A moitié prix, c'est une vraie affaire !

Le bus est parti en retard de Christchurch car l'organisation est assez mauvaise. Mais une fois qu'on est dans le bus, tout est parfait. Très pratique pour visiter Akaroa le temps d'une journée. Le bus attend devant le quai le retour des excursions en mer pour le retour sur Christchurch : nickel !
