Departing Lyttelton, this tour follows the story of Harry Al and his grand vision to create a splendid walking tour from Christchurch to Akaroa in the early 1900s. Although Harry died before the track could be completed, the section from Christchurch to Packhorse Hut captures the stunning scenery and dramatic landscape of Banks Peninsula and Lyttleton Harbour.

After being collected from the port, your tour travels along the stunning coastal road to Governors Bay, before you drive up Dyers Pass to the stop at the Sign of the Kiwi.

Following the Sign of the Kiwi it's a short drive along Summit Road to the Sign of the Bellbird, where your guide will provide morning tea. After morning tea your tour continues along the summit for another 15 minutes before reaching Gebbies Pass.

An 11-kilometer hike will then comprise your return journey, during which you will stop at Packhorse Hut for lunch. After completing the walk, the return journey follows the coastal road around Lyttleton Harbour, passing through the small settlement of Governors Bay before heading back to the port in Lyttelton.
