About the Journey

Driving from Wellington to Auckland takes drivers across nearly the full length of New Zealand’s North Island, offering stunning views of the surrounding hills and mountains. The eight-hour journey covers just under 400 miles. Driving along State Highway 4, travellers are treated to breathtaking views of Mount Ruapehu, a volcano that hosts the North Island’s only glaciers. Travellers also have the chance to visit Tauranga, which offers a range of attractions such as art galleries and exciting outdoor activities. The city of Rotorua is another popular tourist destination, where geothermal activity causes steam to rise from the roadside. Taupō, meanwhile, offers hot springs and caves, as well as skydiving and bungee jumping.
