Wellington

Wellington, known as New Zealand’s arts and culture capital, offers an unmatched blend of culture, heritage, fine food, and lively arts and entertainment, a vibrant city not to be missed.

 
The world's most southerly capital, located at the southern tip of the North Island, enjoys a beautiful natural setting.
 
Surrounded by hills and a rugged coastline, its houses and suburbs clinging precariously to the hills surrounding the beautiful harbour, it's as appealing to look at as it is interesting to explore.

In this dynamic city you will also discover the country's heritage, which is present everywhere, from the many historic buildings downtown to the Parliament Buildings themselves to “Te Papa”, the national museum.

Small in size, but bursting with attractions, Wellington is an ideal destination any time of year. The city has a reputation for being a little windy but it enjoys more than 2,060 hours of sunshine per year. The warmest months are in summer (January to March).

 Walk the waterfront to experience the amazing harbour or explore and find a quite stop to eat out of the great selection bars and cafés Wellington has to offer.

If you have time, take a day trip to Martinborough, a wine region just a short distance for Wellington and enjoy fresh air, fine wines and delicious food.

Wellington offers a unique mix of experiences few cities could lay claim to. With so many options at your fingertips, you’ll need at least three days to slip into the groove of this amazing place.
