An interesting and informative walk around Christchurch.

Published on Mar, 2025

A great walking tour of Christchurch with Kim, very interesting and informative. She gave us an excellent overview of the city and its history. Enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended.

Great insight into Christchurch and surrounding region!!

Published on Feb, 2025

We did the Banks peninsula half-day tour, which was beautifully scenic and very informative. We learned a lot about the city of ChristChurch and the surrounding territory, including much about ecology geography early history, Maori culture, and even current politics. Our guide Simon was friendly informative and very accommodating. We’d recommend this tour to anyone. He’s adept at tailoring to the interest of the group

Wonderful overview of Christchurch

Published on Feb, 2025

Great experience with Demi, our local guide, who shared her personal experiences and the history of Christchurch with our group. She was engaging, responsive to questions, and a great sense of humor. Highly recommend this tour!

Simon was an excellent tour guide, and the 2 hour walking tour was perfect!

Published on Feb, 2025

We had a wonderful time exploring Christchurch with Simon. Firstly he was very accommodating of our schedule, allowing us to meet up earlier than booked. He was very understanding of the different ages and walking abilities of everyone in our private group, and went at a pace that was just right for all of us. The history of both past and present Christchurch was engaging, as well as his tips on what to see and do once our tour was done. All in all it was a perfect tour and we highly recommend booking a tour with Simon if you are visiting Christchurch!

Don't miss a tour with Kim

Published on Jan, 2025

Fantastic tour with Kim! Her knowledge of the history, architecture, and cultural background of Christchurch is superb, and her affection for the city is infectious. Highly recommended.
