See the main sights of inner city Dunedin while hear the grim stories behind them. If you failed history because it was too boring, this is the tour for you.
Ōtepoti/Dunedin was settled by Free Church Presbyterians in 1848. They worked hard and went to church on Sunday. The gold rush in 1861 brought with it a completely different population to the one first envisioned - a much more lively and less law abiding one. Your guides have spent years curating true stories of crime and murder from Dunedin's grim past. Starting at Toitū Settler's Museum, walk through the centre of town while you see and hear the secrets from 19thC and 20th Century Dunedin brought back to life, if only temporarily. Tour is approximately an hour and a half. We'll begin briefly with how and why Dunedin was settled then head into town ending a few blocks down George Street.
