The park has a great amazing variety of endemic birds and reptiles, including the super rare kiwis and tuataras. The kiwi show encounter and the conservation show are very interesting, and the animal residents of the park are super cute. Early bird tickets are great value.
Reasonable price. Good environment. Easy to find kiwi in Kiwi encounter zone.
Overpriced
We had a great time at the Kiwi Park Queenstown where we could see kiwis in the dark during the day and also many other New-Zealand birds and reptiles, and a great show.

Amazing
We loved the work that has been done to create a sanctuary for protected birds. The kiwi were beautiful little birds. Bigger than I thought they were. They are doing amazing work.
