SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY HAS EMERGED!

Discovery World Tropical Forest is Dunedin's HOTTEST ATTRACTION

A lush, living, tropical environment, the Tropical Forest brings visitors face to face with some of nature’s most beautiful butterflies. Hundreds of these enchanting creatures roam free – some even stopping (on you) to say hello! Visitors will experience a hot and steamy rainforest from above and below, encountering an amazing array of flora and fauna within.

Featuring around 1,000 imported tropical butterflies, the Tropical Forest is also home to live tarantulas, turtles, finches and other hot-weather-happy inhabitants. A gardener’s paradise, the rainforest includes wide variety of lush tropical plants including orchids, bromeliads, bananas, coffee, cardamom, passionfruit and more!

Discovery World Tropical Forest is the only three level live butterfly experience in Australasia, allowing visitors to experience it from above, through the centre (via an amazing glass swing bridge) and at the forest floor. Hot (around 30 degrees) and humid (around 80% humidity), the Tropical Forest is guaranteed to be the hottest place in town!

For a truly uplifting experience, head to an eternal summer at the Otago Museum - see the sights, hear the sounds, and feel the heat and humidity of the Tropical Forest! Already a three time national Tourism Award Winner, this outstanding new experience will see one of the world’s best museums soar to new heights.
