    可惜没有中文解说

    本来应该是坐双层车的,但是由于当天双层车去保养了,因此换成了大巴。旅游公司对此表示歉意,因此特地给每位游客一张一年有效期的券,凭此券在一年内可以免费再游玩一次,这点还是挺让人舒服的。一个小时的车程对于基督城来说应该是够了,只是车上没有象其它国家那样的中文自助讲解,所以很多内容还是没有听懂,略有一些遗憾。

    观光游览巴士围绕着基督城走了一圈,司机全程都十分负责地进行每个景点的讲解,而且在著名的景点前都会停留几分钟让大家拍照留念,巴士观光令人能更深刻了解基督城,是人文和景点都很好的一个美丽城市!赞!推荐大家花一小时乘坐巴士观光!

    Christchurch City Tour

    Great way to see the Christchurch City sights especially sitting on the top deck. We enjoyed it so much we went around twice. The drivers both times were very informative.

    Good tour

    Driver/Host was great and very informative. However, no specific timings forbwhen the bus will arrive and we ended up waiting for an hour for the bus.
