Saker att göra i Christchurch

Måste upplevas! Hade så roligt på gården när jag träffade alpackor och matade dem. Vänlig personal. Mycket informativt.

This tour is highly recommended! Especially in autumn 🍂, the trees along the banks gradually turn red, and there are groups of cute ducklings and Canadian geese. The boatman provides commentary on the history and attractions along the way, which is very informative! It's an activity suitable for the whole family.

Klook pass does really save you some money and it's easy to also book the attractions. Just be warned that the standalone package dates and time availability is different from the klook pass

A lovely wildlife park about 15–20 minutes from the city centre. It’s not a massive zoo, but it’s very interactive; you can buy feed at the entrance and get up close with farm animals and birds. Most of the animals are wonderful, though a few seemed a bit lethargic, possibly due to the smaller enclosure sizes. A highlight was the kiwi area (housed in a nocturnal gallery where you must stay quiet and put cameras away) — the birds are incredibly cute! This zoo is a good spot if you have some spare time in Christchurch.

The whale watching activity was canceled due to bad weather, but the tour guide seemed inexperienced and unable to arrange and execute a backup plan in a timely manner. When we stopped along the way, they also didn't announce the meeting time. Luckily, the group members were quite good and didn't cause any delays. The guide did provide some brief commentary along the way, and there was someone in our group who didn't understand Chinese, but the guide hardly used English to accommodate them.

Was an awesome tour to see the dolphins! The captain also gives good information about Akaroa as well. Would recommend taking sea sick tablets if you get motion sickness or sea sick though to make your time more enjoyable.

Fantastisk upplevelse! Fick se Hektordelfiner 🐬 och även en knölval. Artig och vänlig personal.

From the moment, I was picked up at my hotel accommodation to the trip it was nothing but amazing. The tour driver was very knowledgeable and very ethusiastic during the trip. All of our itinerary and tourist spots were ticked off. I highly recommend to do this Tranzalpine tour from Christchurch to Arthur's Pass. It was my first time in Christchurch and I fell in love with the place. Castle Hill, Otira Viaduct and Devil's Punchbowl Waterfall is a must see + we get to see a Kea bird. I would surely come back next time.

Had a lovely day out with our guide John, who entertained us the whole way with his tales and humour. Do note that this is the version of the tour without the TranzAlpine railway, and they will combine both tour groups. You can still get on the train with their help, but it’s cheaper to just get the train package tour from the start. John helped to sort us out and the ride was definitely worth it!
