The drive in short
113 km, about 1 hour 19 minutes of driving on North Island roads. We plan the pick-up time around your flight, ferry or check-out so you arrive in Foxton when you actually need to — not whenever a timetable allows. Your quote is fixed before you book and covers the vehicle, the driver, fuel and road charges.
What Foxton is known for
Foxton sits in Manawatū-Whanganui, a part of the country associated with country gardens and provincial museums and gorge and range walks. Plenty of visitors build a day or two around walking tracks once they're settled in. Ask your driver on the way — most of ours live locally and are happy to point you at the things worth your time.
Leaving Wellington
Wellington is in Wellington, known for harbour lookouts and the cable car. We collect from homes, hotels, holiday parks, airports and cruise terminals, and we'll wait at the door rather than making you find a pick-up bay. If you're travelling early, tell us the night before and we'll confirm the time by text.
Why travel privately
Luggage, child seats, sports gear and a golf bag or two are all straightforward when the vehicle is yours for the trip. Most people break a drive of this length once. Your driver knows the good places to pull over and how long it really adds.
Wellington to Foxton — common questions
How far is it from Wellington to Foxton?
The driving distance is about 113 km. We measure every route with live road data rather than a straight line, so the figure matches what your driver actually covers.
How long does the Wellington to Foxton drive take?
Around 1 hour 19 minutes without stops. Allow a little more in holiday traffic, in poor weather, or if you'd like to break the trip for coffee or photos.
What does a private transfer cost?
The price depends on the vehicle size and the exact addresses at each end. Enter your pick-up and drop-off for an instant, all-inclusive quote — the figure you see is the figure you pay, with no per-person add-ons.
Can we stop along the way?
Yes. Tell us where you'd like to stop when you book and we'll include the extra time in the quote. You can also ask your driver on the day; short photo stops are usually no trouble.
Do you carry luggage and child seats?
We do. Let us know your bag count and any child seats you need when booking so we send a vehicle with the right space. Larger groups and extra luggage are handled with a bigger vehicle or a second car.
What if my flight is delayed?
Give us your flight number and we'll track it. Your driver adjusts to the new arrival time at no extra charge for normal delays.
