Zealandia

The Karori Sanctuary Experience

Tucked awayin a forest-clad valley just five minutes from central Wellington, ZEALANDIA provides an opportunity to see some of New Zealand's rarest native wildlife in its natural enviroment. Completely cage-free, ZEALANDIA is surrounded by a mammal-proof fence, creating a world-first coonservation safe haven. Tour provide encounters with birds and reptiles normally just found on offshore islands, and a chance to learn about a unique vision to turn back the clock to a time before humans arrived. Day tours include a cruise across the lower lake and a chance to look for New Zealand's 'living dinosaur', the tuatara. For an unforgettable experience, take the two-hour tour. When darkness has settled, your guide will start looking New Zealand's national mascot-the kiwi. Over 100 kiwi call this valley home, so there's a good chance of spotting one.
