Description:
On arrival at the Port of Lyttleton, Christchurch you will be met by your guide and board your transport for your "Christchurch Grand Trail" Tour. Your Guide will brief you on the day’s events before embarking on this Christchurch shore excursion.
Today you will be invited to see some of Christchurch City’s 'must see' attractions and places of interest. Combining 'Punting on the Avon', 'Gondola, Tramways', 'Cathedral Square' and the 'Cultural Precinct', 'Mona Vale' and the 'Botanic Gardens' into a guided day trip makes visiting Christchurch a breeze!
Your driver will take you to the beautiful gardens at 'Mona Vale', an historic Christchurch homestead.
You will then be treated to a tranquil 'punt ride' through the 'Christchurch Botanic Gardens' in one of our Edwardian punts.
The next stop is the 'Christchurch Gondola', where you will be amazed by panoramic views that unfold as the gondola lifts you to 500 metres above sea level. At the Gondola top station you can visit the Time Tunnel ride, take a stroll on the Port Hills and soak up the magnificent views, before returning to your coach and visiting Lyttleton.
Your next stop is 'Sumner', the seaside town at the foot of the Port Hills, then we head back to the central city to ride on the beautifully restored 'Christchurch trams'.
The tram will take you to many points of interest in the city, and you can jump on and off at any time. The 'Museum', 'Art Gallery' and 'Art Centre' are on the tram circuit, as well as 'Cathedral Square', the 'Casino' and New Regent Street. |
