As two people who don’t drink much beer we absolutely loved this tour and recommend it to anyone and everyone. The tour itself was very informative and interesting and the tour guide was amazing! The tasters at the end were great and we got a great explanation about what we were actually tasting.

We were lucky with the weather so we were able to stand on the viewing platforms which I think makes for a good experience and better photo opportunities.

Enjoyable train trip

We have been meaning to go on this trip for a while. So to celebrate a year here in New Zealand we decided this was how we would mark the occasion and it was a great day. Dunedin Railway Station is a glorious starting point, beautiful architecture and friendly staff. The train journey itself took you through some very scenic and varied countryside and there was informative commentary along the way. A relaxing way to spend the afternoon.

What a great afternoon exploring the gorge by train. Comfortable seating with just the right amount of commentary. The scenery is beautiful and changing all the time. We travelled with a three yr old who slept on the way up.

Taieri Gorge Train

It was a beautifully sunny day to experience the train trip from Dunedin to Pukerangi and we were seated in one of the older carriages. There were fewer passengers than expected on the afternoon journey, but this was perfect for obtaining spectacular views from the decks at the rear of the carriage. The commentary was informative but the jokes were painfully lame. Highly recommended.

Can get chilly in winter even with airconditioning onboard, so wrap up warm if you're going in the colder months. I went on a beautiful day and got some interesting and entertaining commentary, there's food onboard too- wouldn't hurt the lady serving to smile a bit perhaps (of the ole' battle-axe variety) but was yum and reasonably priced. Recommend as a way to see the beautiful countryside, looked a bit boring for kids though.

The railway trails is definitely a must do in Dunedin and highly recommended for railway's fans. The duration is about 4 hrs return from Pukerangi by passing Wingatui Viaduct which is the largest iron structure. The journey was amazing and memorable. Get some local best beer or wine from the cafe on board and enjoy your journey!

We did the 4 hour return trip on a sunny Saturday in late August. There were beautiful vistas throughout the journey. We were seated in one of the lovely old carriages which added to the experience. The viaducts, bridges & tunnels were amazing engineering features. The Dunedin railway station is a beautiful building. All the staff we encountered were friendly & helpful. We would definitely recommend this train trip.

Birthday treat

This was a birthday treat for my daughter. She enjoyed it the leader was very good in telling us what and how chocolate was made but you weren't able to see any of the working of the factory. It would be good idea to put some windows in to be able to see what's goes on. I can understand that they cant have us walking around in the factory itself but to see into he kitchen or where they make the jaffa's would be good. Thanks Cadbury for all the wonderful years of making chocolate in Dunedin. We will miss you ?

Met our expectations

Lovely place to dine in especially with a banquet meal voucher via bookme, food was more than enough (2 course meal for 2 persons), serving size was quite fair (mains regularly cost around $27-32). Madam Woo met if not exceeded all our expectations (ambience, food and staff) although price is somewhat a expensive so the voucher is definitely a good deal!

A great time, very recommended.

Firstly, we were blessed with a fabulous day. That set everyone off in a good mood. Lucy picked us up at 9.30 by the Railway Station in the Honda people mover. This vehicle was clean, spacious and very comfortable and, as the day progressed and we got to know Lucy better, we realized what a lovely, knowledgeable and funny person she was. Nothing was too much of a problem for her and we were well catered for. Our trip included all that was described in the promotion and, in fact, a couple of extra items were added. We toured the salient sights of the city before venturing out to the Otago Peninsula. We did Larnach Castle and then the picturesque southern coast where we were treated by watching seals frolicking in the shallows. Although we did not go into the Royal Albatross park we did enter the Centre building and we did see an Albatross gracefully swooping across the headland. The scenery was amazing and we had a wonderful day. A final bonus was provided when Lucy dropped us off at our accommodation.
