DUNEDIN

Dunedin is a beautiful place to visit. We encourage you to stay for a few days after the conference and experience some of the things we have to offer, both within Dunedin City and around the region.
Even better, why not bring family or friends and let them explore the city while you learn, share and forge friendships at the conference?

DUNEDIN TOURIST ATTRACTIONS (delegate rates)
Blue Penguins
The 1.5 hour tours are focused on the world's smallest penguins returning home each evening. Watch as they waddle past just a couple of metres away. The tour also focuses on cultural aspects of this significant site and includes a "behind the scenes" look at the reserve. Guests get to see the habitat of the birds, see other wildlife, and learn about the flora of the area. On nights when the skies are clear we often extend the tour to include stargazing. Our tour is based on our values of Manaakitanga (hospitality-we want to make this one of the most memorable experiences for our guests) and Kaitiakitanga (guardianship of the land and wildlife).
