A lovely afternoon spent on the river on a perfect winter day. Lots of historic information provided by our punter about Christchurch. It is only about half an hour and easily located. Pop into the Spanish restaurant nearby for a meal after too!

Punting on the Avon was a highlight of
Trip to Christchurch. The staff are very friendly and our guide- Rhys was just the best. Informative, funny and able to answer all of our questions.
The experience went by so fast. The boats were clean, the water was crystal clear and the views we say were beautiful.
All of the spring flowers are starting to bloom and along with the ducks and swans, it was all just perfect.
Thanks again to Rhys- you were great!

What a lovely way to spend an afternoon! I didn't really know much about the history of the area or punting but our guide was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. Golden hour on the river (in late afternoon) was a beautiful time to see the surrounding gardens. Very relaxing and perfect for romantics as well.

Dear Pam and Paulette,

We did not reserve this ahead of time as the weather was too unpredictable but rather walked over on a lovely day and got one soon afterward. Maybe we were lucky... They filled our boat and added a higher chair on the backside of the boat for those who might have mobility issues. Lucky us as we're in our 70's and I have a ton of replacement parts. It kept us off of the floor of the boat which would have been incredibly hard to manage. I did not ask for this, they just did it. My only suggestion is elongate the time on the river a bit. 30 minutes is quite fast...charge more if you like just make it longer.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're delighted that your spontaneous visit was enjoyable and that we were able to accommodate your needs by providing an additional chair on the boat. Ensuring our guests have a comfortable and enjoyable experience is always our top priority.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the duration of the river ride. We understand that 30 minutes may seem short, especially when you're having a great time. However, punting is quite physically demanding for our staff, and completing eight rides a day, each involving 30 minutes of pushing a full boat against the current, can be quite taxing. Your feedback helps us in our continuous effort to provide a memorable experience for all our guests.
We look forward to the opportunity to welcome you back for another leisurely ride on the river soon!

Thanks to a flight delay, I had to change my booking. It was dealt with swiftly - thank you so much.
The tour was prompt and they offered blankets for the chilly Christchurch morning. A big shout out to our guide Mark who was informative and had the good ‘dad jokes’. If you are in Christchurch you cannot miss this.

Pleasant half hour on a punt in the parklands surrounding the city. No issues with the craft, staff or trip, just a bit overpriced for what it was

Thank you for taking the time to give us this review. We are very glad to hear you enjoyed your experience and service with our Punters. I am sorry to hear you find this overpriced, as we feel that the experience offers good value for money as a unique guided tour (the only commercial punt ride in New Zealand) which also offers live commentary.

Our Park branch is our main departure point and is located at the Antigua Boatsheds at 2 Cambridge Terrace. This branch is a 5 minute walk from the tram stop opposite the Canterbury Museum.
Our punt rides are return, so begin and end at the same place.
Bookings are essential for Punting on the Avon, and we highly recommend booking in advance to avoid long waits. You can contact our reservations staff on 03 366 0337 or by email to schedule a booking time (please note that Trip Advisor does not allow us to include website URLs or email addresses in our responses, but you can find our email address by searching for Punting on the Avon online).
Alternatively you can choose to book on arrival, but please note that there may be a wait of several hours involved on a busy day, and we cannot guarantee availability for guests arriving to book nearer the end of the day.

كُتب بتاريخ 18 يناير 2017
Thank you for your enquiry.
Officially we cannot endorse alcohol on board the punts as they do travel through a liquor ban zone during the ride.

Hi there, what happens if the weather is too bad and we have pre-paid?
كُتب بتاريخ 20 أكتوبر 2016
Hi there
Thank you for your enquiry.
Punting on the Avon still operates in most weather: the exceptions to this is when the river floods or when the wind is too strong to safely operate. In both these circumstances you would be eligible for a refund from the agency you purchased your tickets from.
If Punting is still open but you would prefer not to ride due to inclement weather, you may contact Punting to cancel or reschedule your ride. Please note that you may not receive a refund for your tickets depending on the amount of notice given prior to your ride's scheduled departure time, and a cancellation fee may apply at the agency you purchased your tickets from.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.
Kind regards,
Emma

Is a monetary tip expected afterwards?
كُتب بتاريخ 19 فبراير 2016
Thank you for your enquiry, and apologies for the delay in replying.
Tipping is not customary in New Zealand, so while staff are grateful to receive any tips these are in no way expected.
If you feel that you would like to give a tip for exceptional service, you are welcome to do so at your discretion.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.
Kind regards,
Emma

This may seem a redundant question, but I would like to know if there is a specific time allocated for the punting ride, or is it an "open" ticket which allows one to punt at any time within 9am-6pm (December)?
كُتب بتاريخ 26 أكتوبر 2015
Thank you for your enquiry.
Punting tickets are valid for one punt ride any time during our operating hours of 9:00am until 6:00pm in summer or 10:00am until 4:00pm in winter. We highly recommend scheduling a booking time for punt rides.
You can choose to make a booking in advance so that you can arrive at whichever site you have booked in at just prior to your departure time. Bookings can be made with our Punting reservations staff by phone (03 366 0337) or by email (please see our website for our contact email address).
Otherwise, you are welcome to turn up on the day to hop on the next available ride (please note that this can involve a wait time of several hours, and we cannot guarantee that there will be seats available if you arrive without a booking later in the day).
Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.
Kind regards,
Emma

Hi All, we are going to New Zealand in April without much time spent to walk around Christchurch. However we would want to go for the Avon River Punting as it is one of the attractions. I understand that there are two options, one depart from the park, one depart from the city. I cannot decide which is a better option. It would be great if you can recommend us.
Also, can we walk in and buy the ticket as there are only four of us and we are travelling in the non-peak season.
كُتب بتاريخ 12 مارس 2015
Thank you for your enquiry.
Our two Punting branches pass very different areas of the city, so it is really up to you (and what you want to see) as to which branch you would prefer to depart from.
The Park branch departs from the historic Antigua Boatsheds and passes through the Botanic Gardens. This is a very quiet and scenic route.
The City branch passes through the heart of the city centre, and offers a unique view of the various areas that are being rebuilt. This area is a lot busier than the park, but the City branch offers a more diverse view.
Please note that bookings are highly recommended for Punting. You are welcome to walk in and book a ride if you wish to, but please note there may be a wait time of 1-2 hours involved. If you would like to book on the day, you are welcome to call our reservations staff on 03 366 0337 and they will be happy to make a booking for you.
We hope to see you on the river soon.
Kind regards,
Emma
