Port Chalmers (Dunedin), New Zealand Port Reviews

Very pretty but prepare for cold weather.

Met family there. Went to beach and meal out.

We did a private excursion with Port to Port Cruises called Albatross, Wildlife, and Harbour Cruise that was incredible! We saw wild albatross, shags, seals, blue penguins, and all kinds of other birds. Rachel was a fantastic guide for this small group (10) and knew exactly where to go to spot the most animals and birds.

Small town, did not book an excursion. Walk around town

Lovely town, but will cost you $35 each return to get into Dunedin. Interestingly this was only $5 on the last cruise we did.

Nice enough town, but not a necessary stop.

All good - but a long way to get off the ship onto land

We took the Larnach Castle and City Tour. After disembarking in Port Chalmers, our driver took us on the costal road to Dunedin offering different views of the harbor. The city tour was informative and enjoyed the backdrop story of Larnach Castle.

Beautiful scenic views of the harbor, cure railway station building, nothing else that we experienced that stood out.
