Kia Ora! It's almost Spring in Christchurch but we are still getting the odd southerly polar blast - daffodils and spring blossoms are starting to appear and we hope the warmer weather isn't too far away! We are receiving a lot of enquiries for motorhomes and accommodation for the coming summer months - we would urge anyone wanting to travel between October and March to firm up bookings as soon as possible!

All the very best from the Team at GINZ.com

GINZ is pleased to promote Wanaka Sightseeing Tours, a specialist movie location tour company which also operates food and wine and luxury tours in the South Island. Wanaka and Canterbury Sightseeing are 'Lord of the Rings' and 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' location experts. Their Through the Wardrobe Tour is a full day tour which begins with a pick up at your hotel in Christchurch and takes you across Canterbury towards 'Narnia' to the forest where Aslan takes his lonely walk to the Stone Table and the field where the final battle took place. Of course you get to wear fur coats, eat Turkish delight and experience the weapons, props and even the script in the location!

Picnic lunch and afternoon tea is included and rates are NZ$290 adult and $200 per child. Wanaka Sightseeing also operate a half day helicopter tour of the sites, extensive Lord of the Rings Tours day and overnight tours plus wine and food tours in both Canterbury and Otago.

Australia News

The state of Western Australia is land mass 10 times the size of Italy, 5 times the size of Texas and includes almost 1/3 of Australia's landmass. The climate is great and there is a vast range of natural attractions to explore. In the Kimberley region in the North, tropical summer monsoon rains have carved out amazing landforms, gorges and waterfalls and Broome on the coast has Cable Beach, a 22 km long white sand beach ranked the third most beautiful in the world.

Western Australia is also known for it's spring wildflower season where fields are completely blanketed by richly coloured wildflowers between July and October. From the modern and relaxed capital of Perth, you can drive or take a tour to attractions such as the moonlike landscape of the Pinnacles Desert, the heritage listed Monkey Mia bay where you can hand feed dolphins and to the South of Perth, the Margaret River wine growing area. Pinnacle Tours operate full and half day tours of the Pinnacles Desert, Perth, Freemantle and the Margaret River. GINZ can assist with accommodation in Perth and Broome as well as flights within Australia and rental cars in Western Australia.
