Creator's Key Takeaways

What I loved about this brewery tour is how visual it is. You're literally walking through the brewery's life story and it makes you appreciate how much tradition goes into every glass they pour.

Between the views, the history, and the architecture, it's easy to see why Lawrence Castle is one of the most absolute must-sea spots in Deneden.

It's the perfect end to an incredible day in Deneden.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't bring coffee cups or food onto the pier due to New Zealand's strict biosecurity rules.
Arrive early for the magic carpet sailaway to get a good spot.
Be mindful of narrow spiral stairs at Larnach Castle.

YouTube Video Description

Join us for an unforgettable full day in Dunedin, New Zealand — packed with history, scenery, tastings, and one incredible castle experience. We kick things off at Speight’s Brewery with a behind-the-scenes tour and tasting, learning how one of New Zealand’s most iconic beers is made. From there, we wind our way into the hills for a stunning visit to Larnach Castle, exploring its dramatic backstory, ornate ceilings, beautifully maintained gardens, and that unmatched rooftop view over the Otago Peninsula — plus a surprise performance you won’t want to miss. Back in town, we stop at the famous Dunedin Railway Station, often called the most photographed building in the entire country, before catching scenic shots of the train lines, tunnels, and countryside on our way back to the ship. The day wraps with a breathtaking sail-away from Otago Harbour aboard Celebrity Edge, complete with a sunset timelapse and a final moment with the blinking lighthouse that greeted us at sunrise. If you love travel, history, castles, local beer, trains, and cinematic cruise-day adventures, this Dunedin vlog has it all.
