The exclusive use of the Tesla model Y means you can have any number of people between 1 and 4 in your party, and the driver/guide are all yours for the duration of the tour! There's no waiting around for others to get on and off a bus and we go places that are difficult for larger vehicles to negotiate.
If you have a particular passion or interest, we'll try our best to accommodate that during our tour. Flexibility is just one of our strengths. On our tour of the highlights of Christchurch, you'll see so much more, including some of the quirkier things, like the 'living' street art, labyrinth narrow alleys opening into hidden courtyards and historic buildings concealing modern secrets. We've been involved in domestic and international tourism for more than 30 years, serving guests from all walks of life. We know what it takes to look after our guests and make the most of the time you have available.
