First Church, Dunedin.

Bruce & Robyn from Queensland, Australia, recently enjoyed an Old Town Walk. Hoping to leave a review, they simply posted the following text to me. It seemed to me that the best course of action was to publish their comments verbatim:

“We arrived in Dunedin on Saturday afternoon and wanted a walking tour of the city to get orientated. Our research indicated that Athol and his ‘Old Town Walk’ were just what we wanted but Athol does not usually work on Sundays.

But we keep asking all the way from Queensland, Australia and Athol finally agreed to take just the two of us on our requested tour. And it was exactly what we’d hoped for. Athol was a very knowledgeable local guide who was able to share his wealth of personal research and also answer our specific questions of interest. He shared the history of Dunedin, linking in key local identities, unique architecture, history, boom and bust, and of course most importantly in this city, religion.

My wife and I strongly recommend this tour as the perfect orientating starting excursion into Dunedin.”

Editor’s note: I’ve published the above comments - with permission - not to prompt a flurry of Sunday walks, but to acknowledge Bruce and Robyn’s sincerity, and to illustrate that we try as best we can to accommodate our customers’ wishes.
