Overview
Our Christchurch Tram City Tour Loop in New Zealand is open and ready to take you on an amazing ride on our heritage trams, filled with history and the best sightseeing in the city!
Our wonderfully restored heritage Trams are one of the main attractions in Christchurch and now you too can enjoy a trip through the city centre in comfort and style!
Our friendly drivers are well-informed regarding the history and facts of the city. They will share their knowledge about the various landmarks and sights on the way and, with a day-long ticket in hand, you can hop on and off as many times as you like throughout the day!
The trip takes you to various main stops so that you can also enjoy Punting on the Avon and sign up for the Christchurch Botanic Gardens Caterpillar Tour.
Some of the main sights that you will enjoy from the comfort of your Tram include New Regent Street, The Art Gallery, Cathedral Junction, Avon River, the Canterbury Museum and the Arts Centre. Remember, you can hop off at any of the stops to get a closer look at these and other attractions along the way.
Your trip starts at Stop 1 Cathedral Junction then on to Cathedral Square. Next up you will pass the very popular Riverside Market, Canterbury Museum as well as Hagley Park, Cranmer Square and finally Victoria Square. At the moment, there are 18 stops along this route.
You are welcome to board at any of the 18 tram stops and, with your ticket for the day, you can get on and off as you please. The trams run at intervals of 15 to 25 minutes so you won’t have long to wait until another one arrives.
The seats inside offer cosy and secure seating while the outside seats are not weatherproof. Due to safety reasons, all children on the trams must be accompanied by a paying adult. Just like any other city, you must ensure the safety of your child in traffic. Please note only particular trams from our fleet are able to take prams and wheelchairs.
