Our second time hiring electric bikes here, had a fantastic afternoon riding out along the coast through Oriental bay and on to The chocolate fish cafe out at Shelly bay.
We got lucky with a beautiful weather. Sailing was mostly smooth. The owner, Tim was friendly and so was his beautiful dog, Shake. I live in Wellington CBD but this is on another level to experience the city. Thank you to Megisti Sailing Charters for providing this affordable, wonderful experience. Highly recommended! ❤️
We had a awesome day out thank you to your fantastic staff.
We did the tour of Gallipoli which is only $3 more than the regular adult entry ! It started at 9.30 which is great to get in before the museum opens at 10! This exhibit was incredible and very moving. We spent 3 hours there and went back the next day as our ticket was a 48 pass.
Awesome service. Thanks
I had never been on a boat, i have no issue going on a boat again. Beautiful day, staff were friendly, we went over to days bay and straight back just for the boat ride took my younger brother who also hasnt been on a boat. Will be bringing the whole family back in December for another ride. Thanks heaps
Fantastic day for a cruise loved it! Crew were awesome dog was gorgeous
One of the best tours any Lord of the Rings fan should take, period! Our tour guide, James, had an unparalleled knowledge of The Lord of the Rings, and it was incredible to see how the trilogy was filmed — right here in Wellington. 10/10 would do the tour again. Highly recommended!
So much fun & great value for money
if u want a chilled cruise and some local facts with an onboard bar this is the crusie for you. very relaxed and shane the dog is a star.
Stunning views, friendly crew, and such a relaxing vibe. Couldn’t recommend it more. Their beloved doggo was also living his best boat life. So good.
The lady well explain how to explorer welly with their lovely e bike … the cafe that she recommended is heavenlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
A great place to hire bikes. Service was great. Bikes perfect. Shame about the headwind but that was the weathers fault ! Will definitely recommend and revisit.
One of the best flat rides I’ve done. Excellent service excellent views and paths
My sister and I love to bike, and this was no exception. Love the boost from the electric thingy for the wind and hills! Got to see so much on our first day on the windy welly, made it such a special memory to treasure.
We have travelled from the South Island and driven up to Wellington. We have seen a lot, interacted with a lot of folk and had a blast. The tour run by the charismatic Hamish was a highlight. His quick wit, knowledge of the LOTR movies, safe driving, situational awareness (notably with wayward mountain bikers) were a joy. Notably his knowledge of Wellington, the surrounds and flora were fantastic. Absolutely incredible trip and would recommend for anyone who wants a deep dive into the LOTR and the Wellington film industry! Great time all round!
We did enjoy this museum. You can learn al lot of the country, Māori people, nature, and lot of things. Take your time and use the same ticket for two days. Faboulus!!
This experience is a must do for any Australian visiting New Zealand. It adds another dimension to the ANZAC story and is a truly emotional and unique journey back in time. This was our second visit and I would go back again next time as there are so many stories…respect!!!
What a difference 30min make for a memorable experience. Love the option for an early bird entry as it allowed us to fully appreciate and immerse ourselves in the exhibit without the crowds. Definitely recommend it!
Our guide Portia was an exceptional guide with in depth knowledge that was shared in a very personal way. A very enriching experience.
Beautiful trip. Many waterfalls and walls of tears. Took us to the great views. Had time enough to take lots of photos.
Second time doing this lovely tour with Tim and Shake and one more time I loved it. It’s a must do activity in Welly.
Awesome trip
Wow we were not disappointed in this trip. Beautiful boat very comfortable. Great host and his dalmatian dog who was so cute. Just an all round exceptional experience, we will book again next time visiting Wellington. Maria and Andy Parker, Hawkes Bay.
I booked this last minute for my boyfriend's Birthday as another plan had fallen through... my boyfriend is a leap year baby so I had to make sure to pull out all the stops! And boy oh boy... this experience did not disappoint. It was spectacular from start to finish. We are a mid-20's couple who are very adventurous (we mountain bike, snow-board, surf-board and run 1/2 marathon's regularly) so we are always looking for a new adventurous experience. This ticked every box. A wonderful and charismatic team, who provide such a high-energy throughout the whole experience. A wonderful and friendly Dalmatian. A beautifully clean and loved vessel. And to top it all off a well equipped bar! It was everything and more we could have wished for. Thank you again guys for providing this experience, we do already recommend it to everybody...but especially once lock-down is over- treat yourself to this wonderful experience! :)
My teenagers and I really enjoyed this cruise. Tim and his dog were both fantastic hosts! Great sense of humour right rom the beginning to the end! Perfect location to be able to board. Located along wellingtons favourite waterfront spots, Surrounded by some great restaurants/ eaterys you will have plenty of time to grab a bite to eat before boarding. It was a perfect day for us, perfect cruise and at such a great price, highly recommended. We will definitely re-book. Thankyou!
The perfect weather for sailing! The boat was beautiful and will definitely be back with friends next time.
Great family day for all, gales blowing super safe live jackets for all and the kids. Happy hosts friendly dog, great views and we managed to see a penguin.
This is the second time on this cruise and we had a fabulous time on board, was pretty windy but that made it even better, sails up we were off. My son enjoyed the experience for his 20th birthday. Thanks for the donut spin. We are coming back
Seeing the harbour from the front of the Megisti was amazing, even on an overcast day. The crew were fun and so welcoming. This cruise is something I will return to do again and again, and I’ll be bringing everyone with me that I can! Thank you for an incredible experience Megisti!
