Weta Workshop Tours in Wellington - New Zealand's Biggest Gap Year – Backpacker Guide New Zealand
Day 76: Today we are checking out not one but two Weta Workshop Tours in Wellington to see the behind-the-scenes of The Lord of the Rings and Thunderbirds Are Go!
Yesterday - Day 75 ➜
Tomorrow – Day 77 ➜
30 Tips for Backpacking in New Zealand ➜
-- About this video --
Today we are jumping on a bus from Wellington City Centre in New Zealand and heading over to Miramar, the home of Weta Studios, Weta Cave and the Weta Workshop!
Weta are the props and special effects team behind huge movies and TV shows, most famously The Lord of the Rings and Avatar, so visiting the Weta Workshop is a must for a Lord of the Rings in New Zealand experience. #realmiddleearth
We arrive at the free portion of Weta’s offerings in Miramar, The Weta Cave. At the Weta Cave you can take a look in their mini museum of Lord of the Rings props and figurines. There is also a behind-the-scenes video to explain the work that Weta Studios and Weta Digital do.
For a more in-depth look at Weta’s work, we join a Weta Workshop Tour which takes us to one of their prop rooms and has windows looking into Weta workers creating props for their next movie. The Weta Workshop Tour allows no photography or filming but it’s a great insight into the movie industry.
After our Weta Workshop Tour, we head on one more tour to see how miniature effects are made with the Weta Thunderbirds Are Go tour. Although we don’t know much about the Thunderbirds Are Go! TV show, we are surprised to be amazed by the miniature worlds created by the Weta New Zealand team. We might even go as far as to say that it was our personal favourite Weta Tour of the day!
So what do you think of the Weta Workshop Tours in Wellington? Would you add the Weta Cave or Weta Workshop Tours to your New Zealand bucket list?

Today we are going to the Te Papa Museum in Wellington! Not only is it a great thing to do in Wellington on a rainy day, it’s also a free activity in Wellington.
But first, we arrive at the campervan to hilariously find that it’s trapped by the Sunday Market next to the Te Papa Museum, so we pick up some veggies before heading to the Te Papa Museum in Wellington.
We first check out the “secret” exhibition about the earthquake-proofing of the building before entering the Te Papa Museum.
Inside we are spoiled for choice with the amount of exhibitions, from Maori culture to World War exhibitions to natural history. We almost spend the whole day inside the Te Papa Museum as there is so much to see and do here. There are even interactive displays so it’s an awesome way to learn more about New Zealand.
Te Papa Museum in Wellington is a free thing to do in Wellington city centre. So what do you think of the Te Papa Museum? Is the Te Papa Museum somewhere you would check out in Wellington?

EXPLORING WELLINGTON'S spectacular CABLE CAR RIDE (NEW ZEALAND) ????
SUBSCRIBE!! - Let's go for a ride on Wellington's cable car, a spectacular funicular railway between Lambton Quay, the main shopping street, and Kelburn, a suburb in the hills overlooking the central city, rising 120 m (394 ft) over a length of 612 m (2,008 ft). It is widely recognised as a symbol of Wellington.
Wellington, the capital of New Zealand, sits near the North Island’s southernmost point on the Cook Strait. A compact city, it encompasses a waterfront promenade, sandy beaches, a working harbour and colourful timber houses on surrounding hills. From Lambton Quay, the iconic red Wellington Cable Car heads to the Wellington Botanic Gardens. Strong winds through the Cook Strait give it the nickname Windy Wellington.
New Zealand is a country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean consisting of 2 main islands, both marked by volcanoes and glaciation. Capital Wellington, on the North Island, is home to Te Papa Tongarewa, the expansive national museum. Wellington’s dramatic Mt.

30 Tips for Backpacking in New Zealand ➜
-- About this video --
Already, we’ve had an awesome time in Wellington, New Zealand, from going to the famous Te Papa Museum to seeing wildlife at Zealandia and so much more. However, we have not yet had chance to just explore the city of Wellington and see the sights of Wellington City centre. That’s what we are doing today: going on our own city tour of Wellington.
Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand and has a real reputation for being an artsy city. We certainly see this for ourselves on our own travel Wellington experience as we check out murals, street art and sculptures. In particular, there are hidden poems and art along the Wellington Waterfront.
We also take the time to visit the Capital Market which is full of street food and cheap eats in Wellington. Another great place for coffee in Wellington on our Wellington city tour is Enigma Cafe on Courtenay Place.
From the architecture to the street art, Wellington city is a great place to take a walk and check out the hustle and bustle. For more things to do in Wellington, be sure to check out our Wellington Playlist:
So what do you think of Wellington City? Would you do your own city tour of Wellington city?
