We met our guide,Riwai, at Memorial Bridge and immediately were immersed into Christchurch. A great coffee from the market set us off and we walked and talked for the next 90 mins. Riwai was a great guide, showing us all the things we would not have found ourselves, I highly recommend this tour.

Can’t think of a better way to begin one’s first (or 21st) visit to Christchurch. Our guide, Riwai of Āmiki Tours led us on an informative, fun, poignant and tasty meandering through this city of history, resilience, natural beauty and food and shopping treats. Our interests were architecture and culture, and he adapted the planned tour to one that focused on our interests. He also gave us a superb introduction to Māori history and culture. Being half Māori himself, he offered an eloquent perspective on the history of the people, their interactions with explorers and their art and culture. The tour finished up Riverside eatery, in a pub with excellent lunch time food and bespoke mocktails. It was a pleasure and privilege to have been introduced to to Christchurch (and New Zealand) by us a knowledgeable, humorous, empathetic and well-travelled expert. Do not miss out on the tour of a lifetime!!
Nice primer of the city.

'Gracie' had a vibrant passion for his heritage and his town. We learned a lot about the rebuilding of the city and the impact the residents had on it's redevelopment.
