Our driver was Simon. We had a great time feeding Donnie the North American horse and then went on to the farm to check out sheep shearing. The view from the farm to the ocean side is mesmerizing.
Delicious picnic lunch box is not only taste great but look beautiful. The wine tasting experience was also very 👌 good. If you don't know what to do, sign up this trip - I would recommend my friends and family when they are coming to Christchurch.
