Christchurch has been voted as one of the best city’s to visit in the world. Since the earthquakes, the city has a real buzz and is very popular. On the tour, I’ll show you all the best parts of our city, port hills and anything you’d love to see!
I was born in Christchurch, and have grown up in the city and in the surrounding area. I have been tour guiding around New Zealand since 2012 and even had a stint as a TV Presenter for a farming show on our local network, CTV.
On a Scotty B Tour you can rest easy knowing you're going to get great service, I put my name on it!
I've travelled to more than 40 countries and I know that meeting & travelling with a local guide can make for a great experience.
Our city has been reborn and I want to make sure you have the best experience in our beautiful city and see as much as you can. Both New, old and get you exploring our nature!
