Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Larnach Castle & Gardens, Dunedin, Otago Region, South Island
Iconic Tours provide a fully guided small group tour of the Castle's interior. A key difference with this tour is the small group size. This allows us to navigate the Castle with ease, keeping away from the larger groups and fitting much more into the day.
New Zealand's infamous castle was built over a century ago by William Larnach high up on the hills of the Otago Peninsula. Experience breath-taking views along the Peninsula's high road with photo stops en-route to the Castle. Upon arrival it will be time for a light lunch in the Ballroom Cafe (at own cost). We reserve a table for our group and a variety of food is available at good prices.
After lunch, your guide will escort you throughout the entire castle, from the gun room below to the views from the turret and all the marvels in between. Get all the details as you explore the Larnach family’s legacy and hear the tale of their amazing story.
