Reviews: Christchurch Hop-On Hop-Off Tram
Guest User2025-11-16
What an absolutely wonderful way to explore, and learn about, Christchurch. We had an amazing day, firstly staying on the tram from Cathedral Junction and completing all 18 stops. We then went part way round and ‘hopped’ off, enjoying our chosen point. Then on again, and off at the stunning, beautiful Botanical Gardens. Hopped on again, did another stop and finished with a second 18 stop round. Simply Wonderful!! We were so lucky with Driver David and Conductor Marjorie, on Tram number 24, brilliant, and we happened to pick them up again twice more, in reverse roles. Can’t recommend this trip highly enough!
