Love exploring Wellington at half price
There’s a lot to see, do and love about the Wellington region.
Now, thanks to half price fares on buses, trains and the harbour ferry, you can see it all for less. Whether you’re returning to work, hitting the shops, grabbing a coffee or a bite to eat, or whether you fancy a day out on the Kāpiti Coast or the Wairarapa, half price fares bring it all closer for you.
Better yet, they’ve been extended until 31 January 2023.
