Holidays To Wellington

Wellington holidays promise the perfect balance between cafe culture, retail therapy and some jaw-dropping views.

Extending off on the southern end of New Zealand’s North Island, it is a top choice for solo travellers, couples and fun filled family excursions alike. 

Visitors curious about architecture should make their way to the parliament building referred to fondly by locals as ‘The Beehive’. Its unique swirling exterior is a sight to behold, and it’s located just five minutes away from Te Papa – the capital city’s sought-after interactive museum. The museum is home to hundreds of masterpieces, as well as a myriad of botanical and zoological collections to stimulate all of the senses.

Be sure to sample some of the country’s most delicious, full-bodied wines while following the New Zealand Wine Trail, which takes you through its top wine-producing regions. For another adventure trail, visit Peter Jackson’s Weta Workshop and the Weta Cave, which promises an opportunity to go on a Middle Earth adventure all of your own. The set of Lord of the Rings is a must for any fans. Whether you’re savouring the beauty of Mother Nature, or exploring the many man-made delights the bustling city has to offer, your holiday in Wellington will cover all bases.
