@SydneyCruisingFamily Thank you for all the information you provided for this tour. We did indeed take the tour and all the normal stops were open on Easter. It was great experience, and our guide - John Wellington, was absolutely fabulous. He provided great commentary for the tour, and kept it all fun and interesting for all of us. The sights were unbelievable.
We also got some extra time on the tour, as the ship could not make port in Dunedin. Our tour was redirected to Christchurch to meet the ship the next day. Our tour guide, John, was fantastic with the issue, and arranged a more scenic ride to Christchurch, and great accommodations and dinner once we arrived. We also got a brief tour of Christchurch CBD prior to returning to the ship.
I just noticed you had a post in the Ovation Apr 15th repositioning thread. We are also on that cruise. Hope you are having a great time - we are. Perhaps we can meet up?
Thanks again!
