What a wonderful surprise
What a beautiful space for our birdlife and for Tuatara Ruruku. Did the small loop track and can’t wait to go back to do some more. The staff were lovely, helpful and welcoming. 5 stars!

Wonderful experience
What an amazing place this sanctuary is! Such a credit to the vision and foresight of a dedicated group of people and it's just fantastic to see the cooperation and hard work that has created a very special place Highly recommended, there's an easy loop walk but easily extended if you would like to explore more or like a more challenging hike

Wonderful
Clive and the staff at the sanctuary were just really caring and kind. Clive recommended the trails I should walk in in which direction and I couldn’t have thanked him more. When I couldn’t find the tuatara, they showed me exactly where he was. The hiking was really nice, quite a lot of uphill but that also went downhill. I thoroughly recommend anyone to visit this wonderful sanctuary.

Great place right on the doorstep
Got a half price ticket from book me and I was not disappointed. Great place to visit, lots of bird life, lovely walks, rivers, animals and friendly staff. Will be back.

Wonderful experience
Went for a trip in early April. Lovely quiet tracks with plenty of Tui and fantails to keep you company and only steps away from Nelson.
