Escape the crowds and enjoy an incredible day in the great outdoors, on this stunning guided Crater Rim Walk. Lyttelton Harbour is nestled inside an extinct volcano crater. You will be met at Lyttleton Port by your guide, and transported in a 12-seater van to Sumner Beach for hot drinks at a cafe overlooking the ocean.
Godley Head Loop Track is undoubtedly one of the best hikes in Christchurch, an undulating track with breathtaking coastal views, historic WW2 landmarks, and quaint little beaches. The distance is approximately 8 km / 5 miles, taking around 3 hours to walk, with lots of time to stop and enjoy the scenery.
Morning tea is served at Godley Head, followed by a picnic lunch at Boulder Bay, a secluded beach looking out over Pegasus Bay, and the majestic Southern Alps. Seals, dolphins, and birds are often spotted.
After the walk, your guide will return you to Lyttleton Port, or if time allows you will also have the option of being dropped into Christchurch City to explore.

5.00We had the most fabulous day out! We were cruise passengers and easily met the group to join a comfortable van for our journey. First stop, a coffee shop literally on the beach. Our first taste of excellent NZ coffee we had heard so much about. From there, we journeyed to the start of the hiking trail. It was magnificent and our guides could not have been better. Our group had various fitness levels and they were able to accommodate those who needed to lag a bit behind without hindering the rest of us. We were provided a packed lunch which we ate at tables along the way; it was an excellent lunch of Japanese coleslaw and something baked with sweet potato and veggies. At the end of the hike, we had a few extra minutes and I was able to tip my toes into the icy water on the black sand each - it felt amazing. Our guides gave us great information about the area, plus other advice we requested about NZ. Top marks from us! We are regular cruise passengers, but always seek out independent businesses to support. We get a small group experience rather than a crowded tour bus. This was perfect.
A great way to explore the Banks Peninsula

5.00We loved this tour with Nicole. The perfect blend of informative and friendly. The scenery was breathtaking and the tour was very well planned out. They have thought of it all when it comes to what you needed for the day. Walking sticks, a handy backpack to carry a delicious healthy prepared lunch, fresh fruit, and protein bites. The tour also included a souvenir New Zealand water canteen that we were able to keep. This was one of the most thought out and thoughtful tours we have ever been on.

5.00We had a fabulous sunny day. I was the slowest hiker but there were plenty of stops along this 5 mile gorgeous hike. Many of us were in our 60’s and had a moderate workout -not too strenuous at all. We even saw some sea lions in the water.

5.00Nicole and Dee provided a wonderful excursion, starting with coffee and tea at a beautiful beachside cafe. The hike was a bit over 5 miles, around the crater, with stunning views. The day was unseasonably warm, but there were plenty of breaks and hikers could travel at their own pace, with one guide leading and the other walking at the end of the line. We had a shady spot for the provided picnic lunch and great conversation with our fellow travelers. We also left with the gift of a refillable water bottle as a memento from the day. The start of the hike is a bit strenuous as we travel uphill, but If you like hiking and stunning views, I highly recommend.
The scenery was...

5.00The scenery was fantastic. And Dee, our guide, was fabulous. Nicole from Crater Rim contacted us the day before the excursion with details on the excursion and that was comforting. I recommend this excursion.
Spectacular views. Amazing experience.
