Okarito Kiwi Tours
If you like to see a kiwi, go to a birdhouse.
If you like to explore, search and hopefully find, hear and see a kiwi, do this tour, it was amazing!
Ian, the tour guide, has now 16 years of experience with kiwis and he is a great guide that respects the birds.
We saw a female kiwi, Baymond, coming out of her shelter, heard her going through the bushes, with their big feet they are quite noisy, then we saw a beak coming out of the bushes, followed by the kiwi, it crossed the road right in front of us, just about 30 centimeters away from us, stood still for a brief moment and contineud his way in the thick bushes. It was really something beautifull and amazing!

Dennis.......I loved your attitude from the moment you climbed off your bike ! You were a pleasure to take out into the bush and share a little snippet of my life with the kiwi's.
This was day 27 of incubation.....we saw Beaumont emerge from her burrow and then appear on the track at 9.54......We saw her so well, that she had to deviate to go round us and continue her feeding journey.
Thanks for the positive review...Love it !
