I can't say enough great things about this organization and this tour. I am living in Wellington for five months and got a family year's pass so have been to the sanctuary quite a few times during the day. The trails are wonderful, filled with interesting information. My family is leaving for home tomorrow so we decided to take one last try at seeing a kiwi and did the night tour. It was amazing! The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, we saw so many interesting creatures - insects (3 kinds of weta, slugs, glow worms), a rare frog, nocturnal ducks, shags, and a kiwi! I might need to do this tour again before I leave the country. The price of the tour goes to support the remarkable ecological restoration and preservation Zealandia does, too, so it is doubly worth it.
