Private Wellington to Kapiti tour with flexible stops in Raumati, Paraparaumu and Otaki, plus wildlife reserve visits, food options and coastal views.

Tour Overview

Travel in comfort from Wellington to the Kapiti region on a private tour shaped around your interests. The day is flexible, with a range of stops across the coast, small townships, food spots, and wildlife experiences.

On a clear day, you can see the South Island, and on any day the route passes through a quaint coastal suburb. There are views over the Kapiti Coast and Kapiti Island from above, before leaving the coastal highway to explore the beaches at Raumati and Paraparaumu.

In Otaki township, the tour includes a chance to discover Maori history and culture, including a visit to a Maori church. You can also step back through motoring history with a private collection of local and overseas cars, from the early 1900s through the war years to the present day.

Food and drink options are part of the experience too. Choose from fish and chips with local wine or craft beer, a full menu focused on local produce, chocolate tasting for chocolate lovers, or craft beer tasting.

For wildlife, the reserve visit features native New Zealand birds and lizards, including kiwi, tuatara, and kaka. You can wander through the reserve to view fauna and flora, then watch eels being fed. This is a Kapiti day out designed around what you most want to see and do.
