WITH CRUISE SHIP VISITORS IN MIND, it is designed to look into the city and see where Dunedin’s people, work, play and live. With an excellent, well researched commentary and wonderful photographic opportunities along the way, the tour aims to explore areas of the city beyond those most visitors would normally be expected to experience.
