tip Local Tip

When you stay Rydges, you stay local, and there’s nothing quite like a truly local experience.

When visiting Christchurch, make sure you take the time to head north to Waipara and check out the local wines Canterbury has to offer. One of my favourite day trips is to head into Black Estate Winery for a light lunch and wine flight with the family. Only 50 minutes from the hotel, you can either make a day of it by exploring the other wineries on offer in the region or just spend the time at Black Estate before leisurely driving back into the city.

Be sure to tag us on social media @rydgeshotels to share your local experiences with us.
