About us

Ka Rawe Tours is a family-owned Wellington tour company, founded by born-and-bred locals Nathan and Hilary.

We combine deep local knowledge, 25+ years of hosting experience and a genuine love for Te Whanganui-a-Tara.

You'll find me (Nathan) at the heart of the business whilst Hilary works long & hard in the Government sector. When we're not working, you're likely to find us taxiing one of our 3 children to sports, work or school! 
 

We enjoy showing off our local region & with my 25 years of hosting experience (in a variety of roles) we thought, what better way to spend a day than doing so with good people & showing them a good time!

Our tours are designed to help you experience more than Wellington’s best-known sights. Depending on the tour you choose, you might explore local history, landmarks, film locations, government, Māori stories and culture, regional food and wine — always with a knowledgeable local host alongside you.
 

We’re passionate about creating relaxed, personal experiences that help visitors understand the places they’re seeing, rather than simply ticking them off a list.
 

As a Qualmark Silver-certified tourism business, we’re also proud to be recognised as a quality New Zealand tourism operator.
 

Feel free to get in touch, we can't wait to hear from you.

Nga mihi nui.

Nathan & Hilary.

Nathan did a remarkable job sharing his passion, stories and knowledge
of Wellington. He was so thorough and engaging with our group.
I left feeling I had a solid understanding of the highlights of Wellington.
Well worth the cost especially compared to others tours I have experienced.

Nathan really brought it all to life! Great job!
