5.00Our tour with Reg was incredibly informative, and he was so gracious in answering all of our questions. His enthusiasm for the city truly shone through, making the tour even more enjoyable. His knowledge and ability to relate past events and people to the present day Christchurch made for understanding the city as it exists today. We highly recommend him as a walking tour guide for anyone looking to explore the area.
