What you'll see

Welcome to Christchurch, a cosmopolitan city of churches set against an ancient volcanic peninsula and Canterbury’s lush vines. Rebuilt following the earthquakes that shook the city in 2010 and 2011, Christchurch today is an urban centre of graffiti-covered laneways with aromatic coffee and architectural flair — best discovered aboard a beautifully restored tram on a 17-stop loop.

On arrival at Christchurch International Airport (CHC), you will be met by our local representative and transferred by private vehicle to your multi-award-winning boutique hotel in the heart of the city. En route, discover why Christchurch is hailed as the ‘Garden City’ with a two-hour tour of the award-winning gardens and historic buildings.

This evening, enjoy an included three-course dinner at the hotel.
