Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Bex11 contributionsHad to most wonderful day visiting scupltureum. Can not find any faults with my experience at the attraction today. We were first greeted by Karen who helped us sort our tickets, explained the layout of the place and gave us a brief history of it. Karen was professional, friendly and engaging. Linda was also extremely helpful and was another very passionate member of the team.
The sculptures themselves were fab and the art galleries were great! There is no time limits either so we cruised our way around and took loads of pictures. By the end I felt so inspired by both the art and the sense of community that the staff had created.Written 14 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ellemay 🍹🐠🐳Sydney, Australia47,261 contributionsIf visiting Matakana village on the weekend then visiting the farmers village is certainly worth the time to explore. It’s mostly houses food stalls selling local products. Parking can be problematic.Written 4 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mr EatsAuckland Central, New Zealand98 contributionsGreat morning out with the family- cool markets - tasty food! Good vibes - kids playground is a bit tired and needs some love but was still enjoyed.
Food truck food was good but expensive for what you got -$10 for a mussel fritter is wild - doughnuts and baked goods were excellent 👌🏽Written 9 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

As always, everything was delicious and well-presented, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the grounds around were tended with obvious care making our afternoon a most enjoyable one! Well worth the hours drive from Auckland.Written 26 August 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- TURNERONapier, New Zealand42 contributionsWe have visited this memorial quite a few times over the years. Quite small but always well kept. A quiet place for reflection. Couldn’t get to the memorial his time around due to covid19, but will return here once the pandemic is all over. Lest we forget.Written 26 April 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
