It was nice to be able to see all of the local birds in New Zealand. Getting to see the kiwi in their dark room felt a little bit like playing Where's Waldo. They made us wait a bit, but they were worth the anticipation. The guide at the front was ridiculously funny and super friendly. Only downside is that multiple areas of the park were closed for construction, which limited us to far fewer exhibits
Best Kiwi bird viewing to date, and I've seen a dozen or so enclosures to date. The park is cool, get right up to the animals....fun for the kids too as the some of the birds are well adjusted to human presence. Park is currently under minor renovation, but still quite good.
Cool place, but only 5 kiwis on display in the whole park, so if they are sleeping, you can't actually see any Kiwi. Kiwi are only active around 4-6 hours/day. The lady working told us they are most active around 1-2pm there. I was told they have about 20 more in the breeding house, but you can't see them. They do have an open aviary you can see some birds up close and several geckos. They are doing construction so several areas were closed.
Went here to see some kiwis and to learn more about them. Definitely got the experience. There were other birds in the kiwi house also. There's an aggressive duck that made the experience really enjoyable. Charged at us and quacked loudly every time he saw us. Some cute geckos too.
Great experience. Ticket guarantees repeat entry to allow you to see the kiwi if you miss first day. You can also come and go on the day. Easy walk around. Plenty for kids to look, search and find. Lovely friendly staff. Park opposite for lunch time break.Visited onWeekday
Visited twice now, two main kiwi bird areas where we've seen kiwi foraging on both visits. Heaps cool. Lots of exhibit areas along a easy pace walk track, cool eel area and the aviary is great! Staff know their stuff.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the birds and reptiles at the sanctuary. It’s really cool to see birds that are difficult to see in the wild. Ticket prices are pretty reasonable considering it allows you to listen to all the talks and feed the Kakariki.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

It was OK we're lucky to see a kiwi come straight up to us. The bird feeding was sad as all the adults selfishly took the bird feeding cups and didn't share or offer all the children to feed the birds. Disgusting behavior. Lots of other interesting animals to see.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
