FAQs

When should I arrive? All tours visitors must arrive at the ZEALANDIA Visitor Centre 15 minutes before the tour start time. 
How much walking is involved? Expect to be on your feet for 2.5 hours. The tours venture through the Zealandia bush and tracks will include slopes, gravel, and uneven terrain in places. It is not a strenuous walk but you will need reasonable fitness to join the public tour. If you have any doubt whether the tour is right for you, please get in touch at tours@visitzealandia.com.
What should I wear? Dress to the conditions, with comfortable walking shoes, warm clothing, and a waterproof layer just in case!
What if the weather is bad on the day of my tour? We go out in just about all conditions, so be prepared! In very extreme circumstances we may call off a tour for safety reasons. If this happens to your tour we will let visitors know as soon as possible and do our best to arrange a tour at a later date.

Is breakfast and/or coffee included in the ticket price? Yes! At the end of the tour, recharge with a la carte breakfast and a barista coffee or hot drink at Rātā café as a reward for your early start. On top of this, the ticket price also includes a short tea break in the valley.
Can I book my own private tour?  Absolutely! Just email us and we can arrange for you.
What if I have any mobility or accessibility requirements? Please reach out if you have any health or mobility issues and would like to attend the tour. Some of the tracks used on public tours are not suitable for wheelchair users, mobility scooters or walkers. It may be possible to arrange a private tour instead. On private tours, we are pretty flexible in catering for any special requirement. Please contact tours@visitzealandia.com to see how we can accommodate you. We also have more general accessibility information here.
