Christchurch Private Tours |
|
Experience a flexible tour of Christchurch, New Zealand, with a friendly personal guide from ToursByLocals. Your private tour guide knows the Christchurch area as only locals do, and is eager to show you some special lesser-known places, based on your travel interests, as well as the must-see attractions of this charming "Garden City."
Glide down the Avon, Edwardian-style, in a flat-bottomed punt. Walk through New Zealand's natural history at Willowbank and see wildlife up close, even the rarest of Kiwi birds. Include a taste of Maori culture for an experience that's authentic and unique to New Zealand.
Hosted by an eco-conscious local guide who knows the best-kept secrets of the city, you'll see the attractions that appeal to you and learn what locals love about living in Christchurch.
Book a Christchurch tour offered by ToursByLocals, and ask your personal guide about customizing your private tour to include exactly what you want to see and do. Go global — tour by local! |

| Tour Guide Legal Requirements |
There is no requirement for a guide to have a license to give tours.
However, if the tour guide is also the driver, then they are required to hold a Passenger Service License and have a Private Hire Registration.
The driver must hold a Passenger Endorsement and must also complete a log book, and must record all work time. Drivers must not exceed the allowable work time.
The vehicle must hold a Certificate of fitness (CoF)
Some rental vehicles are not suitable as Passenger Service vehicles due to the narrow aisle space, seating arrangements and lack of cargo barriers. Most rental company contracts forbid the vehicle being used in a passenger service. report error
