Comprehensive tour full of interest - Good tour via coach, and a knowledgeable guide/ driver. Tour starts via short shuttle from Littleton port to village centre, changing to tour coach across high hills into and around Christchurch, back via a different route. VFM

The experience was... - The experience was excellent! Our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Would do this trip again.

Christchurch highlights - We had a wonderful time in Christchurch and our driver, Scottie was very knowledgeable. We learnt a lot about the area and got to see some of the highlights of the area. Highly recommend!

Check the *Exact* meeting... - Check the *Exact* meeting point. We went to Fisherman’s Wharf as instructed, but the coaches were parked further down the road. We came very close to missing the trip. Other than that it was an excellent trip with a very knowledgeable local driver.

Not really a tour, more of a car service - This tour took us to the places on the itinerary. Not much commentary or information given , more of a car service than a tour

Trip - Big bus. Lots of people. Not a lot of talking about where we are going or what we are doing. Lots of people.

A 3 hour tour? - I signed up for a 3 hour tour to see Christchurch. I got that, but was also left in Christchurch for 3 hours additionally on my own. Fortunately the weather was nice and I had no other plans. But this makes me worry about other viator tours I have scheduled. Can I believe what I signed up for, or will I get stranded on my own again.

Skip this tour - Nothing of value to see. Tour guide was very good. Viator is a good company. We took 3 tours with them. All guides knowledgeable, friendly and really wanted to give everyone an enjoyable experience. But in my opinion not much to see in Christchurch.

AVOID THIS TOUR COMPANY - AVOID THIS TOUR COMPANY! Tour was overbooked. Instead of a small bus tour with guide, we were placed on a large coach bus. Their other company vans were at port. We were unfortunate ones placed on a coach bus, even though I booked 4 months in advance. Our bus driver apologized to us at end of ride, not tour. He said tour was overbooked and he was just a driver, not a guide. Said he was contracted day before to provide bus. He handed out tour company cards to get a refund. Our ride consisted of the driver providing no commentary. He would drop us off at a site, then tell us how much time we had. PERIOD. At the gardens, he dropped us off, told us to follow path, then he would meet us in 30 minutes at other side of park. The path was a maze. A group of us just tried to figure out how to navigate park without getting lost. We obviously did not enjoy park. No commentary at any stop. Just a bus. Could have just travelled by city bus. Did not stop at Riverside Market. Trip details from company says maximum of 30 per tour, our bus held over 40. Since I booked thru TripAdvisor, contacted them. They did not follow up to me. I had to contact them again, told me company denied refund. Will now contact credit card for refund. If I could rate zero stars, I would. Do yourself a favor, do not book tours with Leisure Tours.

Disappointing - Be sure of dates and weather. Tour provider is confusing. Booked tour. Received email correcting date but tickets with wrong date. Took several attempts to get ticket corrected. When weather interfered with ability to do our tour there was no consideration despite having booked several other tours. Enquired about change in time of tour without success. Can’t in good conscience recommend provider.
