Christchurch in Spring
New Zealand article

If you’ve enjoyed our spring then now is the ideal time to book another spring holiday – for October!

Christchurch is known as the ‘garden city’ and spring in New Zealand offers blossom-filled parks and the chance to escape the onset of winter here in the UK…

Ballooning in Christchurch, New Zealand
Ballooning in Christchurch, New Zealand  
Centred around the willow-lined River Avon, the familiar sounding street names and the trademark gardens give Christchurch a very English feel, but the prime location between the Canterbury Hills and the Pacific Ocean leave no doubt that you are in New Zealand. Here are a few highlights:

Claremont Country Estate
Located about an hour outside Christchurch, this luxurious property is a fantastic place to relax or use as a base to explore the surrounding area. A 2 night package here includes a 4WD tour of the estate and the Waipara River Valley, described by Destinations magazine as ‘the most interesting and diverse 4WD tour in New Zealand’. A combination of a New Zealand farm tour, a genuine off road driving experience and a geological odyssey.

“The estate is magnificent - Richard's tour is really interesting and informative and we were stunned with the hidden treasures. When we booked Claremont, our objective was to have a couple of days in a restful location, typical of New Zealand. It certainly fulfilled this objective - and more. We wished we had had 3 or 4 nights there and if we can ever return to New Zealand we would certainly try to incorporate a few days there again.”
Pamela Gelder, November 2006

Our 2-night package starts from £642 per person based on 2 people sharing.

The TranzAlpine Experience
“If you’ve a few days in Christchurch, the TranzAlpine Experience is a great way to explore the landscapes of central South Island. In a single day you can take one of the world’s great train journeys, discover amazing scenery, visit a sheep farm and enjoy a thrilling jet boat ride and still have time for dinner in the city at your leisure.”
Pam Forrest, January 2007

TranzAlpine Experience starts from £113 per person

Hot Air Ballooning
“I’ve always wanted to take a balloon flight and above the Canterbury Plains at sunrise seemed like the perfect opportunity. Watching a miniature world awaken below as we glided across the sky was just fantastic”.
Pam Forrest, January 2007

Hot Air Balloon trip - GBP 107.00 per person
