    아이들이 너무나 행복해했던 자연공원

    크지않은 동물원 느낌정도.하지만 스텝들은 친절했고...중간중간보이는 온천수 연못에 사는 물고기들에게 먹이주는걸 너무나도 좋아했던 네살딸. 먹이는 비록 비린내가 많이났지만...뿌듯했고.매시간마다 안내해주는 스텝의 이야기도 많은도움이 되었다. 키위새도 실제로 보았고...놀이터도 좋았고...숲속 놀이터에서 반나절을 즐긴느낌. 아이들이 있는집이라면 강추.

    레인보우스프링스 좋아요

    키위새를 포함한 여러종류의 새들을 감상할 수 있고 뉴질랜드 환경이 그렇듯 깨끗하고 아름다워요. 또한 아이들이 뛰어놀 수있는 놀이터도 잘 되어있고 빅스플래쉬는 기다림없이 큰 재미를 선사합니다. 옷이 젖을 경우를 대비해 커다란 우비까지 갖춰 놓은 배려에 다시 오고 싶은 마음이 더 커집니다. 게다가 레인보우스프링스 옆에 바로 스카이라인 루지가 있어 돌아오는길에 루지까지 탈 수있어 더 좋았어요.

    자연친화적 동물원 같아요

    새 구경하기에는 좋아요. 키위보려고 갔는데 결국 키위새는 보지 못했네요... 키위새 있는곳에서 도저히 키위새를 찾을수 없었습니다. 그리고 지금은 워터슬라이드도 안해요. 그냥 거의 산책하다 나왔어요. 애기들하고는 가면 좋을것같아요.
