Blenheim is a town in New Zealand about 309 km (192 mi) from Christchurch, approximately a four-hour drive. If you ever venture here, we recommend a trip to Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre, an aviation museum located along Aerodrome Road. This world-class museum will sit very well with travelers who appreciate World War aircraft and artifacts. Marlborough Museum is also worth a visit if you’re a big fan of local culture and heritage. For alcohol fanatics, you won’t want to miss out on a trip to Fromm Winery and Allan Scott Family Winemakers HQ. But before you start adding more places to your travel bucket list, let us help you find a place to stay. Read on for the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Blenheim, New Zealand.
