  • Akaroa is located on the Banks Peninsula, 40km southeast of Christchurch, New Zealand. This place has a beautiful landscape formed by the erosion of volcanos.
    The drive starts at central Christchurch, the largest city on the south island, heads to Akaroa, and then goes on Summit Rd. to see the breathtaking views of Akaroa.

    Thanks for this. Very appreciated. I'm housebound some days because of bad health. This has been uplifting.

    Very beautiful region close to Christchurch, nice views of the mountains and the sea. Great to be able to explore places so far away from where I live with your videos, thanks a lot, greetings from a road-tripper from Germany!

    We had the pleasure to be paid to house sit for 4 weeks in Le Bons bay on the 4th of June 2012 . On the 6th of June we had 200+ mil of snow . My wife had never seen snow before . We spent most of the 4 weeks exploring in and around Akaroa and had to drive the Summit road to get to the house . One early morning we left at 4 am to drive to MT. Hutt ski resort . The Summit road was covered in ice and snow grit which made for a slow , scary drive . We also saw the destruction caused by the earth quake in Christchurch and surrounding areas . The home owners let us use their Suzuki SX4 to sight see and being 4x4 made it a great car in the snow... The missus took over 4500 photos and videos . We also saw the Hector dolphins in Akaroa harbor on a cruise . NZ sure is a beautiful place ...

    So pleased I came across your video and watched n waited till you reached Akaroa and coming down that Hill and turning the corner looking at The Speights Beer Sign. Imagine my surprise to that building because back late 1989 hubby n I with friends spent the weekend in that cute Hotel in this very spot - fairly sure it was called Seychelles Hotel a very beautiful spot and so charming too. We were leasing The Royal George Hotel cnr St Asaph n Fitzgerald avenue, in ChCh which I believe has gone now. Is there any remains of this old hotel still there. Never ever went back moved to Australia 6 years later. Still here. Thanks for the great trip Akaroa has certainly modernised itself.

    You have the knack to pick up the best locations. I've heard about Akaroa but didn't know it is this breathtaking.
    On Summit Road at 2.16:02, the lake or the bay on left, would love to know more about it.
    Thanks again

    Hi thanks so much for sharing, I was lucky enough to drive this road back in 16, but I would be very grateful if you could tell me did you punch in satnav to get the directions? or is this the only way to get to Akaroa, I just want to make sure this is the road I took, I missed so much doing the driving and watching your video I got to see so much more of this amazing country, thanks again, Happy Aussie.

      Hi, I don't use car navigation and this should be the major route to Akaroa.

    • @lobstermash
      @lobstermash 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, this is it - it is possible to go around through the centre of the peninsula and come down into Akaroa from the other side, but from Christchurch, this is the way.
      Aha - the ride in this video takes you through Akaroa and up again the other side to the Summit Rd - that's the other route I meant. Much further.

    Enjoyed this - I live in Christchurch and have often driven this road but I do like to be driven. One suggestion - when the main view is alongside the road and not straight ahead, is it possible to rig a camera to the side window? Probably too much hassle - I was thinking of the side view of the Port Hills as you come around on the flat land before turning in to the Little River valley.

    Olá Amigo ! Não tem o que falar sobre as paisagens e a qualidade do vídeo! Muito bom se puder diga com que câmera filmou ?

    The first 5 minutes are so melancholy. All new building, under 13 years old. You couldn't tell where you where until you saw a street sign. It not until 5 minutes in that you start seeing pre-earthquake buildings.

    Other drives that want to call themselves scenic will need to answer to this one

    One can only assume you arrived in Akaroa. A long video to watch yet not see the destination in question.

    • @user-ez3sj8hm8i

      Actually the route goes through Akaroa about 1.5 hrs into the video. I believe the route map at the start showed this. There’s that saying: “it’s the journey, not the destination”, but you do get to see Akaroa on the way
