Hop aboard a vintage tram for a leisurely tour of central Christchurch. It’s the most relaxing, fun way to get your bearings and see the city's attractions and landmarks.
The trams leave from Cathedral Square in downtown Christchurch. The route then crosses Worcester Bridge over the River Avon, loops past the Botanic Gardens and travels along past the shops of Armagh Street. All trams have an informative on-board commentary.
Why not combine sightseeing on wheels with your evening meal, and take an evening ride on the Restaurant Tram? The colonial-style tram has every comfort, and the menu features local lamb and seafood.

We had a wonderful time in Christchurch, it is a beautiful city with very friendly people. We arranged the three attractions, Hop-on Hop-off Tram, Gondola Ride and Punt Ride on the Avon. The Tram Assistant at the Cathedral stop was very helpful and explained how to get to the Avon and the Gondola. The ride on the Avon was very peaceful, enjoyable and informative. We caught the local bus to the Gondola, our bus driver was very interesting and we were able to see another side of Christchurch. The Gondola ride was great and the view is fantastic, breathtakingly beautiful. The time tunnel was unexpected and interesting. By utilising all of the Tour Options we were able to have an excellent experience of Christchurch at a very affordable price. After having such a wonderful time in Christchurch, we are deeply saddened by the tragedy that the people of Canterbury are currently experiencing. Continue Reading »
