Museum Stop: National Transport and Toy Museum Wanaka

From Summer Times, 9:45 am on 13 January 2025

Our museum stop today is one for young and old and a real trip down memory lane.

The National Transport and Toy Museum Wanaka features 600 old vehicles and 23 aircraft, along with 100,000 toys and a myriad of other items - making it one of the largest private collections of its kind in the world.

It's the result of a lifetime of collecting by the late Gerald Rhodes.

His son Jason speaks with Anna.
