Galleries, Museums, Wildlife Sanctuaries, Nature Walks, and Harbour Trips - all can be found in Wellington. No trip to Wellington is complete without a trip to the Museum of New Zealand - Te Papa Tongarewa - where you can explore the nature, art, cultural heritage and history of New Zealand. You can also take a parliament tour, a movie tour, or a trip to the Weta Cave. If you prefer to the outdoors, there's always the cable car trip up the botanical gardens or a walk round Zealandia - the Karori Wildlife Sanctuary Experience, or to red rocks to visit the seal sanctuary. There's plenty to keep you busy in the Capital.

Pampering
Why not treat yourself to a relaxing facial or massage at one of the many spas located around the city. Try Urban Sanctuary or even a bamboo massage at the East Day Spa.
Escape
Not that you will want to leave the city, but should you have a free day, why not take a wine tasting tour to the Wairarapa and explore the vineyards in the beautiful setting of Martinborough and surrounds. Better still add an extra few days on your itinerary, book a boutique bed and breakfast for a romantic getaway and dine at internationally recognised restaurants overlooking the vines.
