Our Promise –
Meet Wellington Your Way

“THE BEST TOUR EVER. Jo was a local expert on everything Wellington and took us everywhere of significance. Great safe driving and she made sure it was personalized to our needs. Other passengers from the ship did not get the same inclusive tour and saw half of what we experienced. She was personable and patient. Definitely book with this company. I highly recommend this tour to everyone!” – Erica, US

“Great personalized experience. We’ve just returned from spending a full day with the lovely Jo. Before we even met, we had great communication via WhatsApp and a great deal of understanding of issues with our arrival.

Jo obviously knows pretty much everything you’d want to know about New Zealand in general and Wellington in particular. Jo customized the trip to make sure we got to see things of interest to us. We also got to just talk about what day-to-day life is like, and it felt like we were forming a little friendship along the way.

If you’re looking for a personalized, intimate experience, I *strongly* recommend booking with uTours. The experience was one I’ll always remember, and it makes me want to come back to Wellington to spend more time here! Thanks, Jo!!!”

“A great day. Private guided tours, among other things, are a combination of vistas, education, history and culture. Often overlooked is the tour guide ):

Suzee is a remarkable human being. Knowledgeable, passionate, intelligent and a wonderful sense of humour. She clearly enjoys what she does and her enthusiasm is evident. We had a wonderful time and the half day plus was filled with beautiful views, dolphins, meat pies, ice cream, beaches, architecture, candy, and art galleries. An eclectic mix. Anything Wellington has to offer is at your disposal on this tour. It does not get any better.”
