Creator's Key Takeaways

Jaw-dropping. I have to say it is absolutely beautiful.

It's felt really hasslefree and not rushed at all. It's felt really nice.

Absolutely beautiful inside. If you have some time in Christ Church and you want something interesting to do, you're feeling a little bit hungry, fancy a drink, absolutely check out the Riverside Markets.

I loved that. Especially because we were in the throne at the back.

Factor in travel times and wait times when planning activities.
Sit at the higher seat at the back for a better view during punting.

YouTube Video Description

Our second port of call was the fabulous City of Christchurch. Because we had fabulous weather yet again we were able to take our planned trip up the mountain on the gondola for some fantastic views over Christchurch and the bay and then head on back down for a leisurely punt on the Avon. There were a couple of dramas along the way but we still managed to top the day off with a look around the portside markets before heading back to the ship to enjoy dinner, the show and the evening entertainment, which we have found to be superb so far.
