Timaru is one of the largest ports in New Zealand, and is a handy resting point on a South Island driving tour, being half way between Christchurch and Dunedin. Here are some of our favourite experiences in and around Timaru:
The Aigantighe (pronounced "egg and tie") is proud of its Scottish heritage. The name means “at home” and was founded by the Grant Family. Its reputation hails it the home of art in South Canterbury. This gallery which hosts 16 exhibitions a year are renowned for being provocative and inspirational. Take a stroll around the grounds and sculpture garden while you are there.
