Known for good reason as ‘The
Garden City’, Christchurch is for many people the jewel in the
crown of New Zealand’s South Island.

Planned around the famous gardens that give the city its nickname, Christchurch is a city that – like much of New Zealand – is replete with variety.
From the beautiful coast to the stunning mountains this is a region with a great deal to see and do, and it is little wonder that Christchurch is treated by many a tourist as the gateway to a South Island holiday.
