Great tour, marvellous view - We had fantastic weather. The view was marvellous, our guide was great. Small team , no rush. We took beautiful photos. Unfortunately we could not see many seals when we were at the shore.

Octagon Peninsula - A great tour round Dunedin and Otago Peninsula with a very informative guide. Thank-you Chris. Great communication before the tour and we were pick-up at the cruise ship in Port Chalmers. In a short time we managed to see just some of the many wonders of this beautiful place, thanks again, Well worth the money.

Dunedin - This tour is simply amazing. Dunedin is a gorgeous little place and well worth a visit. Rachel was very informative and went out of her way to ensure we seen all the marine mammals.

Great experience - Great experience. Pick up was really easy, they came to the cruise ship. Information provided during the tour was excellent and really interesting. Saw what was described. Would have liked to see more sea lions but we did see 2. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Beautiful scenery and cool sea lions - This was a great tour. We enjoyed seeing the sea lions in their native habitat, and the drive through the countryside was beautiful. The beach where we saw the sea lions was deserted except for us and that was nice. We had a good guide. I'm only giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the visit to the "steepest street in the world" and the iconic train station were rushed. The view of Baldwin St was from more than a block away and we were very strictly warned that there was NOT time to actually go there. Photos of the homes on this street look cool and I would have liked to have seen it; one reason I booked this tour. It shouldn't be hard to add 10-15 minutes more to the tour and do this, since it is listed as an attraction. Otherwise a beautiful day and scenic drive.

Not recommended - The tour advertised to see wildlife with sea lions on the adv but we didn’t see any. The driver was more interested in getting us back.
