“These guys know their stuff! Really helpful and on the ball to help wherever they can. A bit more expensive than their competition (sometimes) but I'm more than happy to pay the difference due to their excellent service. They also have a great returns policy. Also the more you buy the greater discount you get, so consider that when comparing retailers. Went there to buy some football boots this time and very happy with the purchase after a lot of patience on their behalf trying on many different options. Please support our local, high quality traders like Shoe Clinic! Definitely recommend.”

“My 7 year old son had a lesson with Tim today. In my son's words 'it was great and very exciting because I stood up on my surf board!'. Thanks so much my son had a huge confidence boost and we will most definitely be booking another session.”

“We chose this dance school for both our daughters and we're very happy with the progress they have made here. The teachers are friendly and supportive, with good work ethics and professionalism. Totally recommend it.”

“Over the years, I’ve tried many gyms, but this one stands out as the best. I really enjoy the 30 minute lunchtime classes - they keep me fit and motivate me to turn up and keep going. The trainers make the sessions both challenging and enjoyable. Highly recommend the classes if you are looking for a bit of motivation or a solid workout! The gym is not overcrowded so you don’t have to wait to use machines like at other gyms which is also great!”

“Hi just adding a review for Pridelands holiday programm Moses and his team are awesome, i have twins (teenagers)that go to their holiday day programms and have done for a few years now. Both boys enjoy being there. Lots of fun activities, burning off all the boredom with much to do there. My boys have ADHD and very much on the go 24/7, Pridelands have been wonderful with them. We recommend Pridelands Holiday Programm.”

“Attended an absolutely amazing end of term play. The activity across the stage was riveting and captivating. One of the best plays i have ever had the privilege of attending. Time flew and the young actors displayed skill beyond their years.”

“Georgia and Jen were spectacular. I needed a college uniform on short notice. Didn't know what was needed for the year my child is attending. A few easy questions later, the team had me sorted! By far the most painless experience with back to school shopping.”

“Dear Team at Dive Wellington + anyone else who may be interested in learning how to (breathe underwater) scuba dive, like I have… I would 100% recommend choosing to learn here with a 5/5 star rating! I’ve recently earned my cert as an open water scuba diver on the 18th March 2025 & this has been one of my favourite learning experiences hands down. The team at Dive Wellington are not only dedicated & passionate, they have a great wealth of knowledge & experience they’re keen to share with others! Depending on your preference in learning, whether it be in a group, with a friend or one on one, each learner can be accommodated. I had the pleasure of learning with Dive Instructor Lene, who made the education around what I was taught, fun! I almost didn’t want the training to end it was that good & I can’t wait to dive beside you in the future. But wait… Acknowledgment deserves to be given to the shop owners/operators Paula & Dave where I would like to give them both huge thanks for helping me achieve my goal of certification.

“We highly recommend Louis as a music teacher! He taught our daughter guitar and our other daughter keyboard for over three years, and we couldn't be happier with their progress. Louis is patient, encouraging, and passionate about music, making lessons both fun and engaging. We also really enjoyed dealing with Goodtime Music Academy - the school has been fantastic to work with :)”

“Juan’s a g! Go get a coffee from him. Such a rad new space. Solid kai, solid coffee and solid vibes”

“Only place I was able to escape the kids even though the kids were with me lol Found me a pinball machine and owned every second of game time. I loved it, my kids loved it, my hubby loved it. Couldn't believe we had a great 1hr of kid fun. Had great special on for game credit, otherwise we'd never have spent money there.”

“Shout out to our planetarium guide at the 8:30 show last night (Wednesday Dec 3). Greeted us when we arrived. Shared his genuine enthusiasm for the stars and the mission of Space Place. The exhibits space is small/medium, but the quality was quite high and captures the teenagers with us (no small feat!) with the right level of engagement and knowledge share. You can easily spend a couple hours with the planetarium show. I live in Los Angeles and while Griffith Observatory is quite famous, the exhibit quality for kids, teens and adults is superior if you take the time to read the material and enjoy the video/interactive set ups.”

“The Maori Sidesteps were wonderful. Great music, great comedy and some important messages to top it off.”

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

“A wonderful theatre experience. The building and it's decor are breathtaking. The staff were friendly and helpful. The show was excellent. It was an unplanned night out but what a night!”

“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”

“Great indoor sporting facility that can be set up for a variety of games. When I was there, there were 12 Volleyball courts on 1 side and a number of futsal courts on the other. Offices and meeting rooms are upstairs and the open passage way that runs the length of the building is a great place for taking video and photos to give an overview of the games.”

“The Island Bay Marine Education Centre, also known as "The Bait House", is an interactive marine experience based in Island Bay on Wellington's south coast. As well as there being lots of different sea creatures on display (including a couple of octupuses, sea horses, crayfish, turtles, a grumpy blue cod to name a few) you can also handle starfish, sea cucumbers, sea anemones, crabs and other sea life found un the touch pools. There is far more inside than you would expect from the outside and the volunteers whi wirk there are very friendly and helpful. It is really reasonably priced ($5 for adults, $2 per child) and we were all entertained for ages. Really good fun and educational too. Definitely worth checking out with the family.”

“Legendary place, good architectural gift on Wellington. It's a classic and iconic multifunction building on lower Cuba .”
