    What a delightful tour with our friends, guided by a very competent and detail oriented guide named Heidi. We enjoyed it immensely. A highlight was the drive up to Sign of the Kiwi Cafe and hike up to the views of Lyttelton harbour and Christchurch. Another highlight was hearing the history of Christchurch, the earthquakes and more, much more. Punting was a relaxing conclusion to the day !
