About this activity
Visit: 38 Orchard Road International Antarctic Centre, Christchurch 8053 New Zealand

The International Antarctic Centre is your destination for authentic, interactive fun and provides an exciting experience of Antarctica for visitors of all ages. It doesn’t matter whether you’re 2 or 92, there are hours of fun here for everyone.

You’ll visit ‘Antarctica’ the snow and ice experience, survive an Antarctic Storm, learn about life in modern day Antarctica and Scott Base, and hang out with Little Blue Penguins! There’s also the famously exciting Hagglund ride and an awesome simulated 4D cruise, Happy Feet 4D and lots more!

It’s quite possibly the closest you’ll get to Antarctica without mounting your own expedition!

We are located next to Christchurch International Airport and open every day of the year from 9am – 5.30pm.

Visiting the Antarctic Center is a little pricey but I would highly recommend you to visit it, especially if you have a friend with you to share the fun. I loved the hagglund ride! It was my highlight and was a great start to the visit of the Antarctic Center. The wind chill simulation was entertaining too, however, if you have experienced super cold temperatures before you won't be as impressed. I found the Antarctic Center educational and left the center with the idea of visiting the Antarctic one day.

We absolutely loved the tour, the only problem was that I booked through the shore excursion option not realising that Akaroa where our ship was docking was so far from Christchurch. However one of the tour people enabled us to go on their tour from Akaroa to the IAC just paying the coach fare and using our own entry ticket. So a big thumbs up to the great tourist relations in Akaroa.
