Experience a tranquil early morning in the sanctuary, where the songs of tīeke and hihi mark the beginning of a new day.
Your guided tour begins in the early morning, just as the sanctuary’s nocturnal residents retreat to their burrows. As the valley awakens, feel the crisp winter air invigorate your senses while you take in the peaceful surroundings. With the valley all to yourself, enjoy an exclusive and undisturbed experience. Listen to Zealandia's beautiful morning concert as the birds flit about in cheerful chatter.
Your tour group pauses in the forest for a hot cup of kawakawa tea, offering a moment of quiet reflection to reconnect with nature.
After the tour, reward your early start with a delicious breakfast at Rātā Café!
Breakfast includes à la carte breakfast with a barista-made coffee or hot drink at the café, and can be added at a separate cost during the booking process.

What You Might See:
