Dive head-first into a world of creativity, physical effects, and movie-making magic. Located in Miramar, only five minutes from Wellington Airport and 20 minutes from the Central Business District.

From The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit to Avatar and District 9: learn about the making of props, costumes, and creatures created for your favorite films. Interact with cool stuff from Weta’s creative departments and, if you’re lucky, catch an artist at work on the tour stage.

This includes guided transport from the CBD to Weta & Back. An ideal option if you require return city transport. Your driver will point out iconic landmarks along the way. Discover how imaginary worlds are brought to life during a 90-minute tour, with a guided transfer that will take you ‘There and Back Again’ (please allow up to three hours from pick up to drop off, which also gives you ample time to explore the famous Wētā Cave).
Pick up and drop off are from the Wellington i-SITE visitor center –

Why is this Chuffed Worthy?

Weta Workshop is one of Chuffed’s most popular recipient choices. And we love have having this option which demonstrates and inspires people on how little old New Zealand can deliver on the world stage! So from our point of view – this is an exceptional experience.
