On this incredibly scenic small group tour, visit Akaroa and explore the Banks Peninsula with one of our friendly and knowledgeable local guides.

Visit some of the small settlements around Lyttelton Harbour and Akaroa Harbour. Learn about fascinating local history, how an enormous extinct volcano shaped this rugged landscape and how the landscape continues to shape the people who live here.

In Akaroa, you’ll either visit the whimsical Giant’s House—filled with vibrant mosaic

sculptures—or enjoy a harbour cruise, where you may spot Hector’s dolphins, fur seals, and seabirds. (Please note: The harbour cruise option is subject to availability and replaces the visit to the Giant’s House.) In town, there are opportunities to try the local cuisine, shop for souvenirs, or admire the local artworks. For those who are more active, a few bush and coastal walks are available along the way.

A day trip that can be either busy and active or laid-back and relaxing.

From Christchurch, our guide will take us up the Port Hills, where we will make a quick stop at the "Sign of the Kiwi" to soak in breathtaking views of Christchurch and the stunning Lyttelton Harbour. The Sign of the Kiwi is a remarkable rest house that survived the 2010-2011 earthquakes but required extensive restorations to preserve its integrity and charm. This building represents a vital piece of history and serves as a welcoming point for those exploring the picturesque vistas along the Summit Road. We stop for a short walk and photo opportunity at the Sign of the Kiwi. A 25-minute drive along Summit Road brings us to the next location.
