点评:The ride is smooth and in good conditions you get excellent views from the car, although quite a bit of the journey is in tunnels full of coloured lights. Everything is clean and seemingly well-maintained. Unfortunately we reached the summit in the early evening and the museum was closed.
We had originally planned to travel much earlier but as we approached the station we could see there was a very long queue. The cable car seems to be an essential part of cruise itineraries when they visit the city, although why anyone would want to spend up to an hour (estimated) queueing for a cable car in their limited time in Wellington was beyond us.
We returned in the early evening and walked straight on with a wide choice of seats. At the top we decided to visit the Botanical Gardens and found walking through that you descend very rapidly so our return journey started one stop down from the summit. In the shelter was a notice showing the daily schedule of cruise ships for the benefit of locals who use the cable car as local transport so they can avoid busy times. Our advice is to plan your visit around the cruise schedules.

我们原本计划更早出发,但当我们接近车站时,发现排队的人非常多。缆车似乎是游轮到访惠灵顿时必不可少的行程,但我们实在不明白,为什么有人会在惠灵顿有限的时间里,花费近一个小时(估计)的时间排队等候缆车。
我们傍晚时分返回,直接步行上车,有很多座位可供选择。到达山顶后,我们决定去植物园逛逛,但发现穿过植物园会迅速下降,所以我们的返程缆车从距离山顶仅一站的地方开始。候车亭里贴着一张告示,上面列出了游轮的每日时刻表,方便当地居民乘坐缆车出行,避开高峰时段。我们的建议是,根据游轮时刻表安排您的行程。
