Wellington - New Zealand's Capital of Cool

There's no place like Wellington. All this, only 3 hours from Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne.

Winter is just around the corner and Wellington is the place to be. Packed with world class events, award-winning cuisine and great hotel deals, Wellington has something for everyone. It's a tough job being tucked between New Zealand's finest wine regions, but some city's gotta do it. So add a few days to your visit and take a trip to spend some quality time with our neighbours - Marlborough, Wairarapa, and Hawke’s Bay.
