Let’s discover Christchurch and nearby

This was our first trip to New Zealand and as only had the 5 days we wanted a good taster to get the most of what New Zealand had to offer. Our trip was amazing and although an issue with the rental car company, overall we had an amazing trip and can’t wait to come back and explore more. For this trip we added: Christchurch-Kaikōura-Blenheim-Hanmer springs. Kaikoura with its fresh seafood and pebble beaches. You have to experience the sound of these waves first hand. Then on to Blenheim and the Marlborough wine region. What else can I say. Best white wines in the planet 🤭 Then down to Hanmer springs to soak in the hot springs and some fresh mountain air. Finishing with a stop in Christchurch and the lovely city food and culture. This gave us a great mix of coastal scenery, wine valleys and hot spring mountain villages. If you have a plan to visit, then it’s definitely an easy decision and don’t put it off. Have so many photos and vlogs it’s impossible to share all. But trust me when I say, New Zealand has stunning beauty.
