Welcome to City Walks
Dunedin is a special place; walk with us to appreciate its people, buildings and landscapes.

We offer two comprehensive guided heritage walks - the established Old Town Walk and the Otago University-focused Town & Gown Walk - and two shorter walks - the Breakfast Walk (includes breakfast!) and the Heritage Highlights Walk (whisky and haggis, anyone?). See our Walks page for details, and email us if you have any questions or would like to make a booking.

Testimonials
"Athol, we recently did a tour of the University with you which was really fascinating and completely enlightening. Your personable style makes you great company and we were extremely regretful that we did not have sufficient time to do more of your tours.. Thanks for your assistance in making our short holiday so memorable." (Nick & Margaret Trewhella, Essendon, Victoria)
