Butterfly Creek

About

A fun day out for everyone! We have dinosaurs, crocodiles, alligators, monkeys, butterflies, farm animals, cafe, functions, shop, playground and a train!

Story

Butterfly Creek is one of Auckland's most exciting and colourful attractions. There is an aquaria where you can spot Nemo and his friends, next comes the wonderful tropical butterfly house where over 500 butterflies surround you. Amongst them you can find turtles, monkeys, birds and dragons. Butterfly Creek hosts two giant salt water crocodiles and alligators. There is also a bugs exhibit where you can see tarantulas up close and insects such as locusts. Buttermilk Farm is very popular at Butterfly Creek as it is a great way for the children to interact with the farm animals - see the goat getting milked, pat a bunny rabbit and giggle at the pigs as they snooze. There is a little train that circles the complex and also a playground for the kids to play in, while adults can enjoy a coffee and lunch from the Papillon Cafe and Bar. Butterfly Creek is a great day out suitable for all months of the year as it is 50% under cover. New to Butterfly Creek is Dinosaur Kingdom - an exciting exhibit where you can explore all sized dinosaurs that lived millions of years ago.

We cater for group visits such as holiday programmes, primary schools, seniors, pre schools, kindergarten, play groups, seniors, coffee groups and families of course.

We provide venue hire for wedding, have conferencing facilities and host great kids birthday parties too!

We provide educational resources on butterflies, bugs and crocodiles when a group visits us.

We also run a behind the scenes - Junior Keeper programme that allows the kids to learn about animals and how to care for them.

Butterfly Creek is a day out visit for everyone!

Nice place for kids and toddlers, train ride was enjoyable. Crocodile show was worth a watch. Friendly staff, spare you 2-4 hours and there is a cafe there for lunch. There is an option for only train ride if you don’t want to explore the whole set.
What an awesome place ! I have always driven past this place as a kid when we use to go to auckand as a kid so I thought lets fill that curiosity and check it out, and I can tell you I was not disappointed, this place is so unique and branches away from your everyday zoo. From the variety of animals and insects to the cleanliness and friendless this place offers is superb... staff were friendly and helpful my son absolutely loved the dinosaurs and the train ride was awesome, they even take you for two loops of the track ! Well worth the money this place and I highly recommend any family or even if your by yourself it doesn't matter, this place will cater to those needs.
Loved going, very friendly staff and accommodating.nnWas able to store bags there as we had our flight the same day.nnFavourite part was watching the saltwater crocodile being fed. Staff were well informed on the animals and put on a great show.nnButterfly creek was super awesome with heaps of animals that looked well kept.nnThe cafe was a bit lack luster with the chips feeling like they were put in an air fryer.
Did the private encounter with the Tamarins. Woo was our Zookeeper for the encounter and was excellent. He was very informative and took great care of us and the monkeys. We really enjoyed feeding them and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in seeing the animals up close.
Had a great family fun day out, perfect place for toddlers and it is also pram friendly. Lots to see and do. Has a playground and an obstacle course for the kids to play on. Can pet and feed the farm animals which is cool and we got to watch the crocs get fed. It's a little expensive but enjoyed that it wasn't chaotic and there was sufficient parking.
