Traveling to or from Dunedin can be a hassle-free experience with the Dunedin Private Airport Transfers offered by NZ South Island Tours.

Whether you’re arriving after a long flight or heading out to explore Otago’s stunning scenery, this transfer option deserves a close look.
What we really like about this service is its fixed price—NZ$90 for up to four people—that’s often lower than local taxis, which tend to charge by the meter and can add up quickly. Plus, the luxurious SUV promises a comfortable ride, making even a short trip feel like part of the adventure. The door-to-door service adds significant convenience, especially if you’re tired after travel or have a lot of luggage. On the flip side, some travelers might prefer a slightly longer or more flexible tour, as this is strictly a transfer service.
