You might check out www.visit-dunedin.co.nz for info on tours. On our visit to Dunedin several years ago, we toured Larnach Castle and did a tour of the Cadbury Chocolate Factory. You can get info on that at: http://www.cadbury.co.nz/cadburyworld/visit.html

If you have a physically fit group, the Elm tour is very good. They will provide extra heavy jackets if you need them (and you might). It might take more time than you have.

I've also enjoyed the Cadbury tour, the Speights Brewery tour, and the Taieri Gorge train. The Otago museum is excellent if you need museums.

I would skip Lanarch castle, personally. It might be a big deal for New Zealand but if you're a world traveler it's less impressive.

Hi Carioca,
I was fascinated by the albatross colony. We didn't do a tour, just went on our own and it was great.

Hello
Thank you for your help.
We are actually in a cruise that will have a one day stop in Dunedin. A cruise has many advantages but limits what you see and when you see it. But in our circunstances it was the best choice.
We are a group of 10 brazilians, all seniors, and I am the one that is organizing our trip.I have read about Arthur´s Tour and Back to Nature tours. Elm tours is already fully booked for the day.Have you used one of this tours?Could give us some advice about which one to choose?
