Canterbury, New Zealand Vacations, Tours and Luxury Travel Packages

This region features two dramatically different landscapes: the broad flat expanse of the Canterbury Plains and the alpine majesty of the Southern Alps. The main city is Christchurch, which has a distinctly English flavour; and to the south-east is lovely Banks Peninsula and the old French settlement of Akaroa. Here baguette and wine hold a slight edge over tea and scones. The Alps form the region's western boundary and are best explored in the vicinity of Mount Cook and Arthur's Pass National Parks, both areas of stunning natural beauty.

ROUTE 14 - MOUNT COOK TO CHRISTCHURCH

Mount Cook Village can be reached by bus or plane from Christchurch or Queenstown. For those driving from Christchurch, the quickest route (around 5 hours) is to follow SH1 south via Ashburton and then turn off onto SH79 via Fairlie and lakes Tekapo and Pukaki. More scenic however, is the route along state highways 79 and 72 as described here from Mount Cook. From Omarama at the end of Route 13 it is not much more than an hour's drive.
