    What a great and relaxed way to see and learn about Wellington and environs. This is a very good product and our guide (Grant) was the perfect host for such a tour. His narrative and knowledge was excellent and he provided just the right amount of information, soliciting questions all along the way. We would highly recommend this tour...great value.
