Best tour---and best TOUR GUIDES--EVER! - We've taken many dozens of shore excursions, but this husband0wide tour leader couple, Kim and Greg, were the best we've ever had. Really knowledgeable, super friendly, and they made each of us feel this was a private tour just for us.

Best tour ever!! - Worth every penny! I’ve been on a lot of tours on a lot of cruises, but this was the best one ever. Kim and Greg were personable, informative, just great company all around. We spent lots of time in the van chatting about what life is like in New Zealand and learning lots of extra Information. So nice having a small group of only eight passengers, like a private tour.

Amazing tour to Lanarch Castle and Dunedin with Iconic Tours - What a wonderful tour by Iconic. Kim and Greg were prompt, well organised and informative, and built warm connections with our small group of 7 travellers. They adjusted the schedule so that we got to Lanarch Castle prior to the large bus tours, and gave us plenty of time to sightsee and lunch in Dunedin, as well as visiting many sights on the Otago Peninsula. Fantastic day. Highly recommend both the company and our guides.

If you want a quality Larnach and Dunedin tour, book this one ASAP! - Fantastic tour guides! I know there are cheaper tours out there, but you're really getting such a great deal with this one since it's a much smaller group. We did everything in the itinerary and more, plus to such high quality! Kim and Greg were superb together - kept us informed, entertained, and amazed! They planned the trip so well, we were able to beat the tour rush (which, believe me, makes all the difference in really immersing yourself in the history of each room - plus photos ops!).

Superb trip of Dunedin with a Scottish flavour - An excellent overview of Dunedin and surrounds. Ann and her gifted sons gave us a splendid tour. Ann’s commentary was exemplary and included many quirky facts. The tour was exceptionally well organised, unrushed and entertaining. Lunch was superb. Great photo opportunities, too. Highly recommended! Thank you for the Scottish flavour. Cathy

Skip the Cruise Ship excursion; book with Iconic instead - Ann was a terrific guide/host. We had plenty of scenic stops on the city tour and the van was cool and comfortable. Ann was especially knowledgeable about the caste and it’s gardens and was in every way gracious and friendly.

Interesting tour to castle - Our Larnach Castle Tour picked us up at the cruiseship port and have us a nice little your of the area. It was cool to go up the steepest street and we enjoyed seeing the castle. Unfortunately the castle was very crowded and that part of the your felt rushed. Our guide was excellent and overall we had a good time.
