Take a trip through time and see the evolution of New Zealand’s wildlife brought to life at ZEALANDIA Eco-sanctuary! This is one of New Zealand's premier eco-attractions located only ten minutes drive from central Wellington. At the ZEALANDIA Visitors Centre see the exhibition, where you'll discover New Zealand’s incredible natural history and world-renowned conservation movement showcased in a state-of-the-art indoor exhibition. Then step outside, through the predator-proof fence and into the sanctuary valley, a beautiful 225-hectare (550-acre) eco-sanctuary that offers you the best opportunity to see some of New Zealand’s rarest birds, reptiles and plants in the wild. Your ticket includes entry to both the exhibition and sanctuary valley.
