Book your behind-the-scenes tour of New Zealand’s leading interdependent animal welfare sanctuary.

Our 4WD tours are $100 for up to four people, so you can choose whether you’d like a special one-on-one experience or to share the adventure with up to three friends.

Our animals are not on exhibit-they are healing. On this special guided experience, you’ll:

Go behind the scenes into areas not normally open to the public.
Meet incredible rescued animals and hear their survival stories.
Learn how HUHA rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes all species.
Discover how you can be part of the solution.
Meet a diverse range of species from guinea pigs, ducks, geese, turtles to goats, pigs and ponies.

This is your chance to witness compassion in action and to connect deeply with the animals whose lives you help change.

Children: Please note children 8 years and older are welcome to come on this tour but must be accompanied by a guardian who will be asked to sign a waiver form to acknowledge that they will take responsibility for the child whilst on site.

Accessibility information:
Our sanctuary spans 157 acres of beautiful, rugged landscape. To help make this experience more accessible, we offer guided 4WD tours for visitors with mobility challenges. We have accessible toilets on site, and some areas can be reached using a wheelchair. Please note that our vehicles are not currently modified for wheelchair use, so wheelchair users will need to be able to self-transfer into a 4WD.

NZSL interpreters:
If you require an NZSL interpreter, you are very welcome to bring your own interpreter as part of your group of up to four people.

Where are we? Our Sanctuary is based in the Hayward Hills, about 30 minutes north of Wellington.

How to get here: Our sanctuary is positioned at the very top of the world (with gorgeous views of Wellington on a good day). We are situated about 2km up a very steep bumpy, unsealed driveway so please keep that in mind and keep to the 20km/h speed limit as you approach. Our sanctuary is not currently accessible by public transport.

What to bring: Please bring your own snacks, drink bottle, gumboots, sunscreen/ hat and raincoat.

Booking information: Once you have booked we will email all the information you need including directions to get to us.
