Dunedin is the second largest city in the South Island and is the oldest city in New Zealand. It is the principal city of the region of Otago. The city stands on the hills and valleys surrounding the head of Otago Harbor, the home of magnificent world famous wildlife: the Royal Albatross and the Yellow Eyed Penguin. The sheer physical beauty of Dunedin with its magnificent hills and valleys induced Mark Twain to say, "The Scots stopped here on their way to heaven, thinking they had arrived." Dunedin has that kind of aura that makes you want to stay forever or to come back again and again.

To get to Dunedin from the United States of America, you can fly directly to Auckland, your entry point to New Zealand and then get a short flight to Dunedin. The other option is to fly directly to the following Australian airports: Sydney-Kingsford Smith International Airport and Brisbane Airport and get a connecting flight to Dunedin. If you are looking for cheap flights, one with more stopovers is going to save you more money. You can also save money on airfare by traveling during the off-peak season. Another way to save money is by booking your flight and hotel together in a package deal.
