Dunedin & Otago Peninsula
- Duration
- 3 Days
- Prices From:
- US$ 437
Begin in Dunedin, settled by the Scottish and renowned as the “Edinburgh of the South”. Explore the highlights of the town then tour the Otago Peninsula including the Albatross Centre.
Thanks to the discovery of nearby gold in 1861, Dunedin was New Zealand’s most populated city until 1900. It’s now a university town proud of its strong Scottish heritage, and an ideal jump off point for this 3 day tour of wildlife-rich Otago Peninsula, including the Albatross Centre. Consider an optional Speights Brewery tour with dinner on day 2.
