This tour was a very last minute decision and it completely outdid my expectations. A lovely tour guide and companions added to the vast and stunning scenery. The hike up is quite a challenge but worth it for the exceptional views. As a Lord of the Rings fan it exceeded my expectations. Couldn’t recommend this enough.

A surreal experience to be in that majestic spot where so much of Lord of the Rings was filmed. I'll forever remember what it was like to be there. The film during the ride was also very informative.
