4.00Athena our guide was wonderful and made sure we saw the beauty of Wellington. We stopped at the harbor and got some photos and then headed to mt. Victoria which provided us with hilltop views of the harbor. From there we headed to weta which is a production company and has some goblin figures from the hobbit that you can get photos with which was a lot of fun. We then stopped and had a great lunch at a cafe. The calamari was delicious. After lunch we drove along the coast admiring the views. Back in town we took the cable car to the top of the hill for more scenic views and then headed to a lovely Botanical garden to see the roses. We ended the trip visiting city sights like parliament and a beautiful church. It was a full day and everyone had a great time.
Awesome trip

5.00Great day today with Steve who took us all around the harbour of Wellington. Super viewing points for great photo opportunities of the city & Cook Straits. As a born & bred Wellington dweller it was great to hear about Wellington's history,wildlife & daily life. Although we did not stop for lunch at Chocolate Fish Restaurant we had super lunch in another local restaurant. Very delicious. Took cable car to top & walked back down through botanical gardens where Steve was waiting for us. Very accommodating and numerous guide. Thank you

5.00A lovely way to see highlights of Wellington in a privite care with fantastic guide Athina. Athina was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of background and history of Wellington while viewing the sites. Stopped off for a wonderful cafe called Chocolate Fish and enjoyed an excellent meal which was included in the tour price. I can thoroughly recommend this short (5hrs) tour.
