Itinerary

  • The Octagon(Pass by)

    Admission Ticket Free
    Starting the tour here, learn about the amazing buildings that survive in the center of town. It survives by good luck rather than good planning.
  • Dunedin Railway Station

    10 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    The Dunedin Railway Station is the second most photographed building in the southern hemisphere, second to the Sydney Opera House. We go inside the foyer of the station with its Royal Doulton tiled walls and mosaic floor made with approximately half a million pieces. She's currently under works so covered with scaffolding, however they've kindly printed a picture of the building on the outside!
  • Toitu Otago Settlers Museum

    Passing Toitu we see Josephine, the first locomotive in Otago and hear its story - how it came here, how it was nearly lost to history and how it survived.

    At Queens Gardens the tale is told of the first Scottish settlers, how they were welcomed by the Kai Tahu Maori, how they dealt with rain and mud, and why it was all worthwhile.
