The Best Tour - We booked online for the 10.30 tour from the port. There were 11 or 12 collected in the port and about the same number joined us in town. Our guide was Rob and he was superb in every way. Rob provided a great tour and pointed out interesting sights and facts as we toured. We took in all the great sights of Dunedin, including Baldwin Street, the Railway station, the Botanical Gardens etc in a leisurely and informative manner. Without doubt, this was the best tour that we took on our New Zealand cruise. Thank, Rob
