Summer or winter, glide along the tranquil Avon River in Christchurch, as a skilled punter in traditional Edwardian attire propels the vessel slowly along the water. The Avon River Punting tours are set aboard handcrafted flat bottomed boats, poled along by a punter from the platformed till at the rear end of the boat. An ideal group or family activity, Punting on the Avon is an Eco friendly way to relax and enjoy Christchurch from a different perspective.
