    Small group tour, very enjoyable day out. Guide was informative about the scenery and places as we drove to and from the venues. Hobbiton itself was amazing, the addition of Hobbit hole houses you could go in and interact with the props was extra from my last visit. The aroma at the geothermal pools will be stuck in my nostrils for ever, amazing to see but should have worn a nose clip 🤢

    Hobbiton lived up to the hype, the hot springs were unique, and Hanoz gave us a great experience as a guide and driver to each attraction!

    Hobbiton is amazing from beginning to end. We felt a bit rushed and did not have any time to visit the gift shop during our tour. Wai-O-Tapu was very nice. Only bonus would be to have a hot water pool in which we could soak.
