The Victoria Esplanade

Kids and I had so much fun. We went on the train ride. Visited the well manicured Rose garden. The place was absolutely clean, people were friendly. So much to do at 1 spot. We loved it. Well maintained playground.

There's something for everyone here from train rides, nature walk trails, river walkway, beautiful botanical garden, bird sanctuary, birdwatching, picnic spots, lots of shady trees, mini golf and playground. This place is great if you are planning to spend a couple of hours outdoors.

Victoria Esplanade is a beautiful park with well-maintained gardens, walking trails, and a playground. It’s perfect for a relaxing stroll, a family picnic, or some quiet time in nature. The rose garden is particularly stunning, especially in bloom. Overall, it’s a lovely spot to unwind and enjoy the outdoors.

We spent a very happy time at the Esplanade cafe, which has pleasant family focused meals, the animal rehabilitation centre where the tuatara and kaka were visible, and the playground. It was a fun day.

This is a great place to take children and to walk around the grounds. They have a miniature railway, which will be an interesting ride. There are a good variety of activities children can enjoy themselves on. It is a great place to bring the family a picnic. We'll worth visiting.
