Description

Explore the best of Wellington on this fully guided 5-hour tour. After being picked up from your hotel or designated meeting point, you’ll travel along the vibrant Wellington Waterfront and up to the Mt. Victoria Lookout, where you can take in stunning 360-degree views of the city and its picturesque harbour. Journey along the scenic coastal drive around Oriental Bay and Evans Bay, with a brief stop at the iconic Windy Wellington sign. Then, arrive at the famous Weta Cave Shop – the hub of Weta Studio Tours. More than just a retail store, it’s a cavern of creativity where you can snap selfies with life-sized sculptures, wander through the mini-museum, and watch an exclusive behind-the-scenes documentary. Continue on to scenic Shelly Bay and around the Miramar Peninsula, before enjoying lunch at a seaside café or restaurant. Pause for a moment of remembrance at the Wahine Memorial Park, then explore the dramatic south Wellington coast, including Taputeranga Marine Reserve and Te Kopahou Reserve Visitor Centre. As the tour returns to the city, you’ll have the option to stop at central Wellington highlights such as the Cable Car, National War Memorial, Brooklyn Wind Turbine, or Old St Paul’s Cathedral, before your final drop-off.
