“This is a fantastic playground, nestled within the botanic Gardens. Not only is there great equipment for children of a range of ages (a number of slides, flying fox, monkey bars, swings and other climbing equipment), there is plenty of shade, tables, and bathrooms! It really ticks all the boxes.”

“Cute wee park , love the kids playground and the garden for the blind has nice booth seating for lunch or a quiet and discreet meeting. Beautiful sweet smelling flowers and water feature and on the other side you can sit and watch cars on the motorway”

“The most amazing city park i have ever seen... You feel like you're in the middle of a national park, 5 minutes walk from a busy street!”

“Outstanding garden with really beautiful flowers. The walkways are clean and easily accessible. Many of the flowers are from the Southern Hemisphere and so for visitors from the rest of the world, it's a really unique experience. Special mention for the bees and birds who aren't really that afraid of humans. A must visit of you love flowers.”

“Always a great experience. It makes me feel like I’m back in a 90’s movie theatre.”

“Wētā Cave is a must-visit in Wellington for anyone interested in Hollywood movies and the magic behind them. The experience offers an incredible behind-the-scenes look at how iconic Hollywood films are brought to life, with detailed props, costumes, models, and displays showcasing the craftsmanship and creativity involved. Seeing the level of detail up close gives you a whole new appreciation for what goes into blockbuster filmmaking. The atmosphere is relaxed yet inspiring, and the staff are passionate and knowledgeable, happily sharing insights and stories from major film productions. It’s an easy and enjoyable stop while exploring Wellington or the Miramar area, and the overall experience feels immersive and well worth the ticket. The store is also a highlight, packed with unique collectibles and memorabilia. If you love Hollywood films or creative storytelling, Wētā Cave is an experience you shouldn’t miss”

“Recently went to the Wellington Museum, first time in a few years. The exhbits were great, very comprehensive in thier information and many of them were quite fun and engaging. The more somber or serious topics were really well presented.”

“My favorite mini golf experience! Such good props and fun shots to take (both golf and drinks). Quality time and effort was spent making this very enjoyable to just exist in. The staff was also fun and very nice. Only sad there was not more holes, I need more!!”

“A large and very scenic park. Great for picnics, a run, dog walkings and walking in the bus”

“We recently had my daughters birthday party at this venue and were so pleased with our experience. The staff we very friendly and accommodating for the couple of hours that we were there, always making sure we were happy and looked after, even offering a cake cutting knife and lighter in case we hadn't taken them along with us. The party room was being used for another party before our one began and when the room was ready for us, it was all completely cleaned and tidy, you wouldn't even know there was a room full of kids, food and cake in there before us. The food came out exactly on time and the kids had an amazing time on the playground with such a variety of activities for all ages. Would definitely recommend and am very thankful my daughter had a great party at this location :)”
