Today's first stop is the International Antarctic Center, a winner of the New Zealand Tourism Board award for "Best Visitor Attraction". The Antarctic Center has recreated the atmosphere of Antarctica and provides an interactive exciting experience of this Southern Australia and South Pacific which very few people have the opportunity to visit first hand.
You will then move onto Willowbank Wildlife Reserve where you can explore the farmyard, feed the animals and see a wide variety of birds and animals both native and introduced to New Zealand including the Kiwi in its natural habitat, Eels, Keas, Deer and Possum.
As you travel back to the central city enjoy a ride on the historic Christchurch Tram with its 2.5km track through the central city. The 25 minute ride includes a guide to the city's 'must see' attractions and a full on-board commentary.
