Punting on the River — Float along a favorite local boating route, see city highlights and explore the magnificent botanical gardens. Sink back into the velvet cushions of your punt as a skilled punter glides you gently down the River Avon. Feel yourself relax and take in the beautiful scenery as you enjoy this beloved Christchurch pastime. After your punting experience, you will take a short walk to the Christchurch Botanical Gardens. Immerse yourself in peace and tranquility as you stroll around the 150-year old gardens and admire the exotic and indigenous plants. Explore at your own pace and enjoy this inner-city sanctuary before embarking on a short drive through the city. See how Christchurch is preserving some of its iconic buildings following the devastating 2011 earthquake, and hear about its exciting vision to rebuild and restore the city. Afterward, you will return to your ship.
