I totally enjoyed a relaxing ride around the botanic gardens. Faye knows a lot about the different plants and communicated interesting facts and features of the gardens. The knee blanket was a total surprise but cosy to ride with and the 15min stop for exploration was very handy because I took some amazing photos of the gardens in that time. This is a wonderful way to explore deeper into the plants and gardens and find out more than you would normally just walking around. The gardens are totally beautiful to enjoy on your ride as well!
Thank you for joining us for a Botanic Gardens Tour! We are glad you enjoyed your time on board, and will pass on your thanks to driver Faye. Thank you for taking the time to share your review as well as the great photos you took of the gardens!
We did this tour while in Christchurch as I was on a knee scooter with a plaster cast and unable to do long distances under my own steam. Neil was our driver and was very helpful getting me onto the caterpillar and making us both comfortable with blankets. Neil really made the tour memorable with his great knowledge of the flora, fauna and history of the gardens. He was also great with the young children on the tour, making it interesting for them as well as the adults.Thanks Neil for a great tour!

We really appreciated getting an overview of the gardens without having to walk!
We noted areas that we particularly liked and revisited on foot later.
The guide was pleasant and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour.
We are pleased you enjoyed your time on our Botanic Gardens Tour and that you were able to explore the parts of the gardens that had interested you later - we definitely recommend this to our customers if they have the time! Thank you for recommending our attraction.
The Caterpillar tour was very good! The tram driver narrated as we went, pointing out the different groupings and types of plants and also provided interesting background/history of the gardens. Stopped frequency for some great pictures and helps to narrow down where you want to revisit on your own later!
Thank you for joining our Botanic Gardens Tour! We are glad you enjoyed the tour and had time to explore the gardens yourself afterwards. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback!
A good idea to make a garden overview . The lady driver was very helpful and her commentary was very informative.
Thank you for joining us, and we are happy you enjoyed your Botanic Gardens Tour!
It was chilly and wet when we went on this tour with Neil. A pleasant surprise when he offered us knee-blankets. His commentary about the history of the garden and in particular about the flowers, shrubs and trees was excellent. What a joy to be taken around this stunning garden by a fellow-plant-lover. He knows the botanical names of hundreds of plants, where they came from, and how they have been used in the great English gardens. He is also keen to learn; I am sure he has read up on the kidney and king ferns after I pointer them out.
