The
city of Hamilton is bisected by the mighty Waikato River, which is best appreciated from the deck of a classic paddle steamer.
While the trees and riverbank suburbs glide by, you can learn about the city’s history and special attractions. At Hamilton
Gardens there are themed displays of trees, flowers and exotic plants to enjoy at any time of the year. Other city highlights
include the Waikato Museum of Contemporary Art and History and the zoo, which provides native birds with enormous freedom
in a walk-through free flight aviary.
