Park in Christchurch

“Stunning scenery good roads truly beautiful”

“Beautiful walk on a clear winter day. While it’s of moderate difficulty, it’s a steep, narrow shingle path a lot of the way and we saw 3 people slide and fall coming down. Google map doesn’t quite take you to the start of the walk. You need to drive into the reserve then you’ll see the start of the walk on your right.”

“Great local drive up to beach wth changing rooms plus 2 toilets. So handy.”

“Nice spot to chill for a bit. I actually saw a few eels and a large fish just standing in the steps”

“Thank you Chet and Steve of being a very good and lovely hosts. Very good stay, the room is cosy, clean and comfortable. They have small little pantry in the room itself - coffee, tea, water and a kettle to boil water. Toilet amenities are also provided. And I like the surrounding garden with planted apples, pears, plums, lavenders and so many others. Walking distance to the nearby cafes and restaurants, and 15km to the Christchurch international airport. As my flight is very early, so I don’t have chance to have the breakfast, which I really love to do it in my next visit again.”

“Amazing gardens. The rose garden is particularly​ beautiful.”

“Our dog Winston can’t wait to go to PAWS every week, he loves seeing the staff and his dog friends. We can’t speak more highly of our experience at PAWS.”

“A windy road going up Dyers Pass or Port Hills takes you to a few viewpoints and tracks where you can see a vista of either Christchurch City or the harbour on the other side. There's also a slightly steep but doable walk going up to the back of Christchurch Gondola which will reward you with the same breathtaking views (with some effort involved!). Would recommend if you're after a nice quiet day away from the hustle and bustle of city life! Just be careful of cyclists on your way there as they share the road as well :)”

“Went today to buy my husband a suit and we were served by Jasmine. She was absolutely awesome. So helpful and genuine. Great service .”

“Best Lamb Dhansak in chch. Great price and quality. Ordered takeaway with colleague for lunch. Chef Shashir is very friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back!”

“Amazing absolutely love the wallabiest add on a cheap fun day if you love animals.”

“Lovely gardens and shop easy walk and very peaceful”

“Amazing food and great value. We had the red curry paste crispy pork and the crispy salmon and both were excellent. The crispy spring rolls and curry puffs for entrees were very good too. Great service. We really enjoyed dinner here and will definitely return!”

“It's not the cheapest sushi but the selection is great and the premises is very nice and easy to order from. Lovely high ceiling and nice furniture. Even the wooden chopsticks and soy bottles feel premium compared to other sushi restaurants. I would advise eating in rather than takeway.”

“Saville Creek changed my life. My entire view of everything that exists in this world, in fact, even in the entire universe. I can never look at anything I know the same way again. Saville Creek represents emotions that most humans could never understand. But I can. Thanks to this creek I was awakened to many things previously considered unimaginable . Thank you for this exquisite creek, I will never forget this experience.”

“Brilliant service and as usual great prices”

“Comfortable seats in the theatre, saw an awesome musical here. Great show.”

“Stunning viewpoint with easy tracks, fresh air, and wide landscapes. Great for quick hikes, sunsets, and peaceful weekend escapes.”

“Beautiful place to go for a walk. Not a simpe walk but the views are all worth it.”

“Has a shallow pool perfect for toddlers and little ones, has a decent park and a flying fox, also has an old school metal rocking horse in working condition :)”

“Enjoyed taking my nephew for a walk along the beach and watching him play around in the sand”

“Very nice walk and nice that disc golf is there as well.”

“Willowbank Wildlife Reserve is absolutely amazing, a perfect mix of native, farm, and exotic animals. The kiwi enclosure was the highlight for me, peaceful, natural, and the closest I’ve ever been to seeing a kiwi up close! The staff are super friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly care deeply about conservation. The grounds are clean and easy to walk through, with beautiful native bush and photo spots everywhere. Feeding the eels and lemurs was such a fun surprise. Great for all ages, and only a short drive from the city or airport. Definitely one of Christchurch’s must-visit attractions!”

“Great experience. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend at all. This is the place to go!!! Many thanks!!!”

“Beautiful long beach with good parking space. Dog friendly,U do swimming,fishing. Beach safeguard are also on duty for emergency .”
