Flying Kiwi Backpackers

About

On South Island, Flying Kiwi Backpackers is a local business. 140 Riccarton Road, Riccarton, Christchurch 8041 puts the hostel in Christchurch's Riccarton suburb, and a 4.4 out of 5 average across 92 reviews reflects its standing.

The hostel is reached from Queenstown, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura by road, with Christchurch itself the main gateway. As a hostel, it offers shared budget accommodation rather than hotel rooms, and the website at http://www.deansbush.co.nz/ carries its booking details. Five photographs accompany the listing.

Riccarton Road places the hostel within Christchurch, the largest city on South Island. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands.

Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast, which suits a traveller moving between the island's towns.
