Jumping out of a plane for the first time is always going to be a thrilling experience. So I'm not going to pretend it wouldn't have been with anyone else. But, I would recommend this company to anyone doing their first skydive.
My tandem was from 12000 feet, and with handy-cam DVD only cost NZ$160. They say Taupo is the cheapest place in the world for tandem skydiving, and I'd truly believe it!
The people at Taupo Tandem Skydiving were really helpful and professional, from offering free pickup from the hostel, to setting us up at our ease when we were looking a bit unsure in the plane. They even knocked down the price of my DVD because we fell through a cloud and got rain spots on the camera.
In fact, I enjoyed this first introduction to free fall so much, I've taken up skydiving as a hobby!!
