Bungee Jumping · London
How to choose
Both jumps are 160 ft (roughly 49 metres of freefall) and run by The UK Bungee, so the core rush is identical. The real difference is location. The Battersea Park jump (128.87 £) meets at Chelsea Gate Car Park on the south bank, easy to reach via Battersea Power Station tube. The King's Cross jump (131.03 £) meets at Coram's Fields near Bloomsbury, better positioned if you're staying in north or central London. The 2.14 £ price gap is negligible. Pick based on which side of the city you're in, or which post-jump pub you'd rather walk to. Both sessions run 2.5h with no prior experience required.

Frequently asked questions
How high is the jump?
Both jumps are 160 ft, which puts you at roughly 49 metres above the ground before the cord pulls you back up.
What's the most intense moment of a bungee jump?
The first second after you step off the platform. You're in freefall before the cord engages, and that initial drop triggers the full adrenaline response most jumpers describe as overwhelming.
Do I need bungee experience to book either jump?
No. Both jumps are listed as 'Everybody welcome', so first-timers and experienced jumpers book the same session.
Which jump gives better value for the price?
The Battersea Park jump at 128.87 £ is the cheaper option by 2.14 £ for an identical 160 ft drop and 2.5h session. It's the pick if price is your deciding factor.
How long does the actual jump last compared to the full session?
The session is 2.5h, which includes safety briefing, harness fitting and your jump. The freefall itself lasts only a few seconds before the cord stretches and rebounds.
