Wellington Where to find us

Where to find us

Wellington is ideally located in the middle of New Zealand, providing easy access in and out for those who fly, drive, train or even ferry here. As New Zealand’s capital, the city acts as a transport hub and is an easy one-hour flight from anywhere in the country, and just a short flight away from major Australian cities. Once here, Wellington is a friendly and walkable city that is easy to get around.
