Tourist attraction in Christchurch

“Organised a group of friends to go on a North Canterbury wine tour with Cheeky Kea. Fantastic to work with and sorted all the details! Cheeky Kea also handled the transport to and from our wedding venue which was so easy and great for our wedding guests! Big thanks to Jesse and the team.”

“Revisiting New Zealand after thirty years, I embarked on a journey I'd always cherished with the help of Lim Dong-ik, CEO of Island Travel. From the very first day of our trip to the very last, our trip was enriched by a well-planned itinerary, high-quality accommodations, exquisitely prepared meals, and meticulous attention to detail and hospitality. Furthermore, the insightful information provided at each destination, along with comprehensive explanations of New Zealand's economic situation, history, social changes, and climate, satiated our curiosity and enriched our trip. This was my first package tour, and contrary to my concerns, it was a truly satisfying experience. I highly recommend "Island Travel" to everyone exploring New Zealand's South Island.”

“We played Echoes of the Damned on Monday morning and absolutely loved it! The 9/10 scare rating lived up to the hype – pretty intense, especially for my partner – but it made the experience even more thrilling. Great atmosphere, clever puzzles, and plenty of scares. Highly recommend for horror fans!”

“Lovely beach. A tonne of freedom camping spots along this road with the beach just over the wall.”

“I have seen nurse Maddison a couple of times, she is so friendly, easy to talk to, helpful, thorough, reassuring. A real asset to the nursing profession. Doctor Teo and reception staff are also very good.”

“this store literally has everything!!! great customer service too!! the prices are very reasonable and affordable!!! pinoy pride 4ever xD”

“It's was a pleasure to work with Kim and the team. They made the start and finish to my brother's and my motorcycle vacation absolutely wonderful. They represented the country of New Zealand well. Although we have check this activity off the proverbial "Bucket-List", they have made us consider returning to expound on the great experience. The bikes were modern, stylish and high performance with the proper comfort for our ages (61+). If you're plan is to rent motorcycles in New Zealand, then South Pacific Motorcycle Tours is the only sensible path for the highest probability of success (I didn't mention that we are Mechanical Engineers). Only recommendation versus strong recommendation. Thanks again Kim for the pickup and drop-off.”

“Velocity carts is a great little New Zealand company offering land sailing, in their custom designed and made “blocarts”. These carts are fast and extremely manoeuvrable. You can learn to drive a blocart well within one session, although if you have experience in other forms of sailing that is a definite advantage. The controls are simple, a steering wheel and a main sheet (rope) which controls the sail. At the beginning of your first session, the instructors will show a video detailing how to use a blocart and then explain how best to steer through the course. The staff will then be on the course to give advice on how to improve and to ensure your safety. In windy conditions sail sizes can easily be reduced or heavier wheels added to ensure greater stability. The cost of the experience in 2024 was $75NZ per hour per person. Book your experiences through the website.”

“We had coffee/tea and cake in the lounge, and it was superb. A very nice place to sit in the sun and enjoy life and some history. The staff were fantastic and passionate. Thanks!”

“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 :)”

“Fantastic experience, fantastic cafe will be returning”

“Lovely gardens and shop easy walk and very peaceful”

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

“Special but in wrong place on the map. It is actually across the river”

“So happy to have found this place! Such a wee gem and the boys and girls working there loving it and you can tell. The atmosphere, the food, the experience- Fantastic!! Can’t wait to be back and we will!!”

“The NEW chicken parmi was absolutely sensational, Amazing food, Amazing Staff Would highly recommended stopping by!”

“Delightful little Cafe on good street. I was quite surprised to find a Cafe in this quiet area tucked away from the main street! The iced coffee was delicious, the breakfast we had was good portioned and delicious. I particularly enjoyed the sausage and bacon as they were cooked perfectly whereas some places quite often burn these or are quite oily. The lady was very nice and served us with a smile!”

“Highly recommended for everyone in the family. A beautiful free (donations are welcome) museum, filled with far more aircrafts than we initially expected. Lots to read and discover, displays were well put together and the pacing through the exhibits is perfect. If you need a break, there is a simple cafe, a lovely little gift shop and peaceful grounds. Wish we had more time to explore this past visit. We will have to set aside more time the next visit!”

“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!”

“The most amazing experience at Blood Brothers 4pm Show on Sunday., the show was outstanding. Over and above that, was the extra attention given to me by a lovely usher , having very recently had a foot fracture and I was in a moonboot with crutches. Thank you Maggie for popping my crutches away under my seat for me and getting me a small pillow to put my leg on and also coming back at half time to say you had tried unsuccessfully to find me another seat so that I could put my foot up more comfortably. Your kindness was very much appreciated.”

“We used Mr. Singh’s taxi services in Christchurch for Airport transfer and other needs. Pranav who picked us from Airport is a super person and provided excellent services. Mr. Singh’s service responds to any questions promptly. I would highly recommend Mr. Singh’s taxi services in Christchurch.”

“Best place to take walks on. Very spacious park and has been a part of Christchurch’s identity as the Garden City. Plenty of spaces to take walks and jogs on. Beautifully carved and is clean every time, so you can see how well it’s been taken care of and how disciplined everyone visiting is. Christchurch truly is beautiful and Hagley Park adds to that!”

“Nice and relaxing place... Good place for walking, running and bird watching ♥️”

“All great reviews and I dont have words to describe this phenomenon place. Everything is well groomed. The park is so clean and does not matter how you roam the park, you wont get lost. A must visit, and please make a donation.”

“Great place to go for a walk. Take my dogs most days, they love it too”

“Such a beautiful shared cycling and trapping trail. And with a strong link to the Pike River disaster.”

“Wow, what a fabulous activity to have in the heart of the city! A number of Punt boats go down the Avon River, guided by young gentleman dressed in the European/English style, to give some authentic vibes to the experience! Charlie was our 'punter' a very friendly young chap, and very knowlegable about the Botanical Gardens we floated beside, as well as all the variety of birds and Ducks on the river! The tour lasts around 1/2 hr, and worth every dollar!”

“1st time coming here today with my partner. It was sooo much fun. Highly recommend going. Staff are friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back again.”

“Fantastic island to explore. Great walking tracks. Amenities were surprisingly good. Great place for kids especially the boat ride thrown in.”

“Loved it! Very educational and well done”
