Gondola and punt were wonderful. Make sure to get punt reservation in advance. We started our day at the Gondola because it is away from the rest. Beautiful views. Then local bus to tram. Trams were very crowded the day we were there, so we elected not to get off, just do one complete circuit. Still fun way to see Christchurch. Punt was a relaxing, scenic way to end our day .

It was good. However, we didn’t realize that we had to make a reservation for the punting boats. The gentleman at tge first stop helped us by making a call. We were lucky it worked out. The trolly cars got filled up fast. That was somewhat difficult with one of our group being handicapped.

We had one day in Christchurch as we were on a cruise. This was a lovely way to see the city and get commentary from different tram drivers as we hopped off and on -- we had caught a public bus from Lytlleton and along the way a local said not to worry about the tram as you could walk the route just as easily and suggested riverside market and the view from the library -- we did those things as we saw them from the tram and the trams had stops at both -- we then went on the punt which the lovely customer service fellow had booked a time for us when we picked up our tickets at the first tram stop. The punt was wonderful as the weather was perfect and we glided by the botanic gardens and there were ducks everwhere. The Gondola ride has great views - I am scared of heights but I managed. The souvenir shop at the top is astounding.
