deec Posted September 29, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2017 We will be in Christchurch for one day on Viking Ocean Ship on Saturday, February 3. the ship has an excursion to the "Southern Alps" which promise beautiful visits and stunning lakes unfortunately it is SOLD OUT....I have been unsuccessful in locating a tour guide for a private excursion. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrYellowDuck Posted October 1, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I recently booked a private charter with Tour South Limited from Akaroa; they were $690 NZ for 6+ hours return to Akaroa in a van that can take 6 pax - they will apparently take you anywhere you want to go although we chose one of the standard options. We've not tried them yet and so can't comment on how good they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare erewhon Posted October 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 2, 2017 For Christchurch your ship will either anchor at Akaroa (tender port) or at Lyttelton. Do you know which applies for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Kruzer Posted October 2, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 2, 2017 For Christchurch your ship will either anchor at Akaroa (tender port) or at Lyttelton.Do you know which applies for you? According to the itinerary ,your ship will be at Lyttleton. Not being a mega ship it can berth at one of the smaller wharves.. https://www.vikingcruises.com.au/oceans/world-cruise.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
