private flexible

Published on Feb, 2025

Great experience. they were there at the cruise ship port to pick us up. mindful of time and returned us on time. we were four adults. she was very flexible as we wanted to make us stop at a Starbucks to get a mug because we collect them from around the world.. she was accommodating for that. if we wanted to spend longer or anything. she was extremely accommodating because it was a private tour with only our group. she knew facts and some history. not very much though. we would ask her some questions and she didn't know. so it would be helpful if maybe she had a little more research about the area or animals, etc. The albatross place was fabulous. we saw them and everything is great so I would recommend this

Great value tour from Port Chalmers throughout Dunedin

Published on Feb, 2025

Had a great tour of Dunedin and the surrounding coastline with YiLi of Skyline tours. I was able to get spectacular photos of rugged cliffs with breathtaking coves and beaches. YiLi brought us to a number of stops that provided me with photo ops with Seals and even caught a blue penguin peaking out from its burrow mid day. Overall we were impressed with every carefully chosen stop and had great value with this tour and our guide YiLi!

Great driver on curvy roads!

Published on Feb, 2025

Our guide Lee was excellent. Just the right of information without overload! Great driver through narrow and windy roads. Suggested a great place for quick stop for fish and chips that was both delicious and decently priced. The backseat of the SUV car was a little tight for three adults going around a lot of curves, but that was minor. Plenty of water was provided!

Dunedin visit

Published on Jan, 2025

Lots of interesting sights around Dunedin planned and seen on this tour. Especially the Royal Albatross centre. Good local knowledge and commentary!

Dunedin for 4 on a budget

Published on Jan, 2025

We had a wonderful time. Saw so many sights and our guide was so responsive to what we wanted to see. It was so fun! Our guide new a lot about the history as well as places to experience. We saw the world's steepest street, got to go out on the beach with a fur seal, and saw some great architecture as well.
