The Wellington Cable Car
The cable car is one of Wellington's quintessential attractions and a visit to the city is not complete unless it has been visited. Once built as transportation from the city to the farmland in Kelburn (today a suburb), the cable car travels a scenic route through tunnels, past Kelburn Park and the university, and stops in the Botanic Gardens. There is also a cable car museum along the route. Open weekdays from 7am to 10pm and weekends from 9am to 10pm.

Feel the need for speed? Fly By Wire will satiate the most hungry of adrenalin junkies with the first pilot controlled aeronautical ride in the world. Attached by a cable, adventurers board a jet-like contraption in which they control themselves and fly across a canyon, reaching speeds up to 125 kph (75 mph) while experiencing complete weightlessness for six minutes.
