Wellington Transportation Tips by Bernd_L

Getting TO/AROUND: The ferry line Interislander connects the North- and South-Island of New Zealand. The ferries go from Wellington over the Cook Strait to Picton on South Island. On their way they pass the picturesque Marlborough Sounds.

As Cook Strait is a windy waterway the passages can be quite rough. So be prepared and bring some medicine for seasickness if you tend to suffer from that.

Getting TO/AROUND: From downtown Wellington you can use the cable car to go up the hill to the Botanical Garden. On its way the cable car offers a splendid view over the city and the bay.

The cable car is not only a means of transportation but also a tourist attraction. You shouldn't miss a trip with it.

The downtown station is on Lambton Quai, Wellingtons main shopping street. The Cable Car is used by nearly a million people each year. In the mornings and evenings, it is used by commuters travelling between Kelburn and the city. At other times of the day, it is used by people travelling between the city and the Wellington Botanic Garden, or by students attending Victoria University.
