Kiwi Treasures is a souvenir shop and information centre in Lake Tekapo village, and it also serves as the village's NZ Post centre for internal and overseas postage. The shop's range leans toward New Zealand-made goods, including honey and merino wool products and Lake Tekapo-inspired souvenirs. It is part of Go Tekapo, and its staff help with bookings for tours and farm experiences and give local recommendations. The website also points visitors to the stargazing at Mount John and the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve.
Customers say the staff are welcoming and helpful, and that the gifts cost less than the same kinds of thing in other shops. One reviewer says the choice is a little smaller than in the bigger shops, but the service makes up for it. Stargazing bookings also come up, and one visitor had a booking cancelled and felt it was not handled well. Our pick in Lake Tekapo for gifts made in New Zealand, or for posting a parcel while you are in town.
