Led by our passionate tour guides, notorious for bringing your journey to life, sharing their stories and background knowledge, and run in modern minibuses packed with extras ensuring your comfort and safety.

    We had a wonderful tour guide named Aled who was excited, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic! He really brought the trip to life! Hobbiton was wonderful- everything was well-curated and it was all just like in the movies! Also really enjoyed seeing Rotorua and Waiotapu and its geothermal springs! Highly recommend this and would do again in a heartbeat!

    John was a great tour guide. Hobbiton is beautiful and anyone from a hardcore LOTR fan to someone who has never seen or read LOTR would love it. Wai-O-Taipu is cool as well. One thing I’ll note is for those deciding between this and the Hobbiton-Te Puia, as someone who has done Te Puia, if this is your only chance to do it, do the Hobbiton-Te Puia tour. If you have time to do Te Puia on your own another day, then do this tour.

  • Hobbiton fun
