Zealandia by Day - Small Group 2-Hour Eco Wildlife Tour

Danica_G, Mar 2026

Amazing experience and guide!

My friend and I had such an amazing time at Zealandia! Our guide, Ashley, was such a sweet and passionate woman and we absolutely loved her. It was so interesting to learn about how the wildlife of NZ evolved and was destroyed and how volunteers like those who run Zealandia are so dedicated to restoring it. We also got to see some amazing birds! The kaka parrots were out in force and we saw loads, they're not shy of people! We also saw quail, tuis, a wood pigeon, a robin, a shag and my personal favourite, fantails! Also plenty of adorable tuatara lizards! Definitely an experience I would recommend, especially as all your money goes directly to the important conservation work.

Guided Wellington Tour by Electric Bike

Rebekah_C, Mar 2026

E-bike through Wellington sites!

Biking around Wellington, what could be better? I was worried because I am not an experienced cyclist, nor am I in great shape however, the E bike was perfect even on the uphill areas. My guide Stephanie was wonderful. She was full of interesting information about Wellington as she is from here and was funny and very sweet. I truly enjoyed this activity. I would suggest doing this on one of your first days in Wellington so that you can see so many sites and get an idea where everything is. On a clear day at the top of the mountain you can see all of Wellington. At the end we enjoyed an ice team at the pier. This is such an amazing place!

Excellent Martinborough/Wild Coast Day

This was an excellent introduction to the area beyond Wellington. Zozo Tours did a wonderful job of organizing unique experiences: cheese, chocolate, and wine tastings; great lunch and dinner, outstanding drive along the coast. The small number of guests (7 in our group) also made for a fun day.

Great way to spend some hours

Not mom and pop wineries. Ask questions as information is not really given except about the taste. We are interested in growing techniques and soil and our questions were answered. Guide / driver had a great sense of humor. Lunch food at the second winery was pricy but excellent.

Wine tour

This was a wonderful tour! Andrew picked us up right at the ship. We drove through town where he gave us details on all the sights. We made stops along the way through the mountains and got to see where they filmed lord of the rings. We stopped at 3 winery's and had a lovely lunch. We then on the way home stopped at a lovely chocolate store and purchased delicious chocolate! Our final stop was an old church we had a fabulous day! Don't hesitate to book it was one of the best tours we ever had.
