• 3Train Ride

  In the beginning was ok. As time went by was getting toooo long. Scenery was a lot of farmland and not so good sights.

• 4Long Journey

  The train was well prepared and a great example of equipment built many years ago. Unfortunately the trip was too long, over 5 hours. Seating had limited leg room making the journey uncomfortable. Scenery was good, however it was the same the entire journey. The city tour afterwards was useless. Too short and no opportunity to explore.

• 5A must do!

  This tour was well worth the time and expense. Our ship was late coming in, but the guide waited patiently for us at the wharf. We were driven to the train and took a scenic two hour ride through some of New Zealand's most beautiful scenery.. There is food and beverage available for purchase on the train. Afterwards, our guide Alberto and our driver Warren brought us around the town of Dunedin and showed us some interesting sites on the way back to our ship. My partner and I would definitely recommend this tour.

  Vicator canceled the tour. I rebooted with the railroad and it was great. Now to see if I get my money back.

• 1Only experienced a return trip

  This should be a round-trip train tour. However we only experienced a single trip due to the late arrival of the tour guide and the driver.

About Dunedin

Dunedin is a Scottish-founded university city on New Zealand's South Island, beside the Otago Peninsula and its albatrosses, penguins and seals.

Dunedin was founded in 1848 by Scottish settlers, and its name is the Gaelic form of Edinburgh. The Octagon, an eight-sided plaza at the centre, is ringed by St Paul's Cathedral and the town hall and holds a statue of Robert Burns. Victorian and Edwardian buildings of dark stone fill the streets, among them the Flemish-style railway station and the Gothic First Church. The University of Otago, the country's oldest, gives the city a student character.
