Join the most engaging Essential Free Tour of Wellington to discover the multicultural vibe, history, economics, arts and urban design of this pleasant capital with a local expert guide! While strolling through the city center, you will enjoy the stunning views of the wharf as well as those of Mount Victoria. This mount is such a beautiful background that many scenes from The Lord of the Rings were filmed there. This magical forest can be easily reached through Wellington Cable Car, which is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city and has been operating since 1902. During the tour you might catch sight of the vehicle departing from the central district, offering an unforgettable visual spectacle.

For a better understanding of this capital city, your guide will take you to the New Zealand Parliament. There, you will learn about Wellington’s political role in the country, but also feel surprised by the distinctive architecture of its four buildings. The Parliament House, finished in 1922 and designed in the Edwardian neoclassical architectural style, offers a stunning contrast next to the ultra-modern Beehive, completed in 1977. Not far from this area, the group can find another pair of strikingly different (and still related) buildings: the massive structure of St. Paul's Cathedral, and the tiny wooden St. Paul Anglican Church. The industrial design of the cathedral never leaves visitors indifferent!

Cuba Street will be an interesting place to stop for photos. This is the area where you can taste the best of the country's gastronomy, have a coffee and have a nice chat.
