The driver was courteous, informative and a good driver. There was a passenger who missed the pickup and we pulled over and waited approximately 15 minutes for this passenger to be brought to the bus. I was surprised that they would do this as everyone on the bus was held up because of one passenger. The driver was very apologetic and tried to make up the lost time. We had a great day and I would recommend this service.
Beautiful journey with a great driver.
Such a great experience with family or friends. While on the ferry, the views were fascinating and such a great adventure when we were in Quail Island. The staff were so nice and bubbly. Would love to do this again.
Awesome day out,enjoy it so much i keep going back
I was on a cruise with Kate, Alex and Bri. The girls were great at spotting wildlife, especially the dolphins that everyone is hoping to see! The cruise was a well run and professional experience that takes you around the harbour and the skipper will tell you a bit about the history of different areas of Akaroa as you go past. We stopped by a area known to have some NZ fur seals. The dolphins came to bow ride at the front of our boat. We were also lucky enough to spot a new calf!
It's was great experience to see the sight of land and the sea. Also the wildlife. It was awesome. You can take many pictures but picture can not describe what you see yourself.
We both really enjoyed our meal here. We had entrees and a main each. The mains were large, the ingredients all very fresh, and the fish tasted straight from sea to plate. Cant beat that taste. Plus the prices affordable for a couple of pensioners. We will definitely be going back!
This restaurant located in the corner of street. Yummy food and friendly staff. Because it's mainly offer southeast food, the overall taste is sour and sweet. Average cost per person is around $20 for a simple lunch. Highly recommend for the shrimp and kumara cake. All my families love it sooooo much.
My butt hurts because I’m not a cyclist, I haven’t been on a bike since intermediate school and this was well worth it! Our guide was really lovely and the ride was stunning. Love how the e-bike makes hills easy. I’d do this again in a heartbeat.
Great experience with beautiful views
We absolutely loved our visit. It was wet day and on our way we were thinking the weather would spoil the experience. However, it was still well worth the visit. I would go again.
A wonderful experience for young and old! I the tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, relaxed and in tune with the animals it was amazing that he knew every Alpacas name. He was attentive and patient with the kids and allowed them to be themselves and feed them. All questions answered thoroughly and we left feeling we had leant some valuable facts about Alpacas.
Best experience ever. Amazing scenery and wonderful time with cute animals. It was lifetime experience and thanks to the tour guide(forgot her name) who made my day. She explained everything in detail and helped us get along with alpacas and it was really good time. I bought a scarf to remember the tour and it was so warm. I had to order another one from the online shop. Wish I have another chance to visit again
We came here on a monday morning. We had such a great weather but it was a bit windy. The staff were friendly and helpful with assisting us to get close to the alpacas so we can cuddle them. The view was breathtaking as you can see the entire akaroa harbour from the farm. We enjoyed every minute of the experience.
Great fun. Stunning location.
Friendly and lovely Alpacas..The information given by our guide is so informative and enthusiastic in explaining everything about Alpaca
Great view, the time tunnel was a added bonus, really interesting
I love the view from the top and have been up many times via the road, but taking the gondola made for a really different experience. The ride is smooth as surprisingly long, to make the most of the views on the way to the top. Once at the top you arrive into the gift shop and at the back of level 1, down some stairs is the cutest time tunnel ride explaining the history of Canterbury, which was a surprise as I didn't know this was here let alone that we had it included in our ticket price. I was showing visitors around Christchurch and this is an awesome activity to show of the stunning area we live in. The top level has the views and a really nice cafe, we had tea and cake whilst we enjoyed our surroundings, Would reccomend for sure.
We really enjoyed our gondola trip on a sunny Christchurch afternoon. The views out across Christchurch & down into Lyttelton were fantastic. We also throught the "time tunnel" was a fun addition to learn more about the history of the region & the early settlers.
It was a great experience despite the snow showers and wind. Absolutely stunning view!!!! It was super easy to get to the it by getting the gondola shuttle in the city centre!
I went for a visit to the Christchurch gondola on a beautiful sunny day in January 2021. This was my first time visiting with my niece. We had a really lovely time taking photos and going for a wee walk while we were there. The views were breath taking and serene. This is a must when visiting Christchurch. We enjoyed refreshments and I a cheeky wine while gazing outside to the stunning views of the city. The staff were very friendly on arrival and provided very great customer service in the cafe. The Time Tunnel Experience was a bit disappointing. Maybe need to think about updating this, looks very out dated and the poor pronunciations of the Maori words. It would be nice to also hear more about the Maori history in this region. Apart from this a very good experience! thank you.
Beautiful view!
Excellent views and quite serene. Enjoyable for the whole family. Wish we had noticed the family package because it was less expensive but still worth it for what we paid. The Tunnel back in time was an unexpected treat. Operators were super friendly. Put it on the list for a must do.
Beautiful view & ride on the Gondola
Was beautiful weather and awesome sight seeing
Great experience despite the rains and the wind. Try not to pick a windy day to go up the top.
Well worth a trip 'to the top' ! Fantastic views. We were pleased we grabbed some bookme reduced cost tickets as the Time Tunnel was not available. Disappointing.
Must do it in Christchurch! Amazing view and friendly staff! Highly recommend!
It happened to be very cloudy on the day of our booking but that just made for some amazing dramatic moody views from the top, as you can see from the photos we took. We very much enjoyed exploring the nature walks around the top of the hills for most of an afternoon and returning to the warmth of the cafe for a hot drink and meal. Overall a great and affordable scenic attraction that's easy to access from central Christchurch, highly recommended.
Great service. Beautiful sceneries. The gondalas experience was totally over my expectations. Would love to try it at night next time. Many thanks.
Great for the family, beautiful views in all directions.
Great afternoon out with the family- beautiful views - gosh we live in a speculator place- so pleased to call it home
Absolutely amazing staff, and the scenery was mind blowing, complementary time tunnel ticket which was a good bit of fun - I feel bad to say but don’t count on the cafe to provide A+ food and coffee, it’s fairly standard cafe menu/cabinet food and just drinkable coffee but let’s be honest you don’t go there for the food you go there for the experience and the views, both of which are exceptional.
Nice view of the harbor area and a nice cafe if you want to have breakfast.
Loved the incredible views. Learning the background of how Christchurch came about was great. One of the staff were really friendly, which helped make it a very positive experience. And of course the gondola ride was awesome.
It was amazing gondola ride, lovely food and wine and friendly team members. We have been unlucky with the clouds but we knew it when we booked the ride :)
It was very windy,and was scary coming down.Shame the time tunnel was not available..
