Overnight Experience Tour on Kapiti Island, located just off the Kapiti Coast, offers a special chance to stay on a protected bird and nature sanctuary. This island is special because it's free from predators, making it a safe home for many native New Zealand birds. You can walk along the island's trails, look up into the trees, and try to spot some of these unique birds.
What to Expect: Your adventure starts with a ferry ride from Paraparaumu Beach. Once on Kapiti Island, a local guide will tell stories about the island's history and the birds that live there. Then, explore places like Rangatira and Waiorua Bay, two key stops on the island. The island is known for being a pest-free sanctuary so people can visit and walk around but not live there.
In the evening, you will enjoy drinks and snacks, followed by a delicious dinner made by a chef. After dinner, go on a guided walk at night to see and hear the island come alive with different sounds and sights. This tour includes the ferry to and from the island, meals (lunch, dinner, and breakfast), and a place to sleep (you can choose a cabin, tent, or room with its own bathroom). This tour does not include hotel pickup or drop-off. It's a chance to see New Zealand wildlife in a unique way, looking for birds like ruru, korora, and Kiwi pukpuku. You will also need Department of Conservation permits to visit the island. It's a great way to experience nature up close!

The experience also includes time for independent exploration, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the island's natural beauty at their own pace. A highlight of the tour is a delicious buffet lunch at The Lodge, prepared by a talented chef. After lunch, the tour concludes with a relaxing ferry ride back to the mainland.
