Our Tiaki Promise

Tiaki means to care for people and place. The Tiaki Promise is a commitment to care for New Zealand, for now and for future generations, looking after this incredible part of the world. We do this by inspiring Kiwis to protect their land, and for tourists to become guardians of the place they visit. This instils a sense of responsibility within to commit to good behaviour.

Thoroughly recommend

We booked a half day tour and enjoyed a lovely Sunday morning with Mitch. He was friendly and knowledgeable, with nice mix of LOTR, Weta and local information. We would definitely use this company again if we find ourselves in Wellington.

Excellent LOTR Tour

Lester, was extremely knowledgeable about the filming locations and was able to offer in depth detail about iconic scenes that I had never heard before. If you are LOTR fan this is a must do in Wellington!

Highly Recommended

What an excellent tour. Our driver/guide was full of interesting information about Wellington and NZ in general. The tour took in all the key locations many of which we would not have seen by ourselves - the views from the top of the hill were fabulous.
