Āmiki offers immersive inner‑city walking tours that share the rich culture of Ōtautahi Christchurch with visitors from near and far. Our guided journeys weave through laneways, gardens, and hidden squares—past historic buildings and well‑known landmarks—revealing stories and details often missed in everyday life. Along the way, we share the intertwined Māori and European whakapapa (history) that has shaped the city, offering perspectives rarely heard in traditional tours. As passionate storytellers and keen foodies, we blend history with the region’s vibrant kai (food) and inu (drink) scene, connecting guests with local flavours, people, and places. Each walk is designed to deepen your connection to Ōtautahi through culture, cuisine, and authentic storytelling.

The exclusive use of the Tesla model Y means you can have any number of people between 1 and 4 in your party, and the driver/guide are all yours for the duration of the tour! There's no waiting around for others to get on and off a bus and we go places that are difficult for larger vehicles to negotiate. If you have a particular passion or interest, we'll try our best to accommodate that during our tour. Flexibility is just one of our strengths. On our tour of the highlights of Christchurch, you'll see so much more, including some of the quirkier things, like the 'living' street art, labyrinth narrow alleys opening into hidden courtyards and historic buildings concealing modern secrets. We've been involved in domestic and international tourism for more than 30 years, serving guests from all walks of life. We know what it takes to look after our guests and make the most of the time you have available.
