Rare yellow-eyed penguins, fur seals and the world's only mainland albatross colony share residence in Dunedin, New Zealand's oldest city. When you're not watching wildlife, this South Island Otago Coast town also boasts impressive historic architecture from its days as a gold-rush mecca. Visit the 1906 Flemish Renaissance railway station or the country's largest center of higher learning, which resembles Glasgow University, thanks to the area's early Scottish settlers.

What a wonderful experience! Thank you to Cheryl and Kiara our amazing guides who were very friendly and helpful at reassuring myself a beginner rider as well as accommodating my daughter who is an experienced one. We took a beach ride with Tono and Mac along Aramoana. What beautiful horses we can’t wait to come back!! Kia Ora
