Thanks to the park for conserving the precious species of creatures in NZ. A well educated trip and happy to see Kiwi birds and hear about their stories.
The Kiwis and the Kiwi Gent both starred

Wonderful peaceful surroundings in an otherwise bustling town was a welcome reprieve. Staff were super friendly right throughout the park. Special mention for the wonderful young gent presenting the Kiwi presentation. He was knowledgeable, approachable and engaging. Which brings us to the Kiwis themselves. They were so incredible. They were active, they were clearly happy, jumping and eating and showing off. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and was the highlight of our Queenstown sojourn.
Up Close with Beautiful Birds

Beautiful native bird park. The kiwi experience was amazing, the dark kiwi house allows them to do their nocturnal business you can watch them run around and fossick for food. Several of the bird enclosures you can go into and be up close with the birds.
A must go when in Queenstown

A lovely place to visit when at Queenstown. Was my first time down in Queenstown and Kiwi Park definitely didn’t disappoint. A great display of Aotearoa New Zealand’s native wildlife, especially the avian diversity in New Zealand. Managed to get to see a couple of kiwis up close in their kiwi house. There are a couple walk through areas and be sure to catch their show as well.
Well worthwhile to observe the legendary (and funny) kiwi.

I am a 65-year-old New Zealander and had never really seen a kiwi in real life (Apart from a tiny shadow for a second at the Auckland Zoo once). I was thrilled to see the kiwis at Kiwi Park, who obligingly ran about right in front of me for almost the whole time we were at the Kiwi House presentation. I also learned a lot about the challenges of building a population of kiwis and met some other wonderful birds, especially the Kea. The staff there were very friendly, helpful and informative. Thank you!

We had never seen a Kiwi up close before, so this was a first. Lovely well maintained park to wander around. Informative shows. Great location near the Gondola. Absolutely worth a visit.
Very nice.

I am from nz, the price shows $, not sure why they charged in USD amount, very disappointing ☹️. I hope money is worth of going there now, way too much in USD amount.
