Explore Dunedin on a half-day trip from Port Chalmers with a local guide. As a small group (max. 8 passengers) you will hear the fascinating story of Larnach Castle on a fully guided tour, keep an eye out for wildlife as you drive along the Otago Peninsula, and explore the historic character of the old town.
Meet your guide in Port Chalmers and learn of Dunedin's history as you head into the city. Visit Dunedin's most charming sights, taking in the sweeping spires, the magnificent Railway Station and strolling up the steepest street in the world.
Next, head out to the Otago Peninsula, known for its stunning scenery and wildlife. As you drive, learn why this area is known as the wildlife capital of New Zealand. Admire the sweeping views of the harbour, town and striking rural scenes.
Then, head to the only castle in the country: Larnach Castle. As you explore the castle, listen to your guide tell stories of its rich history before taking some time to explore the wonderful gardens, gift shop and cafe.
Take the scenic “high road” back to town, where you can admire the brilliant views of secluded beaches and the rugged coastline, before heading back to Port Chalmers.
