 Tours for afficionados |
6 Jarvie Grove Churton Park Wellington 6004 New Zealand +64 4 801 6900 http://www.dynamictours.co.nz paul@dynamictours.co.nz |
Dynamic is locally owned and operated by self-professed Wellington afficionados. Their tailored small groups' tours are aimed at the corporate client but their tour designs will appeal equally to visitors and locals seeking something a little different. Dynamic are specialists in the exceptional and their tours have been known to take in everything from a mountain top dinner party to a romantic rendezvous for two atop one of Wellington's highest office towers. Your imagination is the limit! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Explorers' delight |
Truscott Avenue Johnsonville Wellington 6004 New Zealand |
Through Johnsonville Park, this 35-minute easy walk is the end part of the Northern Walkway and provides interesting challenges for explorers. Walk through native bush, explore the tunnel hewn into the solid rock and pass the now disused concrete water reservoir. Finish the walk with a picnic in one of the many grassy areas at Truscott park. The walk can be done on its own by entering at Truscott Avenue or as part of a longer walk from Wellington.

 Nature reserve and playground |
Woodmancote Road Khandallah Wellington 6004 New Zealand +64 4 802 4860 (Visitor Information Centre) http://www.nzine.co.nz/views/k... |
A 10-minute drive from central Wellington or a 15-minute train ride will have you climbing through bush tracks to the Mt Kaukau lookout. For the less energetic in the group, picnic in the reserve where there is room for a game of cricket or frisbee and a play area for children. On really hot days pamper yourself in the open-air (non-heated) swimming pool. Hire a barbecue and stay for dinner. This is a great spot for an all day outing. Admission: Free.
