We had looked forward to our trip to Zealandia for a long time. Coming from the UK, the big outburst of birdsong in the Spring is in the early morning, the dawn chorus. It was a different experience getting a New Zealand evening chorus. Our guides were very informative and it was great to see some animals that they got really excited about. We saw 3 Kiwis and several Tuatara. The use of radio headsets helped the experience in that our guide could talk to us all while keeping her voice at a low level, to avoid disturbing the animals.

Amazing experience at this place. We came for their night time tour to see some kiwis in person, but unfortunately we never saw any since they are in their natural habitat. We did hear some though! We learned a lot about all the other native plants and animals of New Zealand and saw lots of tuataras! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and super nice. They walked us around the preserve and give you little flashlights to help you see. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Wellington.

This is an absolute must do experience in Wellington! The guides are highly knowledgeable and do their best to look for NZ native flora and fauna. We were especially lucky to see a kiwi!

It was very fun and I was happy. I saw kiwi, meaning that Zealandia had not scammed me and I was getting what I paid for which makes me happy.

We did the night tour and can highly recommend it to everyone! You immediately notice how much passion has gone into this conservation project, which gives the local wildlife a place to thrive again. A big thank you to our guide Oliver, who provided us with so much interesting information about the flora and fauna throughout the tour. And to his two spotters, thanks to whom we saw several Kiwis, Tuataras, Wētās, Glow worms and so much more! An absolute must do for every nature lover.

We went on a rainy night tour and had a great time. The tour guide was so knowledgeable. We saw a lot of pickle slugs and tuatara. We were also very fortunate to see two Pepeketua. We heard a lot of kiwi and were very lucky to see one after a couple near misses. Would definitely recommend this tour to everyone.

Lovely nighttime experience. Autumn was a great guide and Clare is the kiwi whisperer - she found 5 kiwis. Magical place doing great work.
