Discover the secret lives of kiwi Ngā Manu is part of the NZ National Captive Kiwi Breeding Programme and as part of this there is a private kiwi enclosure replicating a kiwis’ natural habitat. This unique enclosure is only available to visitors on the Kiwi Night Encounter. Visitors enter the enclosure to find rows of wooden bleaches to sit and wait, there are cushions and rugs for their comfort. The ambience is almost spiritual as they sit in silence with only the sounds of the other native birds in the reserve calling in the distance. Two cheeky Rūrū (owl) show off, flying around and making the visitors laugh as they interact with the guests. Slowly the kiwi emerge, oblivious to the people watching.
The visitors centre at 74 Ngā Manu Reserve Road, Waikanae.
Full refund if cancelled up to 14 days before activity starts.
