    Hobbiton was such an amazing place. dylan our guide on the day was so engaging. The green lantern was a great finish. Doing the geysers and mud pools at Rotorua was a must see but the added tour of the kiwi enclosure with 2 of the 3 kiwis sighted made the day exceptional. The crafts were well done and easy to watch.
