Bikes are a little tired but performed ok and battery lasted the 4 hours including a hill climb. Fun day exploring Sumner from CHCH
Had a group of 7 aged from 16 to 89 and everyone enjoyed the day. Commentary was great and changed around to suit as we went around twice. Thanks to our driver Kris for an awesome day
We really enjoyed our gondola trip on a sunny Christchurch afternoon. The views out across Christchurch & down into Lyttelton were fantastic. We also throught the "time tunnel" was a fun addition to learn more about the history of the region & the early settlers.
I love the view from the top and have been up many times via the road, but taking the gondola made for a really different experience. The ride is smooth as surprisingly long, to make the most of the views on the way to the top. Once at the top you arrive into the gift shop and at the back of level 1, down some stairs is the cutest time tunnel ride explaining the history of Canterbury, which was a surprise as I didn't know this was here let alone that we had it included in our ticket price. I was showing visitors around Christchurch and this is an awesome activity to show of the stunning area we live in. The top level has the views and a really nice cafe, we had tea and cake whilst we enjoyed our surroundings, Would reccomend for sure.
Great experience with beautiful views
Excellent views and quite serene. Enjoyable for the whole family. Wish we had noticed the family package because it was less expensive but still worth it for what we paid. The Tunnel back in time was an unexpected treat. Operators were super friendly. Put it on the list for a must do.
Beautiful view!
I went for a visit to the Christchurch gondola on a beautiful sunny day in January 2021. This was my first time visiting with my niece. We had a really lovely time taking photos and going for a wee walk while we were there. The views were breath taking and serene. This is a must when visiting Christchurch. We enjoyed refreshments and I a cheeky wine while gazing outside to the stunning views of the city. The staff were very friendly on arrival and provided very great customer service in the cafe. The Time Tunnel Experience was a bit disappointing. Maybe need to think about updating this, looks very out dated and the poor pronunciations of the Maori words. It would be nice to also hear more about the Maori history in this region. Apart from this a very good experience! thank you.
It was a great experience despite the snow showers and wind. Absolutely stunning view!!!! It was super easy to get to the it by getting the gondola shuttle in the city centre!
Great view, the time tunnel was a added bonus, really interesting
Beautiful view & ride on the Gondola
Was beautiful weather and awesome sight seeing
We both really enjoyed our meal here. We had entrees and a main each. The mains were large, the ingredients all very fresh, and the fish tasted straight from sea to plate. Cant beat that taste. Plus the prices affordable for a couple of pensioners. We will definitely be going back!
This restaurant located in the corner of street. Yummy food and friendly staff. Because it's mainly offer southeast food, the overall taste is sour and sweet. Average cost per person is around $20 for a simple lunch. Highly recommend for the shrimp and kumara cake. All my families love it sooooo much.
The most amazing and beautiful view. What a great experience for me since it's my first visit here in Christchurch. I would recommend this to anybody that travels to Christchurch.
Great afternoon out with the family- beautiful views - gosh we live in a speculator place- so pleased to call it home
It was spectacular experience Place i never explored before i really enjoyed the peaceful environment on top and really stunning venue i dont want to leave this place but i need to go back Auckland but I really enjoy the Christchurch and particularly ‘Christchurch Gondola’ always in my heart
Been about 13 years since ive been up there. Terminal building up ontop looking a bit tired and weathered, could use a freshen up. The Time Tunnel was neat, my 5 year old daughter loved the whole trip. The photo package you get offered at end is way too expensive, cost more than my ride tickets.
Absolutely amazing staff, and the scenery was mind blowing, complementary time tunnel ticket which was a good bit of fun - I feel bad to say but don’t count on the cafe to provide A+ food and coffee, it’s fairly standard cafe menu/cabinet food and just drinkable coffee but let’s be honest you don’t go there for the food you go there for the experience and the views, both of which are exceptional.
Very nice view at the top!
Great experience
Such a stunning views of Christchurch and much more! Can be windy up the top of the maunga/hill as expected so make sure you rug up as it is well worth it
Amazing experience
Great for the family, beautiful views in all directions.
It was amazing gondola ride, lovely food and wine and friendly team members. We have been unlucky with the clouds but we knew it when we booked the ride :)
Love this Gondola ride its so worth it. A very nice place to take photos and good to know history of the place. The staff was friendly and helpful.
We had fantastic weather and great views. Also thoroughly enjoyed the time tunnel experience with your awesome lady taking us through the process!
Nice view of the harbor area and a nice cafe if you want to have breakfast.
It was very windy,and was scary coming down.Shame the time tunnel was not available..
Everything was perfect, should introduce few more for kids up to the top, so kids can spend more time the activities .
Such a great service and huge savings! Quick, easy and highly recommended. Thanks!
Well worth a trip 'to the top' ! Fantastic views. We were pleased we grabbed some bookme reduced cost tickets as the Time Tunnel was not available. Disappointing.
It happened to be very cloudy on the day of our booking but that just made for some amazing dramatic moody views from the top, as you can see from the photos we took. We very much enjoyed exploring the nature walks around the top of the hills for most of an afternoon and returning to the warmth of the cafe for a hot drink and meal. Overall a great and affordable scenic attraction that's easy to access from central Christchurch, highly recommended.
Was cloudy and very windy when wr went so make sure you go on a sunny day ! Otherwise ot is quite the veiw ! ??
Must do it in Christchurch! Amazing view and friendly staff! Highly recommend!
