After boarding your traditional, London-style, red double-decker bus in central Christchurch, enjoy fabulous views as you tour the city center for one hour. Listen to interesting onboard commentary detailing the city's history, from pioneering days to the recovery efforts following the February 2011 earthquake.
Then, transfer from your open-top bus to a closed-top vintage double-decker bus for your 2-hour tour of the greater Christchurch area. The tour takes you to the seaside at Sumner, with a stop to enjoy time on the beach while you soak up the spectacular views that include the Southern Alps.
Travel up to the Port Hills for more views over the city, as well as the Canterbury Plains to the Alps, and then stop by Mona Vale Gardens to take a stroll around some of the city's loveliest gardens.
You'll then be returned to the starting point, where your tour ends.
