Dunedin
Dunedin is New Zealand's Scottish-founded southern city, home to the Southern Hemisphere's most beautiful railway station, the world's only mainland royal albatross colony, and rare yellow-eyed penguin nesting sites on the Otago Peninsula. Visit November through March via Seabourn or Oceania Cruises for wildlife encounters, Victorian architectural grandeur, and a university-town culture that punches far above its weight.
