Things to do in Wellington

Sightseeing in Wellington

Take the Kelburn Cable Car, one of only two tramcars still operating in New Zealand, up the steep hillside that borders Wellingtons Central Business District. From here, visitors can visit the Carter Observatory and the Wellington Botanical Gardens and enjoy spectacular views of the city. For another great view of the city go up Mount Victoria, above Oriental Bay, especially at night where the lights of the city are reflected in the harbor. Wellington's inter-island ferries offer another great way to see the city from the sea, especially at sunset.

Wellington's Beaches

The South Coast is one of Wellington's most beautiful places. Visit the New Zealand fur seal colony or just watch the waves.

Shopping in Wellington

Wellington's central business district is split into four quarters. These reflect the four distinct flavors that make up the city. Each of these quarters can be easily reached on foot from the others. The Lambton Quarter offers concentrated shopping and indulgence, cool and contemporary shopping in the Cuba Quarter, lifestyle and intellectual shopping in the Willis Quarter, and pure entertainment in the Courtenay Quarter. Downtown Wellington has something for everyone.

Don't miss the Museum of New Zealand, Te Papa Tongarewa, located right on the waterfront and one of Wellington's most popular tourist destinations.
