2.00Avoid this tour. We have traveled globally; this is the worst tour ever. For our small group, the guide was not prepared enough. First, he said he had to "borrow" a small bus; it was old, uncomfortable, noisy, with broken air conditioning, and air did not circulate well. At our meeting spot, other tours had modern buses. Not sure what happened here. One attendee had to slide open the emergency window to give us air. Second, there were too many brief stops (about 10-20 minutes) long where we would need to exit the bus to catch a view, then return promptly. He kept nagging us about returning to the bus on time to keep on track, but why do this? At one stop, he expected us to pick up our lunch on our own and see 3 blocks in 20 minutes while he stayed in the bus. We weren't able to find and order food in time so we were without food the whole day.. He was unfazed and didn't seem to care how we felt or even ask if we got food. The bus was noisy that it was very difficult to hear him at times. One stop was odd because the bus was parked very close to the edge of the road on a mountain cliff which was not safe getting in and out of the bus. In retrospect, I regret signing up for this tour because the house tour was not very interesting and too long. The castle was not really a castle, but a rundown refuge that was ugly and run down. I would not recommend this tour - look elsewhere for a tour that is fun, informative and memorable.
Great sights, but not with this company again.

2.00The trip with Fantail Tours was a huge disappointment for me and absolutely not recommended. There was no employee on site at the specified meeting point at 9:30 a.m. After I asked at the cruise terminal, I was informed that the group had already left. It was only after I contacted the company via WhatsApp that it was even checked if anyone else was waiting for me. Such an unprofessional level of organization is not acceptable for a booked excursion. In addition, program items were simply shortened or omitted. In the Botanic Garden there was no announced hike, but only a very short stay of less than 20 minutes. The visit to the castle lasted only about 50 minutes, although according to the program 1.5 hours were scheduled. In addition, the castle was hardly photographable by parked buses. The tour, advertised as a “small group”, was also not true. A group of 21 people has nothing to do with a small group for me. Overall, neither organization nor performance is correct compared to the description. My clear recommendation: In Dunedin, it’s probably cheaper, more flexible and less stressful to take a taxi on your own.

5.00We visited Dunedin, New Zealand while on a cruise. It was a fantastic tour. Pick up and drop off was very easy. Our tour guide Asta from Fantails picked us up from the cruise terminal. It was a small group of 4 people on the tour. Our tour guide Asta was very knowledgeable and she gave us a lot of information about Dunedin rich history. Scenic drives overlooking the city were stunning. We went to the Baldwin Street, steepest street in the world. Inside tours of the Olveston historic house with its rich history and inside tour of Larnach Castle with its beautiful gardens were our favorite. We also made short stops at University of Otago, Dunedin Railway Station, Dunedin Botanic Garden and First Church of Otago. It was a great tour, we spent a lovely and a memorable day with Asta. We highly recommend this tour.
Excellent guide and very complete tour
