Double Adrenaline Bungee and Slingshot Combo

Fear gets very practical at 128 meters. This Cusco combo pairs one of Latin America’s tallest bungee jumps with a Superman-style slingshot that shoots you more than 130 meters into the air. I like the two-for-one adrenaline and the clear support from bilingual instructors. I also like that your group takes part privately, rather than being mixed into a large public tour.

The main caution is time. The activity is advertised at about two hours, but bungee jumping can take two to three hours when several people arrive together. At $179 per person, it is a serious splurge for a short burst of action, though the safety equipment, electronic certificate, and optional video services add value for people who want a lasting record.

Key points before you book

• Two major rides in one visit: You get a 128-meter, 420-foot bungee jump and a Superman slingshot that rises more than 130 meters.
• The slingshot is over quickly: The upward launch takes about four seconds, creating a powerful flying sensation before the ride is over.
• Bilingual instruction matters: Professional instructors explain the process and safety steps in English and another language.
• Plan for a flexible two to three hours: The exact time can change when several people are scheduled together.
• Start in Cusco’s Historic Center: Pickup is arranged from the operator’s office near Plaza Regocijo, with the exact location sent after booking.
• Record the moment if you want: HD and drone video services are available for an additional cost.

Two extreme rides at Action Valley

This is not a gentle sightseeing stop with a small thrill added on. The entire point is controlled fear, fast movement, and the satisfaction of doing something that makes your stomach protest.

The first activity is a 128-meter bungee jump, equal to about 420 feet. That height puts it among the tallest free falls in Latin America, according to the tour description. You step from a platform, fall on the bungee system, and then rebound below the jump point. The supplied information does not give a detailed sequence for the jump itself, so your instructor’s briefing is the best guide for the exact body position and procedure on the day.

The second ride is called the Slingshot, or Superman. You are catapulted skyward more than 130 meters in roughly four seconds. The name makes sense: this is designed to create the sensation of flying, rather than the hanging, dropping feeling associated with bungee jumping.

I like the contrast between the two. Bungee gives you a moment of decision followed by a free fall. The slingshot gives you a sudden launch, with the force arriving immediately. If you are nervous about one, the other may feel different enough to offer a fresh challenge.

What happens from Plaza Regocijo onward

The meeting point is the operator’s office in Cusco’s Historic Center, near Plaza Regocijo. The exact location is sent after booking, so do not assume that simply walking to any part of the plaza will be enough. Pickup is offered, and the activity is also near public transportation.

Departure slots run hourly from 9:00 a.m. through 4:00 p.m., with 4:00 p.m. listed as the final departure. That spread makes it easier to fit the activity into a Cusco schedule. A morning slot leaves the afternoon open, while a later departure can work after other plans.

The activity includes a professional briefing and safety equipment before either ride. This is an important part of the experience, not wasted time. The instructions are meant to make the two rides understandable, especially when the height and speed start to overwhelm your common sense.

The instructors are described as professional and bilingual. The strongest praise in the supplied comments focuses on clear explanations, friendly staff, and an operation that feels safe. One person specifically noted that the guides made everything easy to understand. That is exactly what you want here: calm, plain instructions before a very unnatural thing.

The 128-meter bungee jump

The bungee is likely the more psychological challenge. The hard part is not only the height. It is standing on a platform and choosing to leave it.

At 128 meters, the fall is the headline feature. You are not making a small jump for a quick photo. This is a major free fall, and the height gives the experience its edge. The supplied comments describe the sensation as extreme, liberating, and short but unforgettable. One person said the intense part does not last more than about ten seconds, which is useful context: the fear builds much longer than the actual free fall.

The process may feel slow when you are waiting your turn. The listed time is about two hours, but bungee jumping can last two to three hours depending on how many people are present at the same time. That means your schedule should have room around the booking. Do not place an important timed activity immediately afterward.

The bungee is best for someone who wants a clear personal challenge. You do not need a complicated set of skills. You do need enough physical fitness for the activity and the willingness to follow instructions exactly. The listing says participants should have a strong physical fitness level, so treat that as a real requirement, not a casual suggestion.

The Superman slingshot and the four-second launch

The Slingshot is the more explosive of the two rides. You are launched upward more than 130 meters in about four seconds, producing the sensation of being thrown into the sky.

That short launch is useful to understand before you arrive. You do not get a long, gradual buildup. The force comes quickly, and the ride reaches its main height almost at once. People who prefer the feeling of flight may like this more than the bungee. One supplied comment specifically called the slingshot the favorite part of the combo.

The name Superman also tells you how the ride is meant to feel. Your body is positioned to suggest flight, rather than a simple vertical drop. The exact setup and restraints should be confirmed during the safety briefing, since the supplied information does not provide technical details about the harness arrangement.

If you are buying the combo, I see good logic in doing both activities instead of choosing only one. The rides test different nerves. The bungee asks you to step into empty space. The slingshot gives you a sudden blast of upward motion. Together, they make the price easier to justify than paying $179 for one short ride.

Safety, instruction, and the private group setup

Safety is the part of this activity that deserves your full attention. The experience includes full safety gear, professional instructors, and a briefing before the rides. The positive comments repeatedly highlight friendly staff and instructions that were easy to follow.

The instructors are bilingual, and the experience is offered in English. That matters because a safety briefing should never be reduced to gestures and guesses. If you have a question, ask it before you are harnessed or standing on the platform. This is not the place to nod politely and hope you understood.

The activity is private, meaning only your own group participates. That does not guarantee an instant start, since several people in your group may still need to take their turns. It does give the experience a more controlled feel than a large shared excursion.

The information does not list medical restrictions, maximum weight limits, or specific clothing rules. Because the activity requires strong physical fitness, you should contact the operator if you have health concerns or are unsure about your ability to participate. Do not treat a booking confirmation as proof that every physical condition has been cleared.

Is $179 a fair price?

At $179 per person, this is expensive by ordinary Cusco day-trip standards. You are not paying for a full day of ruins, meals, or several stops. You are paying for two specialized rides, safety equipment, trained staff, an electronic certificate, and the convenience of arranging both challenges in one booking.

The value depends on what you came to Cusco to do. If your trip centers on museums, markets, and archaeological sites, this may feel like an indulgence. If you are building your itinerary around unusual physical experiences, the combo makes more sense. Two distinct rides also offer better value than choosing a single activity and still wondering what the other one felt like.

The electronic certificate is a nice extra, though its practical value is sentimental. The optional HD or drone video services may matter more. These rides happen fast, and you may not remember every visual detail afterward. If you want clear footage of the launch or fall, ask about the video price before committing. The supplied information confirms that these services are available, but does not state their cost.

Timing your booking in Cusco

The activity is booked, on average, 118 days ahead. That is a strong sign that you should not assume you can wait until the last morning, especially if you want a specific departure time.

You can choose from eight hourly starts, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The early times are useful if you want to keep your afternoon free. The last departure may suit a packed sightseeing day, but the two to three-hour possible duration means you should not plan a late dinner or evening performance too tightly afterward.

Weather matters. The experience requires good weather, and poor conditions can lead to a cancellation. If that happens, you are offered another date or a full refund. This is one reason to avoid placing the activity on the final possible day of your Cusco stay.

You can cancel for a full refund if you do so at least 24 hours before the start time. Changes or cancellations inside that window are not accepted for a refund. The cut-off uses local time.

Photos, video, and the view from above

The setting gives you more than a mechanical thrill. One comment specifically praised the view, and another noted that professional video could be purchased, including footage from the ground and drone-style shooting.

The view is a useful part of the experience because the rides are so short. Once the adrenaline fades, the setting and the record of what you did may be what remains. HD or drone footage can also settle the argument about who actually looked brave.

Do not assume video is included in the $179 price. The tour includes an electronic certificate, while HD and drone video services are optional. Confirm the available packages at the site and decide before the rides if you want them. Trying to make that choice after the launch is too late, for obvious reasons.

Who should book this combo?

I would recommend it to a confident adult or physically fit participant who wants a high-adrenaline break from Cusco’s cultural sights. It suits people who enjoy short, intense experiences and do not mind paying a premium for organized safety support.

It is also a good fit for friends or couples who want to do something together but do not need a full-day tour. The private format keeps the group limited to your own party, and the two rides give everyone a clear comparison afterward.

I would be cautious if you have a tight schedule, dislike heights, or are unsure about the physical requirements. The positive comments are enthusiastic, but they also make clear that this is extreme. Friendly staff can explain the process, yet they cannot remove the height or the force of the launch.

Should you book the Double Adrenaline Combo?

Book it if you want one of Cusco’s biggest thrills and the idea of doing both rides appeals to you. The 128-meter bungee and four-second Superman launch offer genuinely different experiences, and the professional bilingual instruction, private group format, and safety gear make the high price easier to understand.

Skip it if you want a relaxed outing, a low-cost activity, or a carefully timed two-hour stop. Allow extra time, keep your schedule flexible, and check the weather forecast. For the right person, this is a memorable burst of courage. For everyone else, Plaza Regocijo has safer ways to spend the morning.
