This would have to be our favourite place. The birdlife is the closest thing you can get to a predator free NZ. It is extraordinary. Learning the history of the sanctuary enriches the experience. Set… Full review by Trip25740193729

I liked it. Nice walk near city. Lots of birds and a tuatara or two. Quite chilled. Peaceful. Calming. Nice gift shop and friendly staff. Full review by MattoTravel

Zealandia can be done as a self guided walk as you are following well fotmed trails through the nature reserve. If you do it this way the only thing you need to intrrpret is the map / pamphlet they provide. There are guided walks but as far as I am aware these are only conducted in English. I have had a look at the Zealandia website and cannot find any mention of audio guides. You kight get more infotmation by sending them an email.

Hello, did you end up going? It would have been difficult in some places if the rain was heavy. There were light showers when we were there and the tree canopy totally protected the ground. Regards, Jackie
I read there is a free courtesy bus from the cable car out to Zealandia and if that is still the case how long does it take to get there and approx. how long should we allow to visit and get back if we are on a cruise ship. We wanted to go out in the afternoon after a morning tour of the city would we have enough time? Thank you so much for your time and info

THe free bus ride is short no more than 5 to 10 mins and regular to and from Zealandia to the cable car summit. Yes can be done in the afternoon no later than 2 pm bus leaving for Zealandia. If you want to do the full walk in the nature reserve it takes around 50 mins to one hour. If you want to just see the Zealandia museum exhibits 20-30 mins is more than enough.Doing the full walk and museum will around 80 to 90 mins.
What is the best tour to take to see the most birds - day, twilight, or night tour?

You definitely get to see a selection of birds during a day tour, make sure to keep a look out as birds are working away through the bark and what not :) As for seeing a kiwi, I haven't managed to see one there yet...next time. Zealandia is very tranquil too.
