The Christchurch Gondola is situated just 15 minutes from the inner city. Situated on the Port Hills, the Summit Station of the Gondola provides spectacular panoramic views from its elevation at 500 metres above sea level. Once at the top, there are lots to do and see in the summit complex. The Time Tunnel Ride experience is a must. This automated ride takes you through the smouldering depths of a volcano, a short voyage onboard a ship and ride through the early settlements of Lyttelton and Christchurch. If you are feeling active the summit station provides access to numerous walks along the Port Hills and provides amazing photo opportunities. For those wanting a leisurely pace, sit in our cafe over a light lunch or coffee and admire the views or visit later in the day for an amazing evening dining experience at Pinnacle Restaurant.
