About this activity

Join Pete - your passionate local guide, for an unforgettable experience showcasing Christchurch’s iconic landmarks, beautiful coastal suburbs, rich history and hidden gems. Travelling in the comfort of a modern van with no more than 10 guests, you’ll enjoy a relaxed, personal and fun-filled day, with fascinating local insights, plenty of opportunities to ask questions, and time to truly soak up the sights.

From the charm of the historic city centre to the spectacular scenery of the coast, this is Christchurch at its very best - authentic, engaging and full of memorable moments.

Throughout the day, you’ll experience Christchurch's three signature attractions: floating along the Avon River on a traditional punt, enjoying sweeping panoramic views from the Christchurch Gondola, and exploring the city aboard the historic Christchurch Tramway.
