Directions for your Nelson Airport Shuttle to the City Centre

Nelson Airport is a modern regional airport located approximately 6 km southwest of Nelson city centre, taking around 15 minutes to reach by car or taxi. The airport serves as a gateway to the beautiful Nelson-Tasman region and brings in over 1.2 million yearly travellers.

To get from Nelson Airport to the city centre, your Welcome driver will head south on Harley Street, turn left onto Quarantine Road, and continue straight until they reach the roundabout. They will then take the third exit onto State Highway 6 (SH6) and continue straight for approximately 6 kilometres, passing through several traffic lights and roundabouts. Here, they will enter the city on Trafalgar Street, one of its main avenues, and use the local roads to get you to your exact location.
