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.
Great experience with beautiful views
Great view, the time tunnel was a added bonus, really interesting
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.
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.
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!
Beautiful view!
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.
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
Awesome day out,enjoy it so much i keep going back
Was beautiful weather and awesome sight seeing
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 :)
Amazing experience
It was a fantastic day out with stunning views on top. Definitely recommended. The shop on top was a bit over priced though, so couldn't buy much.
The place is very beautiful and We got a huge discount in the ticket ride. Thanks bookme.co.nz
Been about 13 years since ive been up there. Terminal building up ontop looking a bit tired and weathered, could use a freshen up. The Time Tunnel was neat, my 5 year old daughter loved the whole trip. The photo package you get offered at end is way too expensive, cost more than my ride tickets.
Tres belle vue sur la baie .
It was very windy,and was scary coming down.Shame the time tunnel was not available..
Such a great service and huge savings! Quick, easy and highly recommended. Thanks!
It is so awesome. .Highly recommended to visit it
Great experience despite the rains and the wind. Try not to pick a windy day to go up the top.
Was cloudy and very windy when wr went so make sure you go on a sunny day ! Otherwise ot is quite the veiw ! ??
We had fantastic weather and great views. Also thoroughly enjoyed the time tunnel experience with your awesome lady taking us through the process!
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.
A lovely place to go on a fine day for spectacular views of Christchurch and Lyttleton Harbour. Also found the time tunnel ride taking us back in time quite informative
Everything was perfect, should introduce few more for kids up to the top, so kids can spend more time the activities .
Great experience
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.
Nice view of the harbor area and a nice cafe if you want to have breakfast.
Fantastic must do. The ride up and down had beautiful views. Once up there u realised just how big Christchurch is. The tunnel ride was so realistic the display was life like.
The Gondola and views are amazing. The restaurant, not so much. The only reason this has a 4 star review is because the restaurant let it down. The food was less than average for the high prices. The customer service from the restaurant team was lack lustre and to top it off I ended up with a sore stomach and spewing from the food. The Time Travel Experience was a fun way to get to know the history of the Canterbury region in brief and the 360 views over New Brighton beach and Lyttleton were priceless!
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.
Love this Gondola ride its so worth it. A very nice place to take photos and good to know history of the place. The staff was friendly and helpful.
