There is no other place in the world where it is possible to fly from the centre of the city, in view of the ocean toward snow-capped mountains. Hot-air ballooning--the ultimate adventure and the best way to view Christchurch's three big attractions, the Southern Alps, Canterbury Plains and the Pacific Ocean. Rise with the sun and join a morning champagne flight--the entire trip takes up to four hours with one hour of actual flying time. A fleet of four balloons can fly up to 36 passengers at any one time. The company boasts an excellent safety record. Bookings: Daily departure is from parks within the city and times range from 4.30am (summer) to 7.30am (winter), weather permitting. Prices from NZD200.
