Campervan Hire Christchurch

Christchurch is the best getaway South of New Zealand. It’s an ideal place to explore and have that family travel in your New Zealand Campervan hire. Much of the area is urbanized, very agricultural but with a lot of commercial establishments. You can drive in your Christchurch RV rental through the roads and tunnels through Port Hills, which connects the city to the port of Lyttelton. Christchurch was founded in 1850 by a Canterbury Association which was a British society. This society was affiliated with the Church of England. In fact, the city was named after Christ Church College at the University of Oxford, in England.

The city is quite known for having a lot of educational institutions. You can take the entire family on a drive in your New Zealand Motor home hire and see the following: the University of Canterbury established in 1873, and the Lincoln University founded in 1878 as the Canterbury Agricultural College in Canterbury.

To see Christchurch at its finest, drive around the city in your Christchurch Motor home rental and look for the weekend Arts Centre market, the Christchurch Cathedral, the Botanic Gardens and the International Antarctic Centre. Drive some more in the city in your New Zealand Campervan hire and visit the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna or the Waiwhetu which has an exhibit of New Zealand’s and other international art. The Canterbury Museum has a great collection and a real treat is for kids to dig for fossils, and take a closer look at tarantulas!

For some wildlife attractions, there is the Orana Park Reserve and Willowbank Wildlife Reserve. Drive over there in your Christchurch RV rental and see the kiwis. The kids would also enjoy some adventure and about the history of flight at the Air Force World. Why not head over there, too, in your New Zealand Campervan rental.

For some history on Maori culture, hop back to your New Zealand Campervan rental and the entire family can listen and see some information at the Nga Hau E Wha Marae.

Christchurch is also known as the Garden City so places like Hagley Park, Bottlelake Forest Park, Halswell Quarry, Victoria Park and Victoria Square are great places for the kids to enjoy. Hop out of your New Zealand RV rental and let the kids feed the ducks, or see the paddling pool. Some equipment in the Botanic Gardens can be used, too. Herbert Memorial shelter can be a good place to rest your feet. The place also has some displays that will teach kids how to make their own gardens at home. This will surely make the kids happy while they all hop back in to your New Zealand Campervan rental.

For some adult fun, there’s the Christchurch Casino where entertainment is 24 hours. So why not head out more to the city in your Christchurch RV rental and do some shopping and sample the region’s cuisine?
