This place had a wonderful selection of Kiwi wildlife, as well as a lot of information on other places to visit.
The young chap at the counter was so helpful and enthusiastic!
Thanks for your review :)

Go in the evening and back the next day on the same ticket to see kiwis at night and in the kiwi house during the day.
You can get very close to the kiwis and staff are very knowledgeable.
The kiwis are beyond cute.
Best stocked and best value gift shop we discovered over three weeks travelling. We bought most of our gifts there.

The Kiwi exhibition and the view behind the scenes was fantastic!
The whole park and its attractions was worth the money we spent. Ideal for families - also with young children. Lots of information and you can pat the fishes.
Thanks for your great review :)

I had heard that Kiwis were very rare and almost never seen so this was a pleasant surprise to be able to get up close with kiwis.
The staff were very good and made it a wonderful experience.
Thanks for a lovely review :)

This place is worth a visit if you are interested in wildlife.
They prepare baby kiwi birds for life in the wild and you can get up close to the birds. An interesting place

We wanted to see a kiwi and were rewarded with vies of a 2 hour old chick and another being fed, others weighed etc and we learned a lot about them!!
Need a greater variety of birds.
Thanks for your review :)

Great opportunity to see Kiwi.
All other attractions (animals, playground) are nice for a family with smaller kids.
Thanks for your kind review :)

Sorry to hear that you did not see a kiwi, did you visit the nocturnal kiwi house? Thanks for leaving a review.

Meeting with a kiwi bird, awesome bird show, not so big area, typical NZ flora.
You need to pay for a Kiwi encounter, special costs.
Thanks for your review :)

We are an adult couple and was not interested in the children's games, rides and playground.
The park is set up for families with small children. We appreciate the efforts the park is doing for kiwi conservation and paid the high admission, but did not care to partake in the park activities other than the extra kiwi tour which we had to pay extra.
Expensive admission to the park, but we felt better knowing the money was going to kiwi conservation. We opted to pay extra for behind the scenes tour and enjoyed seeing the newly hatched kiwi. The tour guide shared lots of interesting kiwi information. Tour was short and we expected to see or hear more.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review :)

Great and beautiful park with NZ bird and animal life!
Pay $2 more and you have a 24 hour pass and the kiwi bird habitat with baby kiwi and the kiwi bird at night when it walks just behind a knee high fence (downside no pictures).
Thanks for your review :)
