It is a great place to visit. So many amazing exhibits. We love taking the grandchild there. Hands on options as well. Kids love that.
A fab museum, runs off donations free entry. Not huge but the perfect size for an hour or two of exploring. Nice that it has the regional history rather than just repeating the national history. Friendly lady welcomed us and explained what was included in each exhibit and where to find the toilets!nnThere was also a toy/game station to amuse children near the entrance and a couple of other games/activities around the upstairs exhibits too.
This a great museum with awesome displays of many New Zealand Historical items and events. The displays were well laid out and the explanations were excellent. It would be one of the best museums I have visited in New Zealand.nnThe staff at reception were most helpful and very polite. They answered all my questions and helped to make my visit very worth while.
Very interesting Museum, with lots to learn about Māori and their history. You should plan enough time or visit on two different days, to have enough time to look at everything. The ladies from the reception were also very lovely and helpful. Totally recommend to come and visit when you’re in the area.
Amazing ... quite, peaceful and fun. Could spend hours looking at the butterflies, listening to the birds, making patterns etc etc etc... it also had a play area for the kiddies..
