This tour is f-ing good....

5.0This tour is f-ing good. It’s really really really good. Our tour guide was Ian. When he told us that he’s only been running this tour for under 6 weeks, I couldn’t believe it. He did such an excellent job. And the tour price is reasonable as well.
Ian was an amazing tour...

5.0Ian was an amazing tour guide. He brought the movie locations to life, both for the fans and fans by proxy (along for the scenery). Lots of amazing stops, stories and scenery. A fabulous afternoon out for the entire family!
A lot of fun

5.0The great views along with the commentary made for a fun afternoon. One member of the group had not seen any of the films and she enjoyed the tour a lot.
Awesome LOTR experience!
