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.

    Interesting kiwi and glacier centre located in the heart of Franz Joseph township. The centre was well done and quite interesting, though I felt it was expensive for what it was.

    Nice center with very helpful staff. Ample free parking in the area. Our helicopter tour left from here. They also have a number of other activities that you can book. Good size souvenir shop and cafe. We grabbed a bagel, Nutella cheesecake, juice and coffee for breakfast prior to our tour. At the conclusion of the tour, we ordered a ham and cheese toastie and chicken wrap that we ate for lunch on the way back to Greymouth. Food was good but cheesecake was exceptional.

    The iew of Franz Josef glacier from the pews would make a service very distracting, but also calming.

    Wonderful private hot tubs. We reserved a hot tub after we had done quad riding during the day. It really help relaxed all those muscles. We loved the wood burning concept to heat the tubs. They are so clean and every tub is private with its own changing area.

    A really enjoyable few hours. The host Jan, is very knowledgeable and helpful. She’s also got a great sense of humour.
    Pick your own piece of jade and under the watchful gaze of Jan make something to take home . I didn’t think it was ‘my bag’, my wife was keen to go. However, I enjoyed it.

    This movie plays every hour and is a good orientation to the Glaciers. It also makes a nice rainy day activity. The cinema is on the main street and seats are comfortable.
