Begin your journey below the iconic Bridge of Remembrance, right on the corner of Oxford Terrace and Cashel Street. Look out for your guide holding a purple umbrella – that’s where your adventure starts. This is a fun and interactive way to explore our city for both New Zealanders as well as those from overseas.

This relaxed 1.75 / 2 hour walking tour takes you through the heart of Christchurch, with plenty of stops along the way. Explore the city’s fascinating mix of geological and human history, from the stories of Ngāi Tahu Māori to the early English settlers who helped shape Canterbury.

Reflect on the profound impact of the 2010/2011 earthquakes, sharing stories of devastation but also of resilience and creativity. Alongside the reminders of loss, see inspiring examples of recovery, innovation, and the ongoing opportunities that continue to transform the city.

As you walk, discover not only Christchurch’s past, but also its present energy and its future potential. This tour offers a UNIQUE perspective on why Christchurch and Canterbury are so well placed to thrive in the years ahead.

We'll also “meet” New Zealand's 4 most important people and their direct connection to our city and province. (Two of these changed the world for ever!)

Even locals are being suprisingly delighted with our tour's content and delivery!
