Dunedin Car Rental
Edinburgh of the South
Dunedin and the Otago Peninsula, home of the world's only mainland albatross breeding colony.
It may seem a strange claim to fame but wildlife lovers find this a unique thing about Dunedin and the beautiful Otago Peninsula. You can easily spend a day cruising around the Otago Peninsula and a good starting point is the Royal Albatross Centre.
If you really want to make the most of what Dunedin has to offer you would be well advised to utilise Dunedin Car rental.
In the centre of the city is the Octagon and as the name suggests it's an octagonal shaped city centre. Anywhere else it would be a square! On one side of the Octagon you'll find a statue of Scottish poet Robbie Burns and on the other, a magnificent fountain that plays to music nightly.
The city of Dunedin is proud of its Scottish heritage, it's known as the 'Edinburgh of the South'. And if you don't know how to best attack this city, your Dunedin rental car will ensure you get to see the many sights of Dunedin.
 Dunedin is home to the University of Otago, New Zealand's oldest university and one of New Zealand's primary student cities. The city of Dunedin has a magnificent museum and some wonderful heritage buildings which are very much a part of its historic past, Olveton Homestead and the central Railway Station (pictured right) to mention but two.
Dunedin is home to Speights Brewery, brewers of one of New Zealand's most famous beers and located directly over the well from which the pure water comes to brew the beer. Just down the road is the Cadbury's chocolate factory where a tour is a treat both for the eyes and the taste buds. 
Your journey to Tairoa Head will take you along the beautiful Peninsula Road where you'll have a harbour panorama and a view of the city of Dunedin and Port Chalmers. Also located on the Peninsula Road at the beautiful Glenfalloch Woodland Gardens and the top of the Peninsula you'll find the historic Larnach's Castle (right).
