While individual times vary, please allow the following as a guide: Bungee Jump: Allow at least 2 hours on site. ### How safe is bungee jumping and what safety systems are in place? Safety is a top priority. Each participant is secured using both an ankle and a waist harness, with separate attachment points to the jump station for added security. All participants are checked by five separate crew members before jumping, and every step is explained to ensure you're confident before the jump. All equipment is professionally tested and certified, and staff receive regular training and assessments to maintain high safety standards. ### What insurance do you have? The operation holds full public liability insurance, covering legal responsibility in the unlikely event of negligence. However, participants are advised to arrange their own personal insurance to cover participation in adventure activities. ### Do you cater for group bookings? Yes, large group bookings are welcome — including stag and hen parties, charity events, and corporate teams. ### What happens after I book my bungee jump? Once your booking is confirmed, the centre will send you a booking confirmation email. This email will contain your exact jump time and all relevant details for your experience. Additionally, you’ll receive an event pack attached, which will include helpful information such as what to bring, safety guidelines, and answers to common questions. Make sure to check your inbox (and spam folder) to ensure you have all the information needed before your jump. ### What is the difference between a solo, tandem, and FAB bungee jump? A solo bungee jump involves just you taking the leap, securely harnessed by both ankle and waist straps for a thrilling solo experience. A tandem jump lets you share the excitement with a friend or loved one, with both of you jumping together, attached to the same bungee cord. The FAB (Forward and Backward) bungee jump gives you two jumps in one: the first is a traditional headfirst jump, followed by a second jump where you lean out backwards before letting go, offering a completely different sensation. Each type provides a unique way to experience the rush of bungee jumping. ### Is the Salford Quays bungee jump easy to get to by public transport? Yes – Salford Quays is well-connected by public transport. The closest Metrolink stop is ‘Salford Quays’ on the Eccles line, just a short walk from the jump site. Several bus routes also serve the area, and Manchester city centre is only a few stops away. If you're coming by train, Manchester Piccadilly and Victoria stations both have direct links to the tram network for easy access. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot-2025-05-08-094101-1.png - **Gallery image count**: 13 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
