Christchurch Gardens and Local Gardening Life
Meet your Canterbury tour guide when you disembark from your ship at the port or outside your hotel in the city. Travel in a 2005 Nissan vehicle with seating for up to 10 people.
Visit several private gardens, including prize-winning entries from the Christchurch Garden Contest. Enjoy time in these beautiful gardens while meeting and talking with the gardeners who created the displays.
Walk through some of the most attractive public gardens. Depending on the season, this may include a factory garden, the University Gardens, or another public park.
Visit a local garden centre for the opportunity to see a broad range of plants, shrubs, and products used by local people in their gardens. You will also have the chance to buy souvenirs with a gardening flavour.
Visit one of the prettiest streets in Christchurch, renowned for its floral displays.
Visit the tour guide's own organic garden, which places special emphasis on kitchen production as well as flowers. You can also choose to have lunch or dinner in his garden or sun-room.
