See native Kiwi, cheeky Kea, Tuatara and the very rare Takahe - and much much more.
We think Willowbank's pretty awesome too. Thanks for visiting us recently!
Thank you! We're so happy to hear you had a fun experience!
We took our 3 year old granddaughter to Willowbank and had a wonderful time. Well-signposted, safe pathways meant for easy wandering. It's so good for children to be able to get close to animals. Though feeding the ducks got a bit close for comfort at times!! But this older kiwi had the delight of seeing 2 real kiwis at close quarters once noisy granddaughter had given up & moved on!! I had no idea there was such a variety of animals there. Fascinating for all age groups. The bird-life is amazing and not just our wonderful 'top 5.' Our visit was worth every penny! :-)
Even at a reduced cost $46 is way too much for the fun/enjoyment of willowbank. We only could arrive at 3 and by 5 we'd done everything and felt very underwhelmed

Endroit agréable
J'ai passé un bon moment dans la réserve, beaucoup d'animaux et des interactions possibles avec eux (sachets de nourriture à la vente au départ du circuit). Je suis venue pour voir les kiwi et j'ai pu en voir deux, je ne suis pas déçue.
