Discover the top attractions of Christchurch on a private half-day tour. Visit the Cashmere Hill Lookout, Willowbank Wildlife Reserve, Cardboard Cathedral, Christchurch Botanic Gardens, and the Christchurch Arts Centre.
Start your tour with a visit to the Cashmere Hill Lookout. Admire the panoramic views of Christchurch and the Southern Alps. On clear days, you can see the Southern Alps. See the neo-Gothic historical building called The Sign of the Takahe.
Next, head to the Willowbank Wildlife Reserve. See the only pair of takahē on display in the South Island of New Zealand outside a Department of Conservation facility. Meet New Zealand kiwi birds, which are hard to find anywhere else in New Zealand.
Continue to the Cardboard Cathedral, which opened in August 2013 to replace Christchurch Cathedral, the symbol of Christchurch City, which was damaged by the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. Be surprised by the unique structure inside the cathedral made of cardboard.
Visit the Christchurch Botanic Gardens, a famous spot in Christchurch. See the fountain, which is already a well-known photo spot for many people. Relax while looking at the numerous types of beautiful flowers and plants.
Finally, visit the Christchurch Arts Centre, a centre for arts, culture, education, creativity, and entrepreneurship. See the buildings built in the Gothic Revival style, which are currently located together with the University of Canterbury and Christchurch Boys and Girls High School.
