Time spent discovering the charming Manawatu - Wanganui region is a truly unique experience, and hopefully it will have touched you with its magic. But alas, there must come a time to say goodbye.
When the time comes to pack your suitcase and take off, the closest terminal, Wellington International Airport (WLG), is 250 kilometres to the south.
