This Halloween, we’re trading tricks for rum.
Step aboard Ika Rere for a unique rum tasting experience on Wellington Harbour. As the sun sets over the city, you’ll follow the story of Captain Henry Morgan and the golden age of Caribbean rum through tales of pirates, privateers, treasure fleets and high-seas adventure.
Taste six exceptional rums from Barbados, Haiti, Cuba, Jamaica, Guyana and beyond, with each pour revealing a different part of the Caribbean’s rich history and rum-making traditions.
Swap crowded bars for harbour views, great company and an unforgettable evening on the water as you discover why rum is one of the world’s most diverse and fascinating spirits.
The only spirits you’ll find on Wellington Harbour this Halloween are in your glass.
Seats are limited, so don’t let your friends tell you about it afterwards.
