As the capital, Wellington tells a different story to other cities in New Zealand.<\/p>\n
On this short break, we\u2019ll discover our political heart, starting with a private tour of the fascinating He Tohu exhibition, showcasing the foundation documents of New Zealand \u2013 including the original Declaration of Independence (1835), the original Treaty of Waitangi (1840) and the Suffragette Petition (1893). A public tour of Parliament and guided tour of the grounds will also be enjoyed.<\/p>\n
The private \u2018behind the scenes\u2019 tour at Te Papa will focus on significant taonga (treasures) housed in the archives of our national museum. This is a rare opportunity that few New Zealanders ever get to enjoy.<\/p>\n
