 Metlink Explorer: $20
Here is a great way to explore Wellington! It’s the one ticket for a whole day, on all your bus and train travel! A child (5-15 years) can travel for free with an adult!
For all-day (after 9.00am on weekdays) travel on any Kiwi Rail (except Capital Connection and Wairarapa line), Go Wellington, Valley Flyer, Newlands or Mana Coach Service (except WELTEC 97).
Tickets can be purchased from Valley Flyer, MCS, NCS or Go Wellington bus drivers or usual rail ticket outlets and train guards (on a MCS & NCS bus, you can use your smartcard to purchase a “Metlink Explorer” ticket – no smartcard discount applies).
'The Metlink Explorer' ticket is also available on weekends and
public holidays.
Working out your fare/zone
If you click into the "Timetables" in the Metlink website http://www.metlink.org.nz/, you may download the bus timetable you are enquiring on. Find on the timetable map where you will start and end your journey and count the number of different coloured fare zones you will travel through, including the zone that you will start and finish in. Then look at the adult/child fares tables, to work out the fare for your trip.
