-Shanty town is the old fashioned gold mining tourist attraction which is situated near Greymouth on the West Coast of the South Island.

-There isn't just one luge in NZ, however if you did it in a popular South Island spot I would guess at Queenstown which is probably the biggest and most well known.

-There are many bungy jumps in NZ, the home of bungy jumping!
Firstly there is Queenstown, where it is famous because that it where the first ever bungy occurred and is known as the home of bungy jumping.
There are also spots all over the country where you can bungy, including a beautiful spot near Hanmer Springs where you jump off an old bridge over a rushing river.
You can also jump off the sky tower in Auckland I believe, a very high leap!

Hope I've helped.
