Answer 2

Its around 4 hours.....faster if you drive faster and the traffic is ok.

You can get there by car....ie drive, bus is longer as they stop more but I don;t think you can take the train anymore so those are your 2 options.

Answer 3

It's about 4 hours by car.  But allow time for coffee stops as there are some cute small cities along the way.  Oamaru is particularly beautiful with all the whitestone buildings.  Then there's the Temuka pottery outlet shop which is on the route you'll take to get from Dunedin to Christchurch.

It's a pleasant drive with not too many boring straight roads, the most boring part being between Ashburton and Christchurch.

It may pay to check the AA site www.aa.co.nz for road closings out of Dunedin if the weather is bad.

Answer 4

3 and a half to four hours by car
