Itinerary

New Regent Street

30 min

One of the cities most colourful and vibrant streets. Adorned with all manner of interesting shops and boutiques, cafes and restaurants. The tram passes through the street on a regular basis and is a major tourist attraction.

Note: The rest of the tour time will be spent for transport to get from one place to the other. Also for lunch stop.
Christchurch Cathedral

10 min

See the effects two devastating earthquakes had on our city, never more obvious than as seen on one of the last remaining buildings still under repair and the icon of our city, our beloved Cathedral
Stop 3

15 min

Offering expansive views on a clear day, over the Canterbury Plains to the Southern Alps beyond, down Pegasus Bay to the Kaikoura's and virtually every aspect of Christchurch City itself.
Stop 4

20 min

Offering panoramic views of the city from a lower perspective, travelling along the streets of one of Christchurch's oldest and most desirable suburbs, Cashmere.
Stop 5

40 min

An area featuring some of the oldest stone buildings still standing in the city. Home to Ernest Rutherford's Den, the ornate 'Great Hall' and many fascinating nooks and crannies. Once home to the University of Canterbury and Christchurch Boys High School, the Arts centre stands triumphantly today as one of our most magnificent original stone buildings.
Stop 6

one hour

An exciting new development consisting of a 7-day-trading, indoor market, linked to a vibrant network of boutique retail, restaurants, cafes & bars - Riverside is a unique inner-city shopping experience for the local community and visitors to enjoy
Sumner Beach (Cave Rock)

30 min

On a good day, Sumner Beach is hard to beat. We'll show you from the top of the beach area known as the Esplanade, right down to 'The Beach' cafe. The Riviera of Christchurch as it is referred to (tongue in cheek) by many locals who live there sits perfectly nestled in the crevices of the surrounding hills.
Hagley Park

45 min

Hagley Park has been at the heart of Christchurch since the 1850s when it was set aside for recreation and enjoyment of Christchurch residents. One of the most beautiful and well kept parks you'll visit, Hagley Park has a network of tracks linking North Hagley, South Hagley and the Botanic Gardens.
