We had such a great time at the National Kiwi Centre! It was the only place where we were able to get really up close to two male kiwis, and we were lucky enough to see them show off their masculinity with a little standoff — such a rare and fascinating sight. We also loved the hands-on experience of fishing for native freshwater koura. You can’t take them home, but it was awesome to see them alive and learn more about them. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot to visit, especially when the weather isn’t great outside. The hosts were also friendly and welcoming.
