Great experience and on a sunny day too!
I went a bit earlier but they accommodated me readily. I took my son as a guest (with extra fee) and we enjoyed the experience. It's nice to do this before your flight to your next destination since it's already in the airport. The staff are as awesome as Dunedin's news.
Great team, friendly and helpful, perfect day, lots of fun.
It was very well spent 20 minutes of my life. Wishing you the same
It was more than I had expected I arrived an hour early and took me right then and there so no waiting top service very friendly staff my pilot was awesome I would definitely recommend this to anyone what an experience
Amazing experience. Daniel was great and really put me at ease. As I completed the take off he threw out the phrase "mate, your flying a plane!" Highly recommend.
We had a great time in this Dunedin City, Wildlife, and Scenery Tour. Thanks Lucy Young for such an amazing trip! We were expecting that it will be a join in tour in a bus or van but we were surprised when Lucy picked us up in her new Odyssey with just another tourist. So it felt like a private tour. Lucy gave us commentary and information about the places we visited and was flexible in time especially in Sandfly Bay and Tunnel Beach, because of the trek. I highly recommend this tour. ?? Cheers! ??
We really enjoyed our day. Nicely maintained course with excellent views of the coast. The golf pro is very friendly and the clubhouse is nice too.
Ryan was a great instructor who was very friendly and made us feel safe and comfortable. We really enjoyed our lesson!!
Our instructor was great!! My partner was very hesitant as he's not the biggest fan of the water but at the end of the lesson we couldn't get him out! Would definitely recommend over and over. Will definitely be back :) thanks again Chloe
Tim was a great, patient teacher and a lot of fun. He came to assist each student individually throughout the lesson. This was our first time surfing and we will definitely be doing it again!
What a terrific wave!
The guys are very friendly and the equipament awsome.
A fantastic experience!
I managed to stand up, although only very briefly.
The wheather was not good at the moment when I just arrived in the place. But, Dominic who is the instructor of the surfing gave me big welcome then we had some talk. This calm down my tension which was caused by thinking about first learning. Then we went out to the beach. Dominic taught me the few academic lessons then we plunge into the water. 1.5 lesson was gone so faster than nomal time runing. Everything was fantastic and feburous. I'll visit there again soon.
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip up and down the Taieri Gorge from Dunedin. What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Everything ran to time and all the staff were so polite and informative. There is an excellent commentary and as the carriage was not full we were able to swap sides to get the best views when we needed to. We enjoyed standing at the viewing areas at the end of each carriage for soe of the journey. There was a buffet car on board and prices were reasonable. There is time to stretch your legs at scheduled stops along the way. Everything was very clean, including the loos!
Wonderful half day seeing some amazing sights. The train itself was beautiful and let you feel like you were back in time. Fantastic renovation of the carriages.
The tour was friendly,informative and fun. This tour is a must do if you are ever in Dunedin. The History and Future Plans are interesting and it makes you feel like part of the story. After you get to have a decent sized taste of all the great beers that Speight's has to offer in the friendliest bar with the best atmosphere you could imagine, watching old movies and talking to the whistling, happy tour guide was a bonus. I would recommend this tour to anyone!!
Awesome tours and awesome hospitality!
Having taken this tour 3 years ago before I moved to NZ I was pleasantly surprised at the changes. We took the 4pm tour (my visiting parents, boyfriend and I) we were started on the tour with a video screen and small intro into Speights. We then took the lift to the 8th floor and began walking our way down, the tour had changes from 3 years ago with production videos showing how the beer is made and you know that every tour guide discusses different content, I was a little sad we didn't step out onto the Speights bridge but my parents who had never done the tour before seemed impressed enough. The tasting room has had a refurb since I last came and now you are able to help yourself to try as little or as much as you like in the allocated time, was great compared to the tour guide last time struggling to keep up with demand. Is still an awesome place to visit and I will reccomend to others when they come to the South Island as well.
Well run tour. Very informative and interactive. Good size group and good tasting at the end of the tour
The tour was very informative. It was good since we also learned about Otago’s history and how the brewery’s growth are interrelated. The process of making beer was explained thoroughly. The beer tasting was the highlight of the tour!
Absolutely fantastic tour! Informative, friendly and interesting, I would highly recommend this tour.
I don’t drink beer but did it to humour my husband. We both loved the tour. Ron was a great guide.
Ken took us through the brewing process and history of the brewery. He was most informative and willing to answer questions. The tour finished with tasting samples of the Speights range. These were tasted over and over due to their generosity.
Amazing tour to go on.. A Must do Tour when in Dunedin...so enjoyable for all ages...my kids even loved it with their rhubarb and lemonade drink...The tasting room is the best and loved the LPA drink...You will definitely walk out with a big fat smile and a skip in your walk...Big Thanx to Abby she was an amazing tour guide...
Very interesting to do this tour of Speight’s factory. The guide is very interesting, and we can drink some beers after the tour!
Great value for money and beer!
I enjoyed this tour.The guide was a bundle of knowledge, regarding the history of this site and the importance of this brewery to the country. There are 225 stairs, most of which are negotiated on the down.A tutorial on how the beer is made, was given as we moved through the tour. Ending in a free sampling of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages. This tour is quite expensive, but not to be missed.
Done this tour once before bought my parents with me for this time very informative history of the brewery with an a refreshing drink session at the conclusion 😎😎😎
