Mini Guide for Christchurch
Known as the Garden City, Christchurch is South Island’s largest and greenest City and has a very English feel with the River Avon flowing through its centre. If you really miss
England you can even take a punt down the river which is a nice way to see the City.
Once you have picked up your Rhino hire car on arrival at
Christchurch Airport, you will most likely head into town via the State Highway One. Having a car is the only way to get out of the city and explore other parts of
New Zealand.
One such gem is the Summit Road where you pass farms and bays with stunning views of the islands. Watch out for sheep along the way though. If you want to soak up the atmosphere of life in New Zealand try Lyttelton Bay which is all hustle and bustle with good cafes and shops.
