Christchurch tram route map

The full circuit takes approximately 50 minutes to complete with trams operating every 10-20 minutes. There are 18 stops en route which the trams travel through in order.

There are plenty of highlights to explore: the Botanic Gardens, Tūranga, and Margaret Mahy Playground are must-visit spots for families; and the many retail stores and eateries at The Terrace, Riverside Market, SALT District, Arts Centre, and New Regent Street offer fantastic shopping and dining options for all. For frequent visitors, we recommend our great-value Tram & Gondola Annual Pass – perfect for locals!

Our Tramway Restaurant departs from Cathedral Junction at 7:30pm daily (excluding public holidays) and at 5pm on selected dates. Bookings are essential.

Child age is 5-15 years inclusive with infants under 5 years of age. Up to three children may ride free of charge per paying adult, and tickets can be purchased for $5 each for additional children.

Please note outside seats are not weatherproof. Children must be accompanied on the trams at all times by a paying adult. For safety reasons, we allow one adult to supervise up to five children or infants aged 15 years and under. As in any city street, you must keep children safe in traffic.

Two to three small, folded prams can be accommodated on board each of the larger trams (smaller trams are not able to accommodate prams so as not to block access to the aisles). Several trams also have pram hooks available to secure up to two prams to the exterior of the trams.

There are plenty of on-street and off-street parking options along the Tram route: see Christchurch City Council’s website for parking locations.

For those arriving by bus, the Christchurch Bus Interchange is a one-block walk from stops 5 and 8, and the Manchester Street Super Stop is a one-block walk from stop 1 in Cathedral Junction.
