Kia ora, Welcome!

Dunedin is a great wee city. Walk with us to discover its streetscapes, people and history. See our Walks page for details. Our News page has insights, deals, holiday hours and updates - plus details about our writing & publishing ventures. Interviews and articles about our books and tours sit in our About > Media Archive. Note our general Terms and conditions.

We value your feedback. This quote, from Sue & Lawrie (UK), who did our Old Town Walk in December 2023, we simply have to share:

“..thank you for showing us around Dunedin this morning. We had a great time and it was by far the best walking tour we have done anywhere on our travels through NZ and Australia.”

FAQs
How to book your City Walks tour?
Click on our Contact page. List your details and leave a message including the name of the tour you'd like to book, the tour date and the number of pax. We'll confirm your booking by reply email.

How do I pay?
Your guide, Athol, can accept cash payment, but card payment must be made to the Dunedin i-Site Visitor Centre, corner of George Street & The Octagon (email visitor.centre@dcc.govt.nz, phone +6434743790). Because the Old Town Walk starts at the i-Site, and The Funnel starts nearby at Dunedin Railway Station, payment for these tours can be made in person at the i-Site just before they start.

Are the routes easy to walk?
Yes. The Vogel Street Walk (1hour) is almost entirely on the flat. The Old Town Walk is longer (2hours, approx. 3kms) and flattish. Where steps are encountered, ramp or level-access options are available. Visually impaired pax and wheelchair users have enjoyed these walks, but carers must assist (free of charge). The Funnel takes 3hours, including stopovers, and is suitable only for independent and able-bodied walkers.

Will children enjoy these walks?
Yes! And we keep child prices low (just $5/ child) to encourage families along. But children are not welcome on The Funnel, as this walk includes a tour & tasting at a distillery, and may also include a visit to a brewery.

Where can I park?
Try one of the three off-street public carparking areas at either end of Dunedin Railway Station (the start point of The Funnel, the end point of the Old Town Walk, and just a 10min walk from the i-Site). Smaller vehicles may park in one of two carparking buildings in Moray Place. Metered, on-street, parking, for different time periods, is available in and around Vogel Street. Many of you will be able to walk from your accommodation, while Dunedin's bus hub is also close to the i-Site.

Yes please! Use the TripAdvisor review button on this home page, or leave a Google review via Google's City Walks business page. Thank you!
