Great day pass - This is a great way to see the city of Christchurch. We had a rental vehicle so it was easy for us to get to the gondola.

Don't pass by. - All 3 attractions are great, especially the gondola, fantastic veiws. Could easily spend 2 - 3 hours on a good day taking in the veiw and even the gift shop had some unique things.
The punting is great fun on the rivet and with the tram ride you can learn some interesting history of the city.

Tourist pass - the tram pass is great even the cable car super nothing to say easy to access and pick up by the shuttle on the other hand you have to pay the shuttle which is not included in the tourist pass
the visit of the boat was not carried out because bad weather was at the rendezvous rain and lightning
they were very responsive and advised us well for 1 partial refund to see with the booking provider or postpone to 1 other day but it was not possible for us because we left tomorrow morning on queenstown

Great package deal to see the sights of Christchurch - The best part of the package was the flexibility and also the cost saving, we chose to start off punting first thing in the morning as it was a very calm and beautiful morning with only a few others, no kayaks yet and no big tour groups.
We then went on the tram as the weather came in with some showers as it was nice to do the whole loop and look around, plus it made us see where other things where located.
We then went on the Gondola, very easy to take the local bus from the interchange, just tap and go credit card or $4 each way, great system and very regular. The view from the top of the mountain was fantastic, even though it was blowing a gale. The weather had cleared, so it was perfect blue sky you could see all around.
We chose to have lunch up at the top as the cafe was reasonably priced with nice staff and the food was great quality. We even bought stuff from the gift shop as it was well priced and decent quality.
I would strongly recommend this package for anyone with a full day in Christchurch as you can also hop on and off the Tram as much as you want to get around

Nice overall view of the city of Christchurch - By boat, tram and gondola ride you get a very nice overview of the city in one day. The booking I found a bit too complicated and confusing. But in the end everything worked out perfectly. All the staff were super super friendly and helpful so all the activities contributed to a very nice day in Christchurch

Great time on the river - It was lovely to sit back and take in the beautiful scenery through the botanical gardens.
Going in spring had the added benefit of ducklings and gosling. So sweet.
The crew were all very helpful too.

Watch out for the extra cost!!! - Enjoyed the three activities but was disappointed that we had to pay an extra $30 for a shuttle bus from the city to the gondola ride which only leave from the tram stop on the hour. I would have thought that would have been included.
