Testimonials

“Butterfly Creek took care of my wheelchair-bound husband last weekend with such dignity, respect and consideration. He was treated so well throughout the whole complex. Very wheelchair-friendly place. Thanks Butterfly Creek for making our day!” – Katherine

“This place is seriously one of the best places to take kids in Auckland. There’s such a great variety of attractions- my kids never get bored and love the interaction they get here. Plus the food options are just as varied (including healthy choices – loving that!). Thanks so much guys for doing a great job entertaining my kids, it’s places like this that ensure my sanity!” – Carrie

“The Butterfly house is simply amazing and to have the butterflies just flying around and landing on you was beyond words.” – Yaginaki

“Loved it. A great family outing. Kids had lots of fun. Must visit when in Auckland.” – Karan

“Always have an amazing time at Butterfly Creek…my son always has a blast when he’s here an never gets tired of any of the attractions..favourite part was the farm. Love the food too!! Thanks heaps” – Pugz

“Dinosaur kingdom was awesome and if i was a child it would have seemed so real to me (actually i felt like a child in the surroundings). It was very realistic with some dinosaurs moving and making noise, a lot were hiding under and by trees which made it exciting as to what you were going to see next, the variety of dinosaurs were unlimited, a lot of places to take great pictures with or without children in them, the area was in impeccable condition as if it was built yesterday.” – Mon

“Animal farm was great – totally interactive and hands on which all kids love, especially the feeding of the outside animals.” – Julie

“The farm yard animals were so cute! My daughter enjoyed having her first cuddle with a baby rabbit, petting a baby lamb through the fence and being followed by the very friendly chickens that weren’t in pens. The goat enclosure was amazing!” – Storm

“The kids loved getting the opportunity to get up close and personal with many animals and critters that they wouldn’t ordinarily see at another facility in NZ (especially the dinosaurs!!)” – TB

“Took our kids 4 and 6 to this place. They really did enjoy walking through the butterflies, one landed on nearly every person we saw inside.” – Jared
