Kapiti Coast private tours offer a personalised and relaxed way to explore one of Wellington’s best-kept secrets. Just north of the capital, the region is known for its golden beaches, boutique food and wine, and laid-back villages nestled between the Tararua Ranges and the sea. With a private guide, you’ll get local insight into the coast’s history, culture, and natural beauty — all at your own pace.
Tailor your itinerary to suit your interests, whether it's strolling along Raumati Beach, browsing art galleries in Waikanae, or enjoying lunch with a sea view in Paraparaumu. For nature lovers, nearby walks and wetlands provide opportunities to spot native birds and enjoy scenic tranquillity. Every stop is customised for a memorable and stress-free experience.
Add Scenic Walks, Food Stops or Kapiti Island Wildlife Encounters
Private tours can also include exclusive access to some of the area’s most iconic natural attractions. Visit Queen Elizabeth Park for coastal walking tracks, or take a guided day trip to Kapiti Island — a predator-free bird sanctuary home to rare native species such as kākā, takahē and little spotted kiwi. These nature-rich experiences are ideal for birdwatchers and photographers.
Food and wine lovers will appreciate stops at local vineyards, artisan cheese shops, or seaside cafés offering seasonal produce. Whether you’re visiting from Wellington or exploring the lower North Island, Kapiti Coast private tours make it easy to enjoy this diverse and beautiful region with comfort, flexibility, and genuine local hospitality.
