Great historic tram with excellent conductors with great narratives! We were very pleased with the experience! Also there are very good staff to get you boarded.

This service was the best way to get around the city - especially if you are not 100% mobile. You can get on and off as often as you like and the track covers the majority of the city area. A great was to support the city and the re-building program - which is still ongoing after the 2011 earthquake.

Our reservation somehow got lost between the booking office and the punting shed but Reese quickly and efficiently got us rescheduled at our original time so we didn’t have to miss anything. He was a very gracious and polite young man and we appreciated his help, thank you Reese!!!

I only write Honest reviews. Seriously, don't waste your money or valuable vacation time on this overpriced streetcar ride. After trying to hear the commentary for half the ride, myself & 3 other tourists told the conductor to Turn up the speaker. After hearing excuses & lip from the conductor, they finally turned up the volume. For 40NZ dollars, you're better off to put your money toward a new pair of sneakers then to waste it on this!! Truth

Riding on a vintage tram is fun and the gentlemen who narrate and drive the tram are great. Our issue was that there just wasn’t that much to see and we could have covered the same sights relatively quickly on foot. If you have mobility problems, this could be a good option for seeing the city.

Bought the Activities Pass which included the Gondola, Punting on the Avon and HoHo tram so a great way to get to see it all and a nice way to get around the city. Took the gondola ride first on the way into the city from the cruise ship; cloudy but still gorgeous views and lots of history on the walls at the top. Got on the HoHo and cruised around town easily, especially with lots of construction going on. We were able to city sites including Botanical Gardens and the Cardboard Church. Punting on the Avon was also well worth it. Beautiful, peaceful and punting operators were informative and engaging. Just be sure to read the details as the gondola is a 20 minute bus ride away from the city.

We paid €40 each (free for under 15’s) and got a full day pass to all the trams which ran throughout the day till early evening. We got on the oldest tram and did a full loop of the city first to get our bearings and an idea of the best places to get off at. We rode three different teams by the end of the day all different and very historic. The drivers give you a great insight to the City as you go round and are very helpful with information and helping you on and off. Fully recommend this.

Sorry, I hate to give bad reviews but this hop-on tram was a terrible experience on Saturday for all 4 members of my traveling group. The driver conductor and the ticket assistant talked at the same time, the speaker in back was hideously loud, and no one in my 4 person group could tell which “sites”the conductor was pointing out! Now let’s talk about the mobs of passengers packed in…wowser…it was so loud…so chaotic… and cost $40NZ each for this little noisy “tram” that really didn’t cover that much territory or educate us as to what we were seeing! :( Gonna write it up to a Saturday when a cruise ship was in town

A great way to see the city, with many stopping off points along the route. Our driver gave an excellent commentary throughout our trip. I would recommend this trip.

We had so much fun with the hop on hop off tram in Christchurch. Elliott was the attendant on first part of the tour and then he became our driver. This tour was very popular in the early afternoon, after we took the gondola up for amazing views and had lunch. (… 0n a two activity ticket.) Because the tram was so popular, there were no seats. We chose to stand. Elliott was so sweet and gave tidbits of information along the tour. Elliott also went out of his way to help everyone feel welcome. We did end up with wonderful seats part way through our journey. We went around the whole city one time. And then used the hop on hop off on other trams. This is easy to do and the trams are frequent. You can tell Elliott loves his job and the city. We learned so much about the city and its people from this tour that we too have come to love the city of ChristChurch in New Zealand. Thank you.

Super fun way to get an intro to the heart of the city. The tram operators give a running description of the city, the buildings, and point out both things that haven't yet recovered from the earthquakes, and the new buildings that have risen since then (though not too tall -- they don't allow anything over 8 stories now!). Nice way to spend an hour or so. After you make the loop, go around again, get off at the Riverside Market for great food choices -- a busy and bustling food hall with so many choices, it's hard to decide.

Elliot was amazing. The whole experience was wonderful. I booked on line and instead of paying 48 for 2 people I was charged in us dollars for the cost of 84 even though it stipulated 24 per person nz. That's not very good at all

Great trip, great value and very informative. Commentary from driver Elliott was really comprehensive peppered with some real gems and great humour. Sorry there were some rude passengers who called loudly to each other throughout his commentary..fortunately we were right at the front. Visits great key places to hop off and back on again.

This was such a nice relaxing experience to do in the city. The guide was very informative and friendly. Also good to see a girl doing it, girl power haha.

Very enjoyable and all the conductors and drivers were so friendly, helpful and knowledgable. Even waited for us as they could see us running for the tram.
