Very rushed tour. You couldn't linger in any room of interest and if you had back problems, you couldn't use any surface for support whilst listening to the guide waffle on.
Can't take photos anywhere inside which was a disappointment.
The best part was a walk through the garden
I just think they charge too much. Would be nicer if it is $10.00 each.
Interesting home of a wealthy piano dealer. Good guided tour and very nice garden.
Beautifully preserved home with original furnishings art and porcelain that the owners collected throughout their lifetime knowledgeable friendly guides take you on a tour throughout the house or you can wander through the beautiful Gardens for free
This was the highlight of our visit to Dunedin central, a lavish domestic snapshot of the early New Zealand rich merchant class. It was a bit quirky (like the Japanese sword collection greeting visitors) and the expensive bric-a-brac made it feel like a home rather than a display. Our guide was amiable and knowledgeable, but also a bit deaf, and didn’t hear some of our questions
Great tour today guided by Jenny, modern, relevant and interesting. Highly recommended
Well worth an hour of your time! Some very unique Dunedin history
Olveston House is always a favourite when visiting Dunedin. So much to see and excellent guides. Take the time and enjoy a fantastic slice of history.
Stunning house!! So well preserved so much love have to into this house. Well worth the visit
This was the highlight of all our tours. Really nice atmosphere though the rooms were stuffed with too much objada. We should have left a little more time.
Amazing house full of original furnishings etc. Great guided tour.
This is just the most awesome place to visit. Wonderful historic house, with a very informative guided tour.
What a place, looks like it's been frozen in time. I wasn't sure I'd like this not been a huge history buff but I actually enjoyed the tour and learn't some new things about Dunedin I did not know and I've lived here since I was just 6 years old. Well worth it and not expensive at all.
A must visit attraction when in Dunedin (and for locals too). Great to see such well preserved architecture, social and artistic heritage. Will be back. Beautifully kept gardens too.
