Cruise ships dock in Lyttelton, which is 8 miles from Christchurch. Our ship personnel said to get there you had to take a taxi at $40 to $60 each way or take a shore excursion. Luckily a representative from the area came on board when we arrived and told us about the city bus for $4.20 each way. The bus leaves directly outside the security area if the pier. Plus the bus terminal in Christchurch was amazing. Modern and clean and easy to navigate. From there it is a short walk to Cathedral Square. Worth a visit for its modern architecture and new technology is the Turanga Central Library. Check out the touch-screen wall for searching photographs in the collection. It is also an easy walk to the Botanic Gardens. We especially liked the New Zealand native plant section and the rose garden. There are a lot of cool sculptures and fountains in the gardens. There is a free museum right at the entrance to the botanic gardens but we chose to be outdoors.

It was rainy, so I only walked out a little way and could see a steep hill to the Time Station I wanted to see, so I didn't go,

Took the free shuttle into Lyttelton and were dropped of at the bottom of the hill. We went back to the same spot to catch the shuttle back to the ship learning that the drop off and pick up point is in the middle of town.
