we had done this several years ago and this time i found it to be quite disappointing especially the food. there was not enough for the table of ten. i would recommend willow bank to anyone but unfortunately not the concert
It was a quiet day, so not all of the attractions were running as scheduled - except our tour guide made sure they did. The snow room and hagglund ride are a must - the 4D adventure comprised of getting squirted in the face with water (that was the 4th D)
Though the earthquake closed the Antartic Center, the tour operator did a great job of providing alternative arrangements. Our driver, Ross, was outstanding -- friendly and personable.
Very enjoyable
This is all you must seen in Christchurch...
Well we were the only 2 taking the big 5 on the day we went so we joined with another group who were only doing 4 attractions and they were given a choice between 2 of the attractions so they're was confusion and delays from the start. We were on the bus for 50mins before we got to our first attraction the next attraction we were there for a rushed hour. My husband and I had to catch the bus with the others who were going on the Gondola( we weren't told we were not) when we got there we were put on another bus to go for our cruise but the bus driver didn't tell the new bus driver we were going for the cruise so he just took us back to the city with the rest of the group. So we missed the cruise and were refunded an amount of money which we thought wasn't enough. All in all a crap day!!
Funny and kind of kitschy. Did not do the dinner and glad we did not. The wildlife was interesting and the girl who did the tour was full of good info about the birds of New Zealand.
Great time had by all. Plenty of time to see the outstanding exhibits that the city has to offer.
What a great day. Jam packed full of all the best sights and experiences Christchurch has to offer. Well organized and fantastic value for money. If you only have one day available in Christchurch, I would thoroughly recommend doing the "Big Five Attractions". We were amazed by the friendliness and helpfulness of both the tour drivers and operators. A great start to our holiday. Thanks.
Excellent guide and well organized.
This was fairly entertaining and instructive. The lighting outside was too low to take decent photos and the kiwis were almost impossible to see in the dark (OK, they are nocturnal but some red lights could help!). The dancing and singing were good, as were the stick-swapping and ball-twirling.
To short for the price. Not what we expected. Been to one in north island. beat this one hands down! Get your act together Chch
Very wet so not the best time to go
Good full day coverage of Christchurch attractions. Cruise & Gondala were highlights. Drivers very helpful.
Poor weather broke up our tour, and transport for the rescheduled part of our tour cruise and gondola was an issue.
