Twice acclaimed as New Zealand's best visitor attraction, the International Antarctic Centre features an impressive collection of absorbing interactive experiences. The exhilarating hagglund experience showcases the all-terrain vehicle's immense capabilities in realistic surrounds, while the Snow and Ice Experience features a polar room with real snow and ice. The Penguin Encounter allows you the rare chance to see these birds up close, you can experience a sea voyage to Antarctica in the brand new 4D theatre or check out the aquarium; it houses specimens from the Antarctic Ocean floor in McMurdo Sound.
