Tour Groups

The ideal venue and the perfect day out for your probus and rotary club, seniors group, retirement village, rest home - or any special interest group. Our venue is wheelchair friendly and is almost entirely under-cover. We offer some great new mid-week packages including real value for money refreshment options.

We are UNDERCOVER so don't let the weather put you off.

The Tropical Butterfly House is temperature controlled at approximately 28 degrees Celcius, 365 days per year - the perfect all-weather attraction. Our butterfly house hosts over 700 brilliantly coloured free-flying tropical butterflies as well as fish, turtles and birds.

The Aquaria room houses New Zealand`s largest tropical fresh-water tank and a highly impressive tropical marine tank - complete with brilliantly coloured fishes and coral - as well as a large sea horse tank and a static exhibit of weird and wonderful insects from around the world. Built over and around a working wetland, Butterfly Creek is set in 5.5 acres of picturesque landscape and also includes Buttermilk Farm interactive farmyard and The Red Admiral Express Train - which circulates twice around the wetland, over two bridges and through a tunnel.
