Overview

Private Tour: Max 4 people.

Our wonderful adventure begins as soon as I pick you up outside the port gates. I love seeing my fellow travelers fascinated by their experience of this amazing movie set where their favorite stories & characters were brought to life. Stand under the party tree, see all your favorites, and hear behind-the-scenes stories as you walk the meandering tracks past the Hobbit holes, Bilbo's House, Bag End, Gandalf's Cutting & The Mill. If you haven't seen the movie or read the books you still love it

"Te Puia" Geysers - Rotorua

Heartland of New Zealand's geothermal activity and a center for Māori history and culture. See kiwi birds, Māori greenstone and wood carvers at work. Surrounded by a steaming volcanic landscape, see and feel the heat of boiling mud, and endlessly simmering hot pools, the thrilling sight of "Pohutu" geyser erupting boiling water and steam 100 ft high an amazing display of force. A full day of fun & adventure!

An Absolutely Wonderful Day!

We had an wonderful day with Patrick, our tour operator. While we were not able to do the Te Puia geysers because our ship came in late (nothing anyone can do about that!), Patrick still was able to show us some of the local sights of Rotorua, such as different hot springs and ZORBS?! (Yes, they are a thing...) And of course, Patrick got us to Hobbiton... Which. Is. AMAZING! They have just opened up two new hobbit holes for guests to walk through, along with the rest of the Shire, and the attention to detail simply cannot be believed! To make the day even better, Patrick let us know that guests with mobility challenges can reserve a personal golf cart to help get around Hobbiton. My mom, who sometimes has difficulty walking long distances, was able to experience the beautiful scenery and set. Thank you, Patrick for making this a wonderful day!
Both highlights in one day.
