay is an absolute beauty from the ground but even better from 15,000ft! You’ll see how vast the hinterland around Byron is and also see all of the beautiful crystal clear water and rolling beaches. This doubles up as a scenic flight as you’ll see all of the cape {where the lighthouse is!} as well as the surrounding area. If you do it between July and October you might even see the whales on their migration!

Sydney – Does it get anymore iconic??

If you are starting your east coast roadie in Sydney then what better than to dive right into the deep end and do a skydive checking out this world famous city and the surrounds?! If you are ending your trip here then what better way to round up your trip of a lifetime! Basically, jumping in Sydney is an epic option and you’ll get to take in those good views yewwwwwwww.

Aussie offers so many adrenalin experiences and skydiving is absolutely up there, the RatPack crew love a skydive.. So much so that some of our crew have jumped up to 3 times!!

We’ve dropped some of our top tips below when it comes to your skydive:

  • Wear trainers and gym gear (aka not loose clothing!)
  • You can’t take your own go pro, if you want to get shots of your experience, buy the camera and video package at the jump zone
  • Allow at least half a day for the whole experience!
  • Book with us and we can save you $$$ on the direct rate yewwww!

Great service, great experience. We were short on time and they helped us all the way to secure vans for a big group of people. Very kind and understanding. They explained everything to us on our own pace and it‘s such a big help to have somebody who has experience in this topic.

We were drowning in all the possibilities when it comes to renting a van for our new Zealand trip, luckily for us there was lifeguard Thijs from RatPack to safe us. All kidding aside, we were amazed at the great service and contacting RatPack is the best decision we made for our entire half year trip. P.s. ask for Thijs, he was amazing!

Great service!

Just booked out camper trip in Australia through "The Rat Pack travel" and I must admit Gregg made it so easy for us, we gave him our dates and he did all the work of finding a camper van that suited our needs and got it at a great price for us. He was so helpful I would highly recommend the RatPack Teavel 👍🏻💯

Ratpack's Reuben was such a huge help to us. We couldnt find any campervan as all we had contacted were booked and our flight was just a day away. When we gave our scenario, Reuben was very patient and worked tirelessly to get a camper for us ASAP and kept in contact with us via calls n whatsapp giving us what options he could find. He found a camper for us in just a few hours. thanks so much! Truly appreciate ur work! -Isaac

Gregg was great help! We received help instantly, to find the best deal on vans in the southern island! At no extra charge! Infact we saved our selves over $2000-2500 by picking up and dropping off in a different city and then an additional discount from the company! Couldn’t recommend enough! Gregg really toke the work out of it for us!

Grateful service and super fast
