Wellington Heritage Week: Murder & Mayhem Tour

October 23, 2023 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

Friends of Karori Cemetery Tour

Karori Cemetery is the final resting place for people whose lives ended tragically – from drowning, from murder, and from accidents of all kinds. This tour includes the story of three militia men killed in a guncotton explosion; an attempted murder followed by suicide; a drowning or two plus other exciting stories.

Each tour is $10 per person (plus non-refundable booking fee). Children under 12 are free. To book your ticket, please visit our ticketing website:

Our tour has a maximum capacity of about 15 persons. If there are insufficient tickets remaining for your party, please email us at [email protected] to check if we can accommodate you.

Note:
If we have to cancel a tour due to inclement weather or sickness, we will notify you on the day by 9am by email and on our Facebook page. The booking fee is non-refundable.

Please dress appropriately for the conditions. While we do our best to guide you on a safe walking route, during the winter months the ground can become slippery in places.

Some of our walks require a moderate degree of fitness and are not suited for those with limited mobility. Please read the tour descriptions carefully to check that they will be suitable for you.

We look forward to welcoming you to Karori Cemetery.
