Cheap bus trip ($4.00) to the Gondola. Aprrox 10min ride up, though you do get advised that it can take longer depending on conditions. Great all around views, good cafe and helpful staff.
Recently, as a part of the Celebrity Solstice cruise ship shore excursion, we visited the Christchurch Goldola ride. This takes guests to the top of Mount Cavendish in the Heathcote Valley in the Port Hills. What an outstanding view all around this affords guests. Also...More
Amazing views at the top and the whole ride up as well. Great café at the top to get something to eat and a gift shop as well. You can even walk outside and get a picture with the beautiful mountain backdrop. Highly recommend.

If you have the time, it's a good place to visit and get the view from the top angle. A good place for great view.

This is a pleasant scenic ride but in comparison to other gondola rides in the world it is over too soon. There are great views over Queenstown from the top and lots of hair raising activities to enjoy such as the luge and bungy jump....More
The views are stunning, even on a cloudy day. We spent hours on top, intending to walk but as it was very windy and there was lots to see anyway we just stayed around the summit station.
