Question

How long will it take to travel by car from auckland to wellington?

Answer 1

depends on how fast u drive..

sorry i doesent answer ur question all the way!!

Answer 2

The intercity coahes take about thirteen hours.

But if you stick to SH1 and avoid the detours and minimise stops you should shave a third off that.  

Just bear in mind there is a lot of deer farming on North Island.  Hitting an escaped one can seriously finish your day.

Answer 3

Give it 8-9 hours so you can stop and take a look at the view along the way, especially round the central plateau which has some pretty impressive looking volcanoes to look at.  In fact if you are coming in (our) winter why not spend a couple of days skiing there.  If your coming in summer you could take a walk around one of the volcanoes.

I'm not sure where the deer comment came from...you are more likely to bump into sheep herds (but no on the main route).  We have quite twisty roads in parts so yeah, just take it easy.

enjoy!
