Wellington in 3 hours with a local guide, four photo stops, and a cable car ticket. See Te Papa, Mt Victoria, and more.

“Good orientation tour or, if like us, we’re on limited time as e tour gave you a good overview of the city. Jenna our guide was very informative and stopped at key lookout points to enable us to take photos. Due to an issue with the cable car a trip was not possible but Jenna took us to the top so we still saw the views. Very accommodating with pick up / drop off which made it easy for people who don’t know the area.”

It is very distracting and to some extent an assault on one's senses. However this tour host, which we were fortunate to have, maintained just the right balance between sharing relevant information and/or allowing the group to enjoy the sights with their own observations and thoughts. The initial pick-up was well organized. No reason not to give this tour 5 stars except I am skeptical of the honesty behind too many reviews with 5 stars. And I am sure others are as well.
