The tour of the set was excellent. The place is a well oiled machine from ticket office to bus ride etc. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the movies and all other aspects . The movie set was awesome and the gardens amazing . Even if you’re not a movie buff the experience and sheer brilliance of PJ et al is totally worth it . Having a drink ( free) at the Green Dragon ???? was fantastic.

Graham from Leisure Tours picked four of us up from our hotel for a half day wine tour, visiting four wineries with lunch included. He was friendly, very knowledgeable and pointed out places of interest as he drove us to the Waipara Valley. We were very comfortable in his people mover with plenty of room for us all. Lunch at Waipara Springs Winery was delicious and the staff were friendly and helpful. The three other wineries had knowledgeable and friendly staff telling us all about their wines. We tasted several varieties and they were delicious. Graham had a good rapport with each winery and took us into each of the tasting rooms. We would certainly recommend this tour. We look forward to visiting Christchurch again and would contact Leisure Tours regarding the other tours they offer.

Break boundaries in your quest to conquer your fears with Rotorua Bungy. It seems so unnatural to jump off a perfectly good platform but that’s the exhilarating part.

Inhale, exhale and embrace the flight…….3,2,1 BUNGY!!!!

Exclusions: Food and drinks, Gratuities

We paid for 8 rides (249$) and did the freefall extreme, the swoop, agrojet and schweeb. The swoop was the best and great value for $40 each for a single ride. For $50 we got 3 videos and about 25 photos. Start with the easier ones and build up. Since my wife wanted to get the swoop over and done with early, the agrojet seemed a bit tame after it, but it's still a must do in adrenaline junky NZ. The kids loved the agrojet too. On the other side (and I have to be a bit picky to find some of the negatives) there was one person being trained and the girl who gave the instructions for the freefall felt very new, and they also lost one of my videos (which of course I didn't pay for), but otherwise we would come back (especially to try the V-force).
