All in Dunedin is a Dunedin, Otago-based tour operator offering guided sightseeing experiences that highlight the city's architecture, history and coastal scenery.
The Half-Day Guided Tour: Castle, Coast & City visits the world’s steepest street and the ornate Dunedin Railway Station, includes a guided tour of Larnach Castle with time in the castle gardens, and returns via scenic coastal views along the Otago Peninsula. The Dunedin City, Sights and Peninsula Full Day Private Tour is an eight-hour private charter led by a local expert, combining Dunedin city highlights with the natural environment and vistas of the Otago Peninsula. Both experiences focus on well-known local landmarks — the steep street, historic railway station and Larnach Castle — and provide guided interpretation of their significance. Tours are presented as curated itineraries tailored to showcase architecture, photographic stops and coastal panoramas.
The full-day product offers an extended, private charter format designed for a comprehensive exploration of the region, while the half-day tour provides a shorter introduction to Dunedin’s signature sights. All descriptions here reflect the business’s current tour products and the specific attractions included in each itinerary. Booking details, exact inclusions and up-to-date availability are provided in the tour product descriptions and by the operator's official booking information channels on request when necessary.
