Great way to experience Dunedin! - James, our guide, gave us a great day in Dunedin. We hit every spot on the itinerary. Highlights were climbing the steepest street in the world and exploring Larnach Castle and the grounds. James even made sure we had a table in the busy castle cafe. A terrific excursion with no worries that we wouldn’t make it back to the ship on time.
