Wellington is not just the political capital of the country but is also at the heart of all New Zealand art & cultural activities. Fringed by a verdant hillside and a majestic harbour known as the Te Whanganui a Tara, the city is a great place for both adventure travellers and those looking for a peaceful place to unwind.

Wellington is famous for its historic structures, which include landmarks like the Beehive and other parliamentary buildings, and Te Papa- the interactive museum.

The Hutt Valley (north of Wellington city), is ideal for outdoor sports enthusiasts. Holiday activities include 4WD trips, mountain biking, golf, native bush walks and fishing. This vivacious city is also home to the performing arts, ballet and symphony orchestra.

Wellington hosts a wide array of cultural events all year round, and offers tourists an impressive selection of cafés, restaurants, boutique shops, theatres, art galleries and affordable hotel accommodation options close to the city centre.
