Heather greeted us with a warm cup of tea and a friendly chat whilst waiting for the rest of the visitors to arrive. Really informative guide, little gem like stories and relaxing tone. Language was easygoing yet informative. Lucky to have access to such a beautiful house and grounds.

First timer to Government House despite being a local. It is a free tour and you can book online to see the grounds and house that the Governor General lives in. Guide was very knowledgeable. The house has a lot of NZ art and gifts from other countries. Well worth a visit.
