Dunedin, New Zealand

Dunedin New Zealand

New Zealand is a great place to visit and is popular with travellers of all tastes. Dunedin on the New Zealand South Island is an excellent destination for nature and history buffs. Considered the best-preserved Edwardian city in the whole of the Southern Hemisphere, it's also the second largest city on the South Island. Approximately four hours' drive from Queenstown, it's also known for glorious, near-perfect Dunedin weather.

Once you've settled into your accommodation in Dunedin, consult a local map for the whereabouts of your first stop. The Otago Museum is one of the most-visited attractions in Dunedin New Zealand and houses some beautiful Maori carvings. It's also near the University of Otago. The very first university in New Zealand, the school was founded in 1869, and is also home to the only School of Physical Education in the whole of Australasia.

Other Dunedin attractions include the Otago Peninsula or the Settler's Museum. A Dunedin restaurant is almost an attraction in itself, too - be sure to try Bell Pepper Blues, which is probably the best-rated restaurant in the whole area.

Dunedin travel is made easier by using a rental car or perhaps even a New Zealand travel guide. You can use the city as a base to visit Christchurch or nearby Oamaru, either solo or with a New Zealand tour.

At the end of a day of exploring, relax at your Dunedin hotel to get ready to do it all again tomorrow - Dunedin NZ is full of attractions to keep you busy for days.
