- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 21 Jun, 2026 at 01:00 pm
- **Event Description**: SOLD OUT

From 1840 to 1900 Wellington went through an extraordinary period of development and change.  A small rugged beach under cliffs was transformed into NZ’s major port, NZ’s largest commercial centre and the seat of government.   The Friend’s walking tour 'First Burials - an introduction to the oldest parts of Karori Cemetery' visits the graves of the industrialists, merchants, artists, doctors, lawyers, teachers, politicians, engineers, architects and scientists who made all this happen. We bring to life the early history of Wellington by telling the story of their experiences and exploits.  The tour visits the old Public, Anglican, Catholic, and Servicemens Cemetery sections that lie at the centre of the Cemetery.  This is a relatively compact area and the tour, though taking up to 2 hours, does not involve any difficult terrain.

Please note: This tour contains content and stories from two of our previous tours City and Nation Builders.
