Top Local Tips for Christchurch

Things to do in Christchurch I wish I was young enough to enjoy the ride on the Shotover River, the luge at the top of the mountain, the sky diving etc. There is also an Americas Cup boat to go out on if you like sailing or a speedboat on the lake. It must be a great place for skiing in the winter. Take a helicopter or airplane to Milford Sound or over Mt Cook or to the glaciers. There are plenty of bars.

Christchurch Has Four Season Christchurch is the most beautiful garden city - the majority of tourists arrive over the summer but I the best time to really see the bueaty of the city is during the spring and autumn. Daffidols line the roadways during the spring and everything is in blossom, it looks simply fantastic - the weather is usually quite settled also. Christchurch is a very leafy place with trees everywhere.... hence autumn also being a great time to visit (especially for photographers). The leaves on the trees are all turning golden brown and falling to the ground - what a sight! Enjoy!
