Tours

We can pick you up directly from your hotel, the cruise terminal, or even the airport as part of your tour package. Wherever you’re arriving from, we make the start of your Wellington experience easy and stress-free.

Free Airport Pickup for Private Tour Guests

If you book your private tour directly through this website, we’ll include a complimentary airport transfer to your hotel — a simple, stress-free start to your time in Wellington.

Complimentary airport transfer applies to all private tour bookings made through this website. Valid for transfers to any hotel within 8 km of Wellington CBD. Additional passengers not included in the tour may be transferred for $30 per person.

We collect guests from hotels, Airbnbs, and the cruise ship terminal. For cruise passengers, we’ll meet you at the terminal with a sign at your designated time. Just let us know where you’re staying when you book.

Yes — absolutely. Just let us know your dietary needs when you book, and we’ll take care of the rest. We work closely with a range of trusted Wellington restaurants and can cater to all dietary requirements, including kosher, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, allergy-sensitive, and more. Your meal will always be planned thoughtfully to match your preferences and ensure a stress-free, enjoyable experience.

Private tours are fully customised. Tell us your interests – whether that’s wine, scenic views, film locations, or a bit of everything — and we’ll shape the day around what matters to you. Shared tours follow a set itinerary but still offer flexibility where possible.

We operate a modern, well-maintained fleet designed to match your group’s size, comfort, and style. All vehicles are clean, air-conditioned, and driven by experienced local guides who know Wellington’s roads inside out.

Our fleet includes:

• Luxury cars — ideal for couples or guests wanting a premium private experience
• 6‑seater mini‑vans — perfect for small groups and families
• 11‑seater vans — great for slightly larger groups while keeping the experience personal
• Mini‑buses and full-size buses — available for corporate groups, cruise excursions, and large private bookings

Whether you’re travelling solo, with family, or as part of a larger group, we’ll select the right vehicle to ensure a smooth, comfortable, and relaxed journey from start to finish.

You can combine different tour types, and the flexibility is one of the biggest advantages of booking a private experience. Guests often mix themes — wine tasting in the morning, Lord of the Rings film locations in the afternoon, or a city highlights tour blended with culinary stops. The itinerary is shaped entirely around what you want to see, and we adjust timing, pacing, and routes to ensure it fits smoothly.

Private touring also opens up combinations that aren’t possible on shared tours, such as pairing Martinborough wineries with coastal viewpoints, or adding cultural stops like Old St Paul’s or the Government Building to a film-focused day. The key is telling us what you’d love to include so we can design a day that feels seamless rather than rushed.

A helpful next step is sharing which two or three experiences you’d most like to combine so we can shape a sample itinerary around them.

It’s simple! When you disembark, please do not board the ship’s shuttle. Kosher Tours has a dedicated meeting area at the Port of Wellington, and one of our friendly guides will greet you as you come down the gangway. Just look out for our Kosher Tours sign—we’ll find you.

The ship’s shuttle will take you to a general drop-off point in the city. By meeting us directly at the port, you skip the crowds, avoid the wait and get straight into your private Kosher Tours experience without any fuss.

Don’t worry—our guides will be clearly visible at our designated meeting point at the port. If you can’t locate your guide, please call or message us at +64 027 5858382, and we will come straight to you.

Simply confirm your booking with us before your ship arrives in Wellington, and we’ll take care of everything else. We’ll have your guide ready and waiting.
