Ko Tane is the South Island’s ONLY Maori Culture Performance and Hangi Dinner & Willowbank is the ONLY place where you can meet New Zealand's Big 5 wildlife

Your evening at Willowbank & Ko Tane will include:
In the village you will be shown the tools and skills of the Maori hunter, his cooking techniques, (your hangi dinner being lifted out of the ground) the games he played to pass away his day and traditional instruments used to communicate with his Gods.
The 45 minute kapahaka performance includes action songs, poi dances, (long and short poi), haka, stick games, weapons displays and the opportunity to learn the poi and haka.
Finally enjoy a four course dinner with hangi cooked mains served by the same performers that entertained you.

Dépaysement
Tres belle experience . Je vous recommande de prendre le tour guidé dans le parc pour entrer dans la cage des keas et apprécier les informations d'une super guide. Pour la partie maorie experience, très bonne immersion, possibilité de participer au spectacle, repas delicieux !! Un seul petit bémol j'aurais aimé faire le salut maoris comme présenté sur la photo .

Sympa mais pas fou
La visite est sympa, le spectacle maori aussi, mais le repas (hangi) n'était vraiment pas terrible...

Good effort, but not impressive
The group was too young to be impressive. Way too many people (tourists) on the experience

Super sympa!
Très sympa! La visite guidée de la partie néo-zélandaise du parc est très intéressante et riche en explications, n’hésitez pas à venir 2h en avance (surtout si vous êtes avec des enfants) pour pouvoirs visiter la totalité du parc (en autonomie). Le spectacle Maorie est très bien et interactif. Le repas est bon, la cuisson est parfaite. Je met juste un bémol au fait que cela soit cuit dans des plats en intox et non plus comme jadis ou comme cela peut encore très fait en nouvelle Calédonie ou Vanuatu.
