4.00This was a great introductory tour of Wellington. Marty, our guide, was great, friendly and flexible to what we wanted to do (as we were a very small group). We appreciated the colour commentary and insights of the city. If you are visiting Wellington for the first time, I highly recommend this tour and Marty.

5.00Fantastic 1/2 day tour. Marty our tour guide was excellent and ensured a fabulous experience. He was very knowledgeable and knows all sorts of interesting facts about each place we visited. He even managed to fit in a much needed coffee stop at our request. From the moment I booked the communication and support with pick up and drop off points were excellent. We loved everything about this tour and feel we got a great feel for the city and what it has to offer. We’d definitely recommend this tour.

5.00The tour was everything we could have wished for, and more! Merv, our tour guide was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to make our morning enjoyable. I would thoroughly recommend this tour, particularly if your time in Wellington is limited, or as an introduction to this lovely city.
