A tour with Gregor is like no other. Emerging business award finalist, Tales From Darkest Dunedin and Gregor Campbell, respected historian and expert story teller has been uncovering forgotten events and people in Dunedin's history. He has been featured in newspapers for his finds and recently on the cover of New Zealand Heritage Magazine for his cemetery tours. Gregor is particularly interested in colonial history, the exchanges between Māori Kāi Tahu, the Scottish and the everyday people that came to make a life here, for better or for worse. And now he's your tour guide!
Gregor's stories of murder, shipwrecks, discovery, heroes and villains are exclusive to Tales From Darkest Dunedin and weave together to give a greater picture of our city and the lives that brought it to where it is today.

Wow, what a fascinating tour. It gave me a whole new outlook on the city and its history and past inhabitants. I remain intrigued...my tour guide was passionate about the city's history and all the beauty that it has to offer, even if it does have some dark tales. Do this tour, you will not be disappointed. And, he knows some good eating places

Dunedin with Gregor was very informative. Gregor grew up in Dunedin and pointed out multiple sites and had a story for all of them and more. Easy pick up from our cruise ship at Port Chalmers with clear signs at the terminal. Nothing was too much trouble with a delicious lunch with views of Dunedin . There was good communication with the tour operator for pick up. Very enjoyable day all round. Would highly recommend d this tour.

I had an absolutely unforgettable experience with Greg the other day! I happened to be the only guest on the tour, but he still gave me the full experience — spending the entire day showing me around and passionately explaining every detail about the city’s heritage and history. His knowledge was truly impressive — not just facts, but also the stories, culture, and meaning behind each site. What touched me most was his enthusiasm and professionalism. Even though it was a one-person tour, Greg made it feel so alive and engaging that I felt like I was traveling with a friend who loves and understands the city deeply. Thanks to his guidance, I learned so much and saw the city from a whole new perspective. The weather was perfect that day, and combined with his warm energy, I felt incredibly happy and inspired throughout the journey. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend Greg and his team — truly world-class service, passion, and knowledge! 🌞✨

Start to finish the best tour ever! Gregor was so accommodating, kind, and knowledgeable. He offered to take us wherever we wanted to go, not knowing we're to go we asked him to lead us on our journey of discovery and he did. A number of times I asked him to stop so I could take photos, he did stop every time I asked. He provided a lot of history and told us little know facts about the places we visited. I titled the review based on the fact the cruise ships only give you a limited number of tours to choose from, I know this route was the best, best price, best your, best guide.

Tales from Darkest Dunedin was a brilliant tour. We visited all of the highlights of Dunedin whilst learning the history of the town. The tour group was nice and small, meaning we could spend time at each landmark learning more without the need to push through a load of people. Lunch was absolutely stunning too. Thank you Gregor!
