About Dunedin

Dunedin, the Edinburgh of the South, is a charming city that exudes a unique Scottish charm amidst New Zealand's rugged landscape. Its standout attraction, the iconic Baldwin Street, is the world's steepest street, a must-climb for adventure-seekers. Travellers also love the city's quirky, artsy vibe, which is palpable in its vibrant galleries, street art, and eclectic cafes. The best time to visit Dunedin is during spring (September to November) when the city's gardens and botanical gardens are in full bloom. For first-timers, consider purchasing a Dunedin City Pass, which grants access to many of the city's top attractions, including the Octagon and Larnach Castle, making it easier to explore the city's highlights.
