Reviews
"We had an amazing tour with Chris last week. Picked us up from cruise port, saw tremendous sites, including great beach with tons of sea lions. Super informative, tour couldn't have been any nicer."
"Took a great 7-hour tour (Otago Peninsula and Dunedin) as part of a port visit to Port Chalmers on a cruise ship. 16 people in a small shuttle bus. Brian played both driver and tour guide, and he was excellent, one of the best guides we have had. He is a local and also works as a naturalist as his main job. He was on time for pickup (actually we left 5 minutes early) and got us back right at 7 hours as indicated. He gave great overviews, answered many questions, and guided walks / drives through some beautiful natural spots. This tour was significantly cheaper than similar ship tours and was a much nicer small size in a smaller vehicle. Five stars, great time!"
"Had a wonderful day in Port Chalmers. Great tour with the amazing views from signal Hill, seeing the steepest street, train station, scenic road to see plenty of birds and seals at Allans beach. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting this part of new zealand"
"Oli was fantastic! He is very knowledgeable. He planned our time very well. We actually had a little extra time, so he took us on a nice hike through a beautiful tree canopy grove. The penguin hospital was the highlight of our trip! (I just LOVE penguins!) We got up very close to them. It was super interesting to learn about how those wonderful people rehabilitate the penguins. Highly recommend this tour."
"We took the Bays, Beaches and Views of Dunedin tour today, Nov 17, our tour guide was Mark. We are on a Celebrity ship but decided to do this independent excursion. Mark is very knowledgeable and talked during the whole 3 hour tour. I highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed."
