Great value

Interesting guided tour, and then you’re free to explore the museum at your own pace afterwards - and we got the tickets on here for cheaper than general admission to the museum, so it was brilliant value!

Must do

Started our NZ trip with a visit at Te Papa on day 1, tour was very informative and varied, kept our 10yo engaged and then went to revisit museum areas afterwards.
