You step out of a private vehicle into a sharp Wellington breeze, the city’s harbor framed by steep ridgelines and the distant flash of Cook Strait. The day unfolds as a series of short, purposeful moves: a guided walk around the Beehive and Parliament precinct, a climb on the heritage cable car to the Botanic Garden, a lunch break with bay views, a shaded bush trail that recalls the LOTR film sites, and a final sweep to the panoramic lookout on Mt Victoria.
