Great views
Großartige Aussicht über Christchurch, war um 6 NZD billiger hier zu buchen als vor Ort zu bezahlen :-) danke sehr. Sehr nettes Personal an der Seilbahn. Definitiv zu empfehlen.

“It was so fun that I almost cried. I liked the cafe because they have ice creams and I had the bubblegum one (but I didn’t eat the bubblegum part) I liked the Discovery ride. I like that I could ride for free but when I turn five then we’ll have to buy a ticket for me.”

Such an amazing experience!
We really enjoyed our time at The Gondola. Such amazing views and the 'experience ride' was much cooler than expected! Great gift shop and cafe as well. All around an awesome experience. A must do if you are in Christchurch!
