Orana Wildlife Park

Been here so many times! Loved it every single time. Slightly costly to get in but defiantly worth it.

Great place to visit for a family day out! There are a range of different animals on display, including many african animals. There is a feeding programme that runs throughout the day, allowing you to see the animals a bit closer. There is a farmyard section which is a great hit with the kids. There is also an awesome playground (including a trampoline), and a yummy cafe that sells great little "lunch box packs" for the kids. There park is quite large, but there is a shuttle bus that travels around the park if you feel like giving your legs a rest. The annual pass is well worth investing in.

Love their newest attractions. The gorilla area is fantastic. A wonderful family day out. Wish they had more vehicles on though as it was always full and hard to catch a ride.

A large wildlife park that features animals from asia, africa, america etc. You can book a lion or lemur encounter experience. We are lucky to have this park in the south island!
Located at mcleans island near airport area.

Pretty impressed with the range of animals and cleanliness of the cages. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes as the park is spread out. Restaurant coffee average and food descent, I was disappointed at the pricing of food as it's above the norm for chch. That said though an enjoyable couple hours out.
