Review of Christchurch’s antique tram and Gondola combo, with city sights, mountain views, costs, transport tips, and advice for choosing your day.
“Hopping on and off Christchurch's trams was a great way to see the city's major landmarks. We also loved taking the gondola up above the Canterbury Plains, where we had a great view of Lyttelton harbour and the journey taken by the early settlers. We thoroughly recommend taking the path back down and following their journey into Christchurch.”

Review of Akaroa’s Banks Peninsula and Christchurch tour, with scenic drives, earthquake sights, gardens, timings, value, and practical cruise tips.
