アイコニック・ショア・エクスカーション：アイコニック・ラーナック城ツアー

My wife and I went on this excursion after docking from Princess cruises at Dunedin, New Zealand. We were picked up right at the cruise port and proceeded to a van with 5 others. a nice small group. we toured through Dunedin and our guide was excellent. Her son joined us and we heard of his bagpiping. Turns out his brother also bagpipes and is the principal bagpiper for Larnoch Castle. The area was beautiful and we learned of the history of the area and Larnoch. We even had a chance to meet Margaret Barker, the owner of the castle. A very interesting tour that was made even better by the excellent guide and her son.

Loved this tour. Ann our guide was informative helpful and very personable. We toured the city visited a lookout and the steepest street in the world before visiting the castle and having a great lunch which isn’t included but was very good. Ann was so fantastic highly recommend this tour

We really enjoyed our excursion. Kim was an excellent tour guide and very accommodating. Our cruise ship disembarked later than expected, but Kim kindly waited for us and ensured that everyone was accounted for and no one was left behind. We saw amazing scenery across the Otago Peninsula and Larnarch Castle. I would recommend this tour to others.

Our pre-tour questions were all answered in a timely manner and we felt well prepared for the tour. Ann, our guide was phenomenal. She prepared a great plan for the day and executed it with perfection. She said she loved to talk and she provided excellent commentary all along the way. The castle tour that she led was excellent. Best of all, she was extremely attentive to my wife's dietary needs and provided great options.

We visited Dunedin while cruising and we prefer private tours versus cruise excursions. When slightly frustrated that 2 highly rated tour operators in Dunedin were booked, we were comforted that Iconic was the only other "friendly" competitor that they recommended. Ann with Iconic was both professional and personable. You can feel her love of the area and she made sure to include the best stops visitors should see. Plenty of time was available at each stop and we did not feel hurried. The highlight of this tour was Larnach Castle and included Ann as a personal guide. The optional time for lunch at the Castle decreased the need for bringing snacks or getting "hangry" toward the end. Using a smaller mini bus allowed for a much less expensive price than a private tour yet was far superior to a 40+ seater coach. When we had a change to our port departure time announced the day before arrival, Ann was aware and made sure to return us on time.

A fantastic tour , great value , Ann our tour guide had a real passion for the castle and Dunedin in general and this was evident as she shared stories and local knowledge that we would have missed with some of the larger tour operators. Thanks for a great Day Ann.

Our tour guide waiting in terminal building with a well marked sign 'Iconic Larnach castle'. Great day tour guide full of information along our journey. Beautiful railway station, interesting facts regarding uni accommodation, and the famous Baldwin st. Larnach castle was lovely our guide was well versed on the history of the building. I was recommended to do this tour.

This was the funnest tour! We saw so many interesting things and our tour guide, Ann, was AMAZING!!!

Kim was great, very knowledgeable and easy to get on with, we happened to be the only two on the tour this day due to a cruise ship not coming in. Highly recommend this tour, we chose to do a tour instead of hiring a rental car, definitely the way to go, thanks again Kim!

This tour was fabulous from start to finish. Highly recommend Ann & her customer service.. She was very knowledgeable of the history, surroundings, just a beautiful lady to have as a guide. Will be looking her up when I return next time. Thankyou Ann for a truly wonderful insight into everything. 🤗
