    This is a fantastic tour which gives us lesser mortals an opportunity to view the back stage genius and creativity of these wonderful humans! Honestly, it is incredible. Well worth the money and our guide gave us plenty of time to enjoy every part of the tour. We would definitely recommend this tour when you’re in Auckland !!

    Such an amazing experience at Weta Workshop! My husband and I enjoyed it so much and learned a lot about the magic behind movie making. Seeing how props, sets, and effects are created was incredible — it really felt like stepping into a world where imagination becomes reality. Highly recommend for movie lovers!

    This was recommended to us by complete strangers while on our way to NZ and thank goodness because it was so fun! We had the tour guide Ellie - our supreme leader (you got to go if you want to know what it means😉) who was informative, exciting and fun! The workshop was super interactive and unexpected. Very keen to come again should I be in NZ.

  • Weta great experience

    Was a great tour, movie effects and behind the scenes was great. Mila was fun and knowledgeable, thank you. Our group was way too large however and not everyone could hear her in all areas. Or experience all that was on offer
