I had such a wonderful time on this tour! I was super lucky enough to get the chance to be the only one on the tour on this particular day, so it was great to be able to take our time a little and ask all the questions I needed to ask. Russ was so friendly and has so much knowledge that he was able to share with me. I learnt so much on this tour, and have already told my husband that we have to go back and do a full-day tour with Russ! I had limited time in Dunedin, so this tour was exactly what I needed in order to see everything I wanted in such a short period of time. It didn't feel rushed either! Super happy. Thanks again, Russ! You're a legend!

We booked this tour while on a NZ Cruise with Princess Cruises, but booked this tour directly through the website and email rather than through the cruise ship. This was a great overall tour of Lanarch Castle and Dunedin city highlights. Russ was a pleasure to deal with from the very first email and discussion right through to the end of the tour. It was a very well organised small group (around 10 I think) with lots to see and do including the railway station, Lanarch Castle, Baldwin Street, University, Signal Hill and a number of lookouts overlooking Dunedin and the waterways. Russ was very informative offering great information throughout the tour and always happy to answer any questions. Only thing I would suggest is to make the decision early whether or not you want to tour inside Lanarch Castle or not. We decided to have some lunch then had to whisk around the inside of the castle with not a lot of extra time to look around the gardens. The time was a little limited at Lanarch to do inside castle, gardens and stop for lunch as well, because there was so much other stuff to see and do on the tour. Otherwise, the tour was jam packed with sites and things to see and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone coming into Port Chalmers/Dunedin as it gives you a great overall knowledge of the area. Excellent job Russ, very professional and keep up the great work.

This was such a great overview of the city and the Otago Peninsula! Our guide, Russ, kept us so engaged and interested in so many of the things and places that make Dunedin such a great place to visit! We saw so much and some we went back to visit! Loved his suggestions on other things to do and see while we ate here! This was just the 3 hour tour, the longer tour would be fantastic! Thanks Russ!!
