FAQ:
What month did we travel? July/August (Winter)
What rental company did we go through? Britz! The key is to pick-up and drop off in Christchurch. We also didn’t pay the insurance premiums through the company. Instead, we booked it through a 3rd party provider. My final tip, is to book it through a comparison website to get the best deal... for example Motorhome Republic! To be exact, our booking was $452.25 NZD for 9 days... what a winter special!
Where do you park at night? Some places you can free camp it, others you can't. We did a bit of both. However, on really cold nights we stayed at sites so we could use our extra portable heater which runs on power!!

Christchurch, New Zealand. History, Climate etc
Christchurch is the largest city in the South Island of New Zealand and the seat of the Canterbury Region. Christchurch is known as the Garden City. Christchurch is mostly flat, so many people get around on bicycles. Christchurch is third-most populous city behind Auckland and Wellington in New Zealand.
LOCATION
The Christchurch urban area lies on the South Island's east coast, just north of Banks Peninsula. The Avon River flows through the centre of the city, with an urban park located along its banks. the river was named after the River Avon in Scotland by Deans brothers whose farm was the earliest European settlement in the area.
HISTORY
Archaeological evidence found in a cave at Redcliffs in 1876 has indicated that the Christchurch area was first settled by moa-hunting tribes about 1250 CE. Christchurch became a city by Royal Charter on 31 July 1856, making it officially the oldest established city in New Zealand. The name of Christchurch was agreed on at the first meeting of the Canterbury Association on 27 March 1848. It was suggested by founder John Robert Godley, whose alma mater was Christ Church, Oxford.
POPULATION
Christchurch is third-most populous city behind Auckland and Wellington in New Zealand.
CLIMATE
Christchurch has a temperate oceanic climate with a mild summer, cool winter, and regular moderate rainfall. It has mean daily maximum air temperatures of 22.5 °C in January and 11.3 °C in July. Summer in the city is mostly warm but is often moderated by a sea breeze from the Northeast. In winter it is common for the temperature to fall below 0 °C (32 °F) at night. Snowfalls occur on average three times per year.
COMMUNICATION
Christchurch is served by Christchurch International Airport and by buses (local and long-distance) and trains. Christchurch International Airport is a major transit airport for international and domestic travellers. The local bus service, known as Metro, is provided by Environment Canterbury. Christchurch has an extensive bus network with bus routes serving most areas of the city and satellite towns. The car, however, remains the dominant form of transport in the city, as with the rest of New Zealand. Historically, Christchurch has been known as New Zealand's cycling city. The central city has very flat terrain and the Christchurch City Council has established a network of cycle lanes and paths
ECONOMY
The agricultural industry has always been the economic core of Christchurch. New Zealand's leading agribusiness, is based in Christchurch. In recent years, regional agriculture has diversified, with a thriving wine industry and beginnings of new horticulture industries such as olive production and processing. Deer farming has led to new processing using antlers for Asian medicine and aphrodisiacs. The high quality local wine in particular has increased the appeal of Canterbury and Christchurch to tourists.
Christchurch is the second largest manufacturing centre in New Zealand behind Auckland, the sector being the second largest contributor to the local economy, In the last few decades, technology-based industries have sprung up in Christchurch.
SPECIALITY
1- Christchurch has one of the highest-quality water supplies in the world, with its water rated among the purest and cleanest in the world.
2- The International Antarctic Centre provides both base facilities and a museum and visitor centre focused upon current Antarctic activities. The United States Navy and United States Air National Guard, augmented by the New Zealand and Australian air forces, use Christchurch Airport as the take-off point for the main supply route to McMurdo and Scott Bases in Antarctica.

I went on the tour bus to see Christchurch city, obviously heavily affected by earthquakes but it was good to see rebuilding and redesign of the city.

The rebuild of the central city is finally happening quickly! There's lots to see and new places opening up every couple weeks. Almost all of the buildings in this video did not exist a few years ago. I didn't film in the Little High eatery but its a must visit place!

New Zealand, Christchurch | The perfect city????????????????????????
Christchurch, is the largest city in the South Island of New Zealand. Flat-bottomed punts glide on the Avon River, which meanders through the city centre. On its banks are cycling paths, the green expanse of Hagley Park and Christchurch Botanic Gardens. In 2010 and 2011, earthquakes destroyed many of the historic centre's stone-built buildings.
