Tourist attraction in Christchurch

“Great visit thanks to the volunteers keeping this running. Support this marvellous place, an-example of how the “old timers” lived. Brent at the model trains was particularly interesting. I hope the government can also see the value and start the funding once again.”

“Went to the Hagley Oval to watch New Zealand vs England. Fantastic venue with easy access to the botanic gardens and the city.”

“A great walk. We headed up via the RHS. Starts gently then for the next third goes up a bit steeper. The final third flattens off. Good views going up and from the cave itself. The walk down is pretty steady on LHS (as you look from the bottom). Less rocks etc than going up on the RHS. There is a toilet block at Football club. ( needs a clean)”

“A short Gondola ride up to the top of Mnt Cavendish, a great outlook over the city and a view of some sheep in the paddocks below, but it was the view at the top that looks towards Lyttleton Harbour and the city is spectacular! Very smooth ride and not really that high off ground,(I still wouldn't want to fall out, though), but within reach of some with height fears.”

“Really cool place & the bar had a great atmosphere. The people running the venue were lovely and very helpful. It is by a main road but great value for what you get and conveniently close to the airport.”

“Caught the sunset here on a weekday and had the entire place to myself. Very tranquil and good spot for a picnic.”

“Had a coffee break out witnessing. Watch out for the golfers hitting golf balls lol. i noticed there was a lot of green grass and trees, pioneer stadium is close by and one good feature out side was that there was volley ball courts and tennis courts and basket ball courts all available free to use. and there are picnic tables and a barbeque there to use, so i recommend trying out this place with your family.”

“Great location to take the kids to burn of some steam.”

“Why bother going to Japan when you have Kenzo! The food is absolutely the best and the ingredients were top quality. Presentation of the food is incredible and the staffs are very welcoming and considerate, they offered us spicy oil separately to the ramen to put them according to our preference. Can’t wait to visit again !”

“Nice skatepark and playground..clean toilets easy street parking.Rose garden is in full bloom”

“Great little pop up museum while the main one is worked on”

“We did the 1 hour loop track in anti-clockwise direction. Its all beautiful, but the wasp populations are crazy in summer, so better be prepared with anti-histamine creams / sandfly repellants forehand. The ascend after the first stream is very steep and might be tough for beginners. There was mud almost everywhere, about 40% of the track. The waterfall here is not accessible, you can only see it from a top bridge.”

“Good car park. Reasonable walk. Great large creek for dogs. Nice.”

“Governors Bay Fete opened 20th October. It was fun and I had a great day. Seemed everybody enjoyed and kids loved.”

“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.”

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

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

“Great day out from chch Love the ships, go at low tide to really appreciate them up close”

“We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful scenery along the Avon River. The area felt much more expansive than the Botanical Garden but still provide green luscious atmosphere comparable to the Garden, with lovely walking tracks shaded by tree-lined paths. There’s also a nice café to stop by along the way. Overall, doing a loop walk from bridge to bridge was a truly enjoyable experience.”

“Such a beautiful place to visit in Christchurch! Especially in high tide. Highly recommended.”

“Great little playground tucked away here”

“My daughter,part Maori 14 year old granddaughter and 14 year old Australian grandson absolutely enjoyed the experience,involvement and knowledge of the crew and their encouragement for all to partake in the experience. All want to do it again. Best experience ever,even for me just watching”

“We came here for a friend's birthday party and it's a great set up. Lots of different inflatable options for the kids, food and drinks available to buy, but can also byo and lots of tables as well.”

“Wonderful place to bring family and friends! We had an (arctic) blast last time we went, had a lot to do and see with all the activities and shows althroughout. Please note though that rides do have a height requirement which they are a bit strict with for safety reasons. The rest are pretty accessible to the young and young at heart. A bit pricey but you doget a lot of enjoyment and knowledge out of it.”

“So cool! Good value for money! Had a shuttle if you didn't feel like walking. Lots of cool animals to see. Even got to feed the giraffes! Very ethical place no forcing the animals to interact it's all on there terms. Plenty of very friendly staff and awesome guides.”

“Small intimate park very cozy,next to te Aratai high school”

“I had bad experiences with dyeing my hair but finally I got the color I wanted at this salon.. Thank you very much”

“Where my Granson plays soccer ⚽️ nd has Soccer ⚽️ Practice Awesome Reserve”

“Beautiful park. Good space for activities or a walk with the dog before picking up the kids from school”

“Great place very convenient, probably the only suggested upgrade would be a separate area for smaller dogs.”
