We joined the From Cave to Coast Wellington Highlights Tour with Zozo Travel on October 16, 2025, and had an amazing experience. We happened to be the only two guests that day, so it felt like a private tour. Our guide Phil was outstanding - an excellent communicator with deep local knowledge about Wellington’s history, nature, and culture. We visited a mix of iconic sights and hidden gems, from scenic coastlines to charming neighborhoods, all at a comfortable pace. The tour was well-organized, relaxing, and gave us a real feel for what makes Wellington special. We’ll definitely book their Martinborough Wine Tour next time we’re back in New Zealand! Highly recommend Zozo Travel to anyone looking for a personalized, high-quality Wellington day tour with a knowledgeable local guide.

What a fantastic day out in Martinborough, hosted by Simon. He was a wealth of knowledge about the area and the vineyards in the area. We did the 5.5 hour tour that visited 3 wineries - Poppies, Moy Hall and Palliser Estate. Personally liked the wine the best at Poppies and Moy Hall. The latter was where we had lunch (extra expense) which was DELICIOUS and a great lookout over the vineyard. Would recommend to anyone visiting Wellington to experience the outer suburbs :) thank you Simon!

A brilliant day with Phil on his all day tour from Wellington NZ. The quick walks at the national parks, the food, the rugged coastlines, the seals, the walk up to the lighthouse, great expert information (without nonstop talking - sone tour guides feel they have to fill every silence) . . did I mention the food . . . beautiful local produce . . don't miss this one.

Had a fantastic afternoon out with Phil on the 3 brewery tour of Wellington. Phil took note of our favourite beers and helped with recommendations along the way. The Garage Project boys gave great insights and knowledge during their tasting, Baylands has a wonderfully huge selection, and Panhead set amongst the awesome Brewtown was just an amazing setup. Would absolutely recommend Phil and Zozo travel for an honest and personal experience.

Athena is the name worth our praises here, providing such good service through out the half day foodie tour, which we had some wonderful time, with the only 3 of us in the tour, she did even offer a discount on an extra wine yard tasting which turns out to be so enjoyable, we had a great day out ! Zozo is the place for you !
