Overview of your Christchurch tour:

So you are considering a 10 day tour to see as much as possible. Well, let me be your guide in the beautiful South Island . . . . I am passionate about the scenery and history here after choosing to settle in Christchurch 30 years ago. I have been guiding for over 20 years and consider it the best job in the world !! Travelling a circular anti-clockwise route we start and finish in Christchurch. . . . you will love the variety and enjoy the magic of this land: beautiful locations like the bays of Abel Tasman National Park in the north, and hidden gems with amazing views like the Milford Road in the south, perfect for those photos to take home ! We will make many stops along the way so you can take pictures and immerse yourself in nature and hear about the history and people who live and have lived in NZ. . . . you will leave with a much better understanding of this special land. It would be my sincere pleasure to show you perhaps the most magical and unique island on earth !
