Bookme ReviewThe National Kiwi Centre - EntryPosted by tonyc5 from New Zealand on 21 Nov 2021

  • tonyc5 said... like many tourism businesses, these folks are suffering from the covid restrictions. Some of the displays are a little tired looking, no doubt due to the severe drop in income over the past couple of years. I found the staff friendly and cheerful, happy to chat and share their knowledge. Do be there for feeding time, the eels are amazing and know when it is feeding time! It was fun to feed the eels. They have two kiwis, and strict no photography rule means these guys happily get close to the glass for us to view. It is great that some of their food is buried for them to find, to prepare for them to be released. The kids will also enjoy the catch and release pond with the koura/crawlers. Gift shop is well stocked and reasonably priced.
