About the Hokitika Day Tour from Christchurch
Journey west through the breathtaking Southern Alps to the wild and artistic town of Hokitika – a coastal gem known for its pounamu (greenstone), local art, and dramatic natural landscapes. This HAULA® Private Shuttle tour offers a comfortable, scenic escape from Christchurch, with plenty of opportunities to explore and unwind.
Your adventure begins with a stunning drive through Arthur’s Pass National Park, where alpine peaks, native forests, and dramatic viaducts set the tone for the day. Once in Hokitika, you’ll have time to wander the charming township, visit greenstone carving studios, glassblowers, and artisan shops, or relax by the rugged West Coast beach.
The tour is flexible and fully customisable – you can add stops at Devil’s Punchbowl Falls, Otira Gorge Lookout, or even take a stroll along the Hokitika Gorge if time allows.
Whether you’re seeking culture, nature, or a bit of both, this day tour blends authentic West Coast experiences with the convenience and comfort of a private shuttle.
