Film buffs will dig the Weta Cave, a mind-blowing minimuseum of the Academy Award–winning special-effects company that brought The Lord of the Rings, King Kong, The Adventures of Tintin and The Hobbit to life. Learn how they do it on 45-minute guided tours, starting every half-hour. Weta Cave is 9km east of the city centre: drive, ride your bike, catch the Miramar bus (No 2) or book transport with your admission. Book online.
