3 CHRISTCHURCH Must Do Experiences (Gondola, Tram & Punting) | Reveal New Zealand S2 E18

Episode 18, Season 2 of Reveal New Zealand from Christchurch! There's so many amazing things to do in Christchurch, we've picked 3 - the gondola is obviously... ✪ Do you want the best New Zealand travel tips for your trip? Our ultimate travel guide is here - danegerandstacey.com/nzguide ⬇ More Below ⬇
Welcome to Christchurch! This city and its residents have been through a hell of a lot in recent years - rather than focus on the sadness from those occasions we wanted to share with you the epicness that's come from the rebuild. There's some really fun new things to do in Christchurch and over the next few videos we want to share some.
This travel vlog is all about 3 unique ways to see Christchurch - number 1 is the iconic tram around the city centre, number 2 is punting on the Avon river and number 3 is of course the Christchurch gondola.
More than just these 3 things to do though, there is so much on offer here that it's become a really cool city to walk and explore. The contrast between the new and the old, the rebuilt and untouched, the replanned and TBD locations - there is a cool feeling that you need to check out for any New Zealand travels.

Love how you always have a good attitude about working things out on the fly even after putting in all that research!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Aw thank you! Its not always easy but we've learnt over the years its best to go with the flow!

[@MandiriPlafond]

nice info 🔔☕

You make me smile every time I watch you both. Thanks for giving your time to make people happy

That's so nice to hear!! Thank you for taking the time to leave this comment and make US happy!

[@susanhammond2724]

Really enjoyed your video. I grew up in Christchurch and spent many weekends floating down the river in canoes and paddle boats in the 80's with my friends. Now live out of the city but still drive in every day to work. Loved your video.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

That sounds so epic! Really glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for watching 😊

[@walterwiniana]

Thanks for sharing your experience in Christchurch! The city looks so amazing these days! I haven’t been back there for about 27 years! The Gondala still looks like a scary ride, as I remember! The tram looked like fun, and the Punters on Avon looks so cool! Thank you again! You’re videos are the best 👏👏👏

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Oh wow, the central city must look completely different to you now! Thank you for watching 😊

[@wholiveswhere]

Super cool reviews guys, as a Kiwi living abroad in Asia and having not lived back in NZ now for 10+ years, this gives me inspiration to come back and explore again like a new start. Love your enthusiasm, NZ has to so much to offer!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Stoked to hear that, glad to remind you of how cool NZ is. Easy to forget that when you travel (we did) so it's awesome to check it out again

[@hilarywallace9927]

Beautiful place, and the view from the top WOW!

I love watching your videos, better than the tv. I love how you show touristy and non touristy things. Looking forward to seeing more of your older videos and catching up. What's more, I love how you're so real and not keeping it too professional. The punt looks amazing, how wonderful having a hot water bottle and a warmed blanket, wow that is such a special touch.

Was in Christchurch in January. Lovely city and great people. I really admire how quickly they are re-building after the earthquakes. Highly recommend a visit if you are in that part of the world. Excellent food in the restaurants. Walk in Hagley Park such a beautiful place to rival any London park, and the river to enjoy.

[@sallylouise9826]

Lovely video , lovely locations and nice to see Christchurch is regenerating well after the earthquakes . Love the gondolas and the punting .

[@DanegerAndStacey]

The heated blanket and hot water bottle were such a nice touch, especially on a freezing cold day!

[@mattieclan8957]

Sugar loaf is where the radio & TV communications tower is located. Quail island used to be a leprosy colony. Lovely set up showing historical set up of the island. The beach is great, gorgeous for picnics. Closes during winter. The ferry operates I think 3 trips a day. We usually take the first trip and return on the last trip.

[@jasehatcher8283]

I lived in Chch before during and after the quake. It's a resilient and bright lil city! The walk from the entrance of the Gondola (Bridle Path) over into Lyttleton Harbour with a stop off at Glamour Cake or the Lyttleton Farmers Market if you're there on a Saturday...*chefs kiss*. Can't be beaten! Absolutely love all your videos, thank you for the great content~

[@DanegerAndStacey]

That sounds awesome, we will put this on the list for next time we're there! Aw thank you for watching 😊

Cool video guys, my sister is moving to the Christchurch area early next year so she gonna find me on her doorstep ALOT! Can't wait for the food tour 😋

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Oh we're jealous!! No doubt your sister will LOVE living there 😊

[@sitiyangmenaip9514]

Gosh !! very nice video.. made me missing NZ more. I got to spend two days in Christchurch.. unfortunately the weather was bad so we could not do many activites.. but.. Mrs Higgins ✅ Tram ✅ Punting ✅ Gondola ❌ Glad that the two of you shared the gondola journey.. so beautiful 🙂

[@DanegerAndStacey]

So cool you got 2 days despite the bad weather! Hopefully you can come back and do the Gondola on a sunny day sometime

[@ErikaHamilton1]

Stunning Christchurch. My hubby was born there.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

It really is stunning!

[@travelertrome8449]

Christchurch looks so charming! The trolley reminds me of the one in Lisbon. I agree gondolas can be scary, as we have one in Palm Springs. But what a reward with that view at the top! 😎

[@DanegerAndStacey]

That's such a good way to describe it, it's really charming! Definitely worth all the gondola bumps to take in that view at the top 😍

[@angechristensen7559]

Another cool vid guys. I had no idea Chch had Gondola's!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

It's cool right, the views are unreal!

[@mikewaldie7707]

Thanks taking me around my home city. Can’t wait to get back soon, and can’t wait for the next food tour vid! Side note, someone definitely needs to open a restaurant at Sugar Loaf 😂

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Thanks for coming along on the journey with us! You're in luck, the food vlog just went live 😊 Haha we totally agree about Sugar Loaf!

[@bengmelea8646]

2:56 I think the punting in Christchurch reflects back to the tradition of punting at Oxford or Cambridge in the UK (rather than the Venetian type) given the strong historical connection Christchurch has back to the 'old country'.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Good point. We weren't comparing them to Venice, just saying that we figured our first time punting would be there :)

[@kimtraros2019]

Very nice place in New Zealand bro 😎, thank you for yr Video 👍👍👍

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Thank you for watching :)

[@excitingbusiness]

Thanks Stacey and Daneger I really enjoy your videos. Visiting New Zealand is on my bucket list and I'm so glad you are doing Christchurch in a little more detail than many videos I have seen. I am really, really hoping you do an in depth video on Dunedin and area as, while I know it is a smaller city of 128,000, it looks charming and the weather a little more "Scottish" and rugged. I like smaller less populated places. - Richard - Alberta, Canada.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Always great to know what people want to see. We have no plans to travel to Dunedin anytime soon but if that changes and we're down that way we would happily film a few more in depth videos :)

[@unpluggedkiwi1063]

Sugar Loaf used to be where the TV transmitter was for the Canterbury Region. I was born in Rangiora, about 30km north of Christchurch. Still remember our first black and white TV. Only one channel in those days.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Oh wow! Thanks for letting us know.

[@ramzi3146]

Homeeee! Absolutely miss home

"Aaaaaamizng!" and now i need this sound for my phone ring tone! ;)

It seems to be getting colder in New Zealand. Its so strange to see. The summer is starting in Germany right now, and we have the first days with over 30°C!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Ughh don't remind us! We'd love to experience another European summer (although we have some epic snow adventures coming up!) Hope you're enjoying the sunshine!

[@cmhax5853]

Love Christchurch

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Same!

[@mattieclan8957]

Quail Island is about 81 ha uninhabited Island although you can get approval to camp there I suppose only during summer. Lovely beach and great walks with so much interesting history. It was predominantly used as a quarantined for immigrants to ensure they are free from illness, diseases before they are allowed into Christchurch. A period of time it was a leper colony. Shackleton, Scott and Byrd expeditions also used the island for quite a number of years as well. Great to simply enjoy a lovely picnic on the Island all day during the summer. If I can recall, the first ferry was at 10am and the last at 3pm. I suppose it changes according to the weather

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Ooh thanks for the background info! So interesting. Yeah the ferries run on a different schedule in the autumn/winter and I suppose with less tourists about they decided to reduce it down to once per week. Would be great to head over in the summer!

[@ianlove3]

Why do you keep doing this to me love it. Thank you stay safe.

[@ritaauld3331]

[@stephaniegruenberg7044]

I don't know why, but Daneger wearing a Chicago Bulls sweatshirt makes me really happy. Loved the multiple ways of seeing Christchurch! "Should we eat some warm cookies?"...how was that even a question? It must have been rhetorical The amount of background information you two give as you do your vlogs is quite impressive!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

He was such a Bulls (and Jordan) fan as a kid and remembers watching the championship so he found a retro jumper with those dates! Mmm warm cookies, you can't beat em!

[@stephaniegruenberg7044]

My brother was a big fan growing up too. His whole room was Bulls stuff (wallpaper, red carpet, etc).

[@Lulu-jl5zd]

Lovely vlog :D Now Stacey should you visit the Isle of Capri off the Almafi Coast off the southern coast of Italy do not take the second chair lift to the summit. When it descends it drops about 20 feet straight down out of the station and then caries you down all safe but they are single seats. I ruined a hat because as I screamed I squashed it! Love your vlogs and this second series is as good if not better than the first!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

SOLD 😍 I'll take on any heights if it means I can go to Italy!! So happy you're enjoying season 2!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Thank you for watching :)

[@loniallorenz2009]

Of course we have to go back to NZ after 22 years, we just have to figure out how. Seems to be two obstacles, our budget, and NZ visitor restrictions (see the effort Gone With the Wynns put forth to get admitted, not to mention a heroic 10+ day sail to get their on their catamaran). Love you guys 💖 Loni & Al

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Definitely not easy to come to NZ right now but I guess that's why it's so desirable, because it's a safe little island at the bottom of the world. We really hope you can come back!! Sending love back your way 💕

It's been way too long since I spent time in Christchurch. Can't wait to get back down. Congrats by the way on your 150k subscribers. Will you do a special Q&A video for the milestone as in the past?

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Hopefully you get to visit again soon! Thank you, we will definitely do something - haven't done a Q&A in a while so that's a great idea!

[@bmurphy2393]

I miss the wizard.

[@WhenAdventureKnox]

This video has just blown my mind... but over something that I'm a little embarrassed to admit! So, we get baby ducks in spring time, so I just assumed you guys also got baby ducks in spring. But seeing those duckings - is it based on the month rather than the season as it will be your autumn when its our spring! 😲

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Our punter, Pim did actually tell us that it was unusual to see ducklings at this time of year and their chances of survival were slim because of the cold 💔Hope that's not the case and they get to live their best lives!

[@hukshot]

thanks for reppin' my hometown Bulls, yo!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Hells yeah! I've still got such amazing memories of Jordan, Pippen & Rodman slaying back in the 90's

Sugarloaf is where the TV tower is. That's what that tower is. Hope you did the video tour up the top of the Gondola too but just didn't show it. It's pretty interesting and cool

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Really disappointed it's not a bakery 😂

[@karendoody4581]

Thanks for this... I've watched so many of your videos. You guys rock! Love ya guts! Were doing a month long trip to NZ in Jan - Feb next year and couldn't make up our minds to stay in Christchurch for either 2 or 3 days. What do you reccomend? I'm surprised you never did the zipline😊 Ps: Also after seeing one of your previous videos we decided to plan to stay in Rotorua for 4 nights as there's so much to do. Thank you 🙂👍

[@DanegerAndStacey]

That's SO exciting! It really depends on what else you want to do, if you've got limited time stick to 2 days in chch - you'll still be able to see and do heaps! Rotorua is awesome, 4 days is a great amount of time 🙌 Our friends just went and told us about a cafe called Eastwood that they loved, might be worth looking that up!

[@katajha831]

I would have enjoyed a look at the drink cabinet in the cookie store. I love soft drinks around the world. The watermelon tymbark in Poland so far is the winner. ;) One of the few things I got in Krakow that you 2 did not suggest.

[@megacinder]

Very cool to see what you both got up to in Christchurch! We've been watching your whole series and wondering why you traded out the RV for a car and rental in the city. Was it a pain to bring the RV into town?

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Sorry for the delay - we've been in South America. It was just cheaper to end the rental at that point, we've got friends in CHCH so we could stay with them or in the Airbnb a few nights and then it was easier to cruise around. It's a pretty well setup city for campers though so would have been fine

[@markdonnelly7225]

Hi I like your video

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Thanks!

[@christ512]

Oh noes Christchurch seems it would take more than 1 day to explore! I was thinking of keeping it short there (in my currently imaginary itinerary) since there's so many cute small towns to see! Question: would New Regent St be considered city center? Or if not where about is the city center in Christchurch?

[@DanegerAndStacey]

You could argue everywhere is worth spending more than one day but when you've got a packed itinerary you have to make sacrifices (we totally get that) Yeah New Regent Street is in the CBD - you're in the right place!

[@wilsoncarrascal8806]

would you suggest taking public transport around Christchurch? or drive? Im looking around where to park :D . Very informative content btw! thank you!

[@ynys_mon6928]

There’s a mountain (hill?) called Sugarloaf in South Wales, not far from the border with England. Might the NZ Sugarloaf have been named after that?

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Potentially? We havent had the chance to look any deeper into this!

[@godgamerconnorfrost6869]

On the gondola we got stuck as there were 90km winds they didn’t let us down so we had to walk down

[@DanegerAndStacey]

I'm glad I didnt read this before going up 😂 That must've been a loooong walk down

[@RM-ti8nf]

I feel sad that the owners of your air bnb are choosing to not have permanent tenants in there. Christchurch is desperately short of rental accommodation. I have to say that Riverside Market caters to those with bigger wallets. New Regent St too obviously 😲 Loved this video of my home town, you showed the nice parts 😉

When they just spent 2 billion on new motorways northern chch and west chch. The leaking raw sewage smell is soul destroying. This is where alot of homes are Government owned.
