View on Google MapsHolly and Rob are a dynamic duo. We had a private water taxi trip with Rob who then handed us off to his wife Holly who gave us so much history as we drove to the castle. They are both pleasant and professional. We had a great day and highly recommend them to anyone traveling to Dunedin.
This was a fabulous experience. Rob arrived at the ferry on time to pick us up despite the fact he had had trouble with his boat. Really reliable All worked like clockwork and this was such a wonderful way to get to Lanarch Castle without sitting in a tour bus for hours
Great experience checking out Larnach Castle, Dunedin and the Otago Peninsula via open-air water taxi. Loved the views and stories along the way. Rob and Frankie had the logistics down pat with all the various itineraries they had going amongst multiple passengers. Wonderful experience!

Larnach Castle is a beautiful place. Tour with water taxi allows nice views to the landscape of the bay.
From beginning to end this experience far exceeded our expectations. Rob and Holly were amazing and couldn't do enough for us, providing service above and beyond with our pick-up and drop off. The ferry trip with Rob was both informative and entertaining. Our shuttle to and from the castle with Rob's beautiful wife Holly and their lovely driver Frankie was also very informative, Holly had a wealth of local knowledge and both were so warm and friendly, we would definitely book with them again and recommend their service without hesitation. Thanks guys, Ricky and Suzy 💞
Husband and wife are the owners of the company. Took a quick boat ride across bay with the husband. Once across, took shuttle with his wife to the castle who gave us a bit of background on the castle and the area. The castle is on your own for two hours. Beautiful grounds, views and interesting history of the castle. Then a short shuttle back and boat across the bay into the city for the afternoon which was lovely!
We enjoyed the cruise to the shuttle. The bus ride to the castle was short and enjoyable. The castle and grounds were lovely. The cruise ride to Dunedin went well for drop off. We then explored Dunedin on our own and took the local bus #14 (for $3) back to our cruise ship. Lovely day! Thank you
Highly recommend this company. Very friendly and efficient. We had to change our tour date and start time due to our ship arrival time changing but it was done with no effort on our part. Rob and Holly are very friendly and efficient.
Great friendly reliable service from a family run company also the best way to see Dunedin and surrounds. Highly recommended
The husband and wife team, who ferried us in the boat, followed by a van ride to Larnach Castle could not have organized our visit any better! Loved it and they are wonderful people! Highly recommend as an option if you’re on a cruise ship like I was. You can walk to the pick up point from the port.
