Bikes are a little tired but performed ok and battery lasted the 4 hours including a hill climb. Fun day exploring Sumner from CHCH
Had a group of 7 aged from 16 to 89 and everyone enjoyed the day. Commentary was great and changed around to suit as we went around twice. Thanks to our driver Kris for an awesome day
Awesome day out,enjoy it so much i keep going back
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.
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.
Great experience with beautiful views
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.
Great view, the time tunnel was a added bonus, really interesting
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
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.
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 place is very beautiful and We got a huge discount in the ticket ride. Thanks bookme.co.nz
Always a nice day out.
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.
Great experience
We had fantastic weather and great views. Also thoroughly enjoyed the time tunnel experience with your awesome lady taking us through the process!
Very nice view at the top!
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!
I booked online,so picked up tickets at counter, we went up to the top great views, looked at the shop spent a bit and came back down, it wasn't until we were driving back to Dunedin that I seen we were supposed to go to a wee show up the top, no body mentioned it and there was no signs, we didn't know so the kids missed out gutted, they would of loved it.
It was spectacular experience Place i never explored before i really enjoyed the peaceful environment on top and really stunning venue i dont want to leave this place but i need to go back Auckland but I really enjoy the Christchurch and particularly ‘Christchurch Gondola’ always in my heart
Amazing experience
Must do it in Christchurch! Amazing view and friendly staff! Highly recommend!
Great afternoon out with the family- beautiful views - gosh we live in a speculator place- so pleased to call it home
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.
It was very windy,and was scary coming down.Shame the time tunnel was not available..
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
We had a fantastic time here. The weather was amazing and the views are spectacular. We did two of the track walks and these were definitely worth it. The food in the cafe is delicious and the bonus was a 7 minute ride which takes you through the history of Christchurch. Did not expect any of this when we arrived. Would definitely recommend this to friends and family of any age.
