About Christchurch

Let’s start this off with a fun fact about New Zealand’s Christchurch; did you know it’s the largest city in the country’s South Island? Probably not? Do you care? Probably not, so let’s get onto more relevant topics about the city where urban regeneration and creativity radiate.

You’ll find about twenty backpacker hostels scattered throughout the city and its outer suburbs, with the majority, centrally located making transportation a breeze. Christchurch hostels portray an easy-going and relaxed atmosphere which makes making new mates all the easier on your travels. Whether you’re on a tight budget or looking to splash out a little and treat yourself we’re sure one of our hostels in Christchurch will fit your requirements.

Christchurch’s great public transport allows you to have one less thing to worry about when trying to find a hostel suitable for your, and potentially, your friends’ needs. Whatever tickles your fancy, a hostel close to the beach or a hostel inland further out from the city centre we’re confident you’ll love your Christchurch hostel and time in this vibrant and energetic city.

You won’t run out of things to do in New Zealand. A great way to get familiar and explore the city’s hidden gems is to hire a bike or join a guided bike tour. For the nature lovers out there, you’ll be in flower heaven at the Botanic Gardens which is located riverside and sits on 30 (yes 30!) hectares. If you’re into museums take a trip to the Canterbury Museum to get your fix. For the romantics out there, opt to go punting on the Avon and enjoy scenic views with a ride in a small, flat-bottomed boat steered by a dressed-up guide.

The main and cheapest form of public transport used throughout New Zealand’s town and cities are the buses. Depending on where your hostel is located you can explore the town on foot, or catch a taxi or bus into town. If you’re planning on travelling around New Zealand, consider hiring a camper van to allow maximum flexibility, or opt for one of the many hop-on-hop-off buses rotating their way around the islands.
