The drive through Dunedin with the highlights such as the train station was very informative. The views of the Otago peninsula were amazing. A big bonus to see New Zealand sea lions and many native birds. The geography of this area of NZ is similar to that of Scotland. Our guide Chris was absolutely fantastic. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed this tour the most. Small group and clean coach. The driver Chris was informative and a good driver. The best part was going for the beach walk. It was absolutely gorgeous. The sea lions cooperated for the photos. I would have loved to sit on that beach for a picnic!!

Great way to see the nature and natural beauty of Dunedin's Otago peninsula. Chris was an excellent tour guide. Some independent shopping/strolling time in Dunedin would have been nice.
