We joined the From Cave to Coast Wellington Highlights Tour with Zozo Travel on October 16, 2025, and had an amazing experience. We happened to be the only two guests that day, so it felt like a private tour. Our guide Phil was outstanding - an excellent communicator with deep local knowledge about Wellingtonβs history, nature, and culture. We visited a mix of iconic sights and hidden gems, from scenic coastlines to charming neighborhoods, all at a comfortable pace. The tour was well-organized, relaxing, and gave us a real feel for what makes Wellington special. Weβll definitely book their Martinborough Wine Tour next time weβre back in New Zealand! Highly recommend Zozo Travel to anyone looking for a personalized, high-quality Wellington day tour with a knowledgeable local guide.

What a fantastic day out in Martinborough, hosted by Simon. He was a wealth of knowledge about the area and the vineyards in the area. We did the 5.5 hour tour that visited 3 wineries - Poppies, Moy Hall and Palliser Estate. Personally liked the wine the best at Poppies and Moy Hall. The latter was where we had lunch (extra expense) which was DELICIOUS and a great lookout over the vineyard. Would recommend to anyone visiting Wellington to experience the outer suburbs :) thank you Simon!

A brilliant day with Phil on his all day tour from Wellington NZ. The quick walks at the national parks, the food, the rugged coastlines, the seals, the walk up to the lighthouse, great expert information (without nonstop talking - sone tour guides feel they have to fill every silence) . . did I mention the food . . . beautiful local produce . . don't miss this one.

Had a fantastic afternoon out with Phil on the 3 brewery tour of Wellington. Phil took note of our favourite beers and helped with recommendations along the way. The Garage Project boys gave great insights and knowledge during their tasting, Baylands has a wonderfully huge selection, and Panhead set amongst the awesome Brewtown was just an amazing setup. Would absolutely recommend Phil and Zozo travel for an honest and personal experience.

Athena is the name worth our praises here, providing such good service through out the half day foodie tour, which we had some wonderful time, with the only 3 of us in the tour, she did even offer a discount on an extra wine yard tasting which turns out to be so enjoyable, we had a great day out ! Zozo is the place for you !

Oliver was a great guide! We also had a fun group of people from all over the world in our van. It was a really fun day. The lunch spot we stopped at was an unexpected surprise. There were only a few choices of tapas-style dishes so our expectations might have been a bit low, but the food was exquisite! The presentation was beautiful and everything was super delicious. Everyone in our group commented about how much they liked the food. The "cheese" part of the tour was a bit underwhelming, but everything else was great. Oliver gave us a good variety of different wines for our three tastings and he was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of NZ as well. Recommended!

It was a great ladies day out, our host (Jewish chap) was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. He made an extra effort for one of the other tourists from Australia who had come all this way to visit her great grandmother's birthplace in Greytown. This just made her day and ticked an important piece of history off her bucket list.

Wine & Wild Coast Tour with Phillip the owner was simply one of the best tours we have done! He picked us up right from the Wellington port and we had a 10 hour tour with him seeing a good part of the southern eastern coast of the North Island. We drove through the countryside of New Zealand and visited a winery vineyard and ate at their fabulous restaurant Poppies in Martinborough! It was very very good and the surrounding area was beautiful! We visited the Rimutaka crossing and took a short hike over a swinging bridge to see some birds and nature reserve. We also visited the beautiful Putnanguira Scenic Reserve. We stopped by a cheeseshop, and chocolate shop where we did some sampling and taste testing. Then he drove us to the fur seal colony where we were able to spend time observing the seals in their natural habitat. Onto the Cape Palliser lighthouse to climb all 252 steps to the top! We ended the tour with a very nice dinner at The Royal Hotelβs Brac and Bow in Featherston! All in all it was a great trip which I highly recommend and the van Phillip picked us up in was extremely comfortable and he was very accommodating to stop and let me get any pictures I had wanted to get along the way. This was a very very pretty drive around the southern coast of New Zealand! Thanks Phil for the best Wellington trip for our family!

Iβm really happy with Zozoβs services. I found it is a very responsive operator, and all my doubts prior to the trip to set he pickup details were answered in great timing. This was valuable and helpful to me because I did the tour alone and I felt safe, plus, reinforced that I made a very good decision choosing this company. Phil, our tour guide, is a lovely person and highly knowledgeable about his matter. He made our experience very fun, interesting and unforgettable. PS: I did the half day wine tour, from 10 am to 3 pm. Hotel pick up and drop off. We had great time to enjoy every activity we were doing. Great selection of places to visit. Many thanks! Ceci
