Christchurch afternoon - This was a great way to spend an afternoon and see Christchurch! We especially loved the Botanic Gardens by the Avon River - it was stunning and peaceful. Yong was knowlegable and personable and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him.

Appreciated being picked up directly from the cruise ship - We only had 4 on the tour so we’re able to customise it to what we wanted to see. The last lookout at Kiwi Door is a must.

A beautiful tour of Christchurch and the coastline - Fantastic driver who knew all the secret books and crannies of Christchurch. Extra generous with his time. We felt we had a friend showing us around.

Great day in Christchurch - Hi! Paul and I had a great time with Yung, our guide. We toured all over Christchurch, including, a walk along the beach front, visits to rose gardens and talking to the staff who take care of them. Beautiful views of the city. We had a most enjoyable day learning about this city and learning about living there. We highly recommend this tour company. Carol and Paul Gerlach Tempe, Arizona.

Top tour on our trip! - This was an excellent day. We received immediate contact once booked. We were given instructions on where to be picked up and given a description of the vehicle and driver picking us up. We arrived early to our pick hp spot and notified our driver. He arrived shortly after allowing us to begin a little earlier. Our driver was James. He was such a kind, respectful, and friendly young man. As 2 women, we felt very safe with him. He helped Make our tour extra special. He was also very own photographer and took lots of pictures for us. At each stop he walked with us to the site which was nice. I’ve had tours where the driver stops and lets you get out and tells you where to go. I highly recommend this tour! Ask for James, you won’t regret it!

Chauffeur driven - It was good to be chauffeur driven and tour guided. However, my driver is a Korean who lives in New Zealand for five years and still lacking in knowledge of New Zealand and his grasp of English is not good. He is pleasant and courteous and I feel comfortable with him. I am happy with his service, but would like someone genuinely “local”.
