Joseph, our tour guide, was very talkative and gave out great information and facts about Christchurch. Willowbank wildlife reserve was good and got to see a couple of Kiwis in the dark.

So much information given. Saw a lot in the city. Took a hop on bus as plenty of time given to explore further. Willowbank was really lovely. Great trip.

3 hours was too long to be dropped off in downtown Christchurch. An hour on the tramway and another hour in town would have been plenty. Loved our walk thru Hagley park and the Willowbank animal preserve. Finally got to see a Kiwi!! Diane was a super tour guide, very knowledgeable and helpful! Good choice for an excursion.
