★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stunning day to go up the Gondola and we weren't disappointed. The views were spectacular.. The snow capped mountains, the harbour and sea views were outstanding. Great gift shop, the Time Tunnel ride was really well done and the cafe had great food. A must do if visiting or even living in Christchurch.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An easy morning trip out from Christchurch. You can catch the bus which enters the carpark stops directly outside the entrance, which makes it very easy for a tourist.
Relatively cheap excursion and little overcast on my visit but overall worth a visit, the discovery ride at the top is a little odd but somewhat informative, and free with you gondola ticket.
Cafe was also nice, though I only had tea and a muffin, but had a nice view.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had never been on them before and I had gone in the Trams a week before and learned that you can get a year pass to both attractions so I had to get it. Was lots of fun and I enjoyed the trip. The view from the top is quite spectacular. I had some lunch at the top. I ordered the chicken burger with chips. It was really good.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing views, definitely a place to visit when the sky is clear. Great food and drinks available once you reach the top. And a free photo download, I wish we were able to choose the photo.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great views on a clear day, mornings better as there is no hase over Christchurch. Awesome views over lyttelton and harbour. Cafe at top with nice coffee. Also a souvenir shop. Take a warm jacket as can be very windy at top

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We liked it overall, the view is undoubtedly mind blowing, staffs members are nice and friendly, it wasn’t crowded when we were there which was nice. However we eventually missed the complementary discovery ride because we weren’t informed the whole site closes at 4:30 and the discovery ride closes at 4 until the last minute, I guess it’s mainly our own fault that we didn’t check the operation hours, we just didn’t expect it to close so early, but I feel we could use some better and earlier notifications, especially we just got up there at 3pm.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We spent a morning here, riding the gondola, enjoying the views from the observation deck, and having a quick lunch. There was a little ride you could do called Journey Through Time, telling a little of the history of Christchurch and Banks Peninsula. While it was interesting, we felt that the presentation did not discuss much of the Maori history, instead dwelling more significantly on the history of the European settlers who came 900-odd years later. It would have been nice to see a little more of the Maori history. There was also not adequately signed access for people with disabilities, and a lot of stairs in the absence of an elevator (if there was an elevator, we did not discover it). Other than these two things, it was a really great way to spend the morning and the views from the top are phenomenal. It's definitely worth a visit.
