5.00I had such an amazing time at Weta Workshop today! I was looking for something to do on my last day in Auckland and this tour didn't disappoint. Our guide Kris was funny, approachable, helpful and guided us through a seamless tour. The exhibits were very interactive, detailed, creative and filled with vibrant artwork! Highly recommended if you're interested in the creative process of film and arts.

3.00you ask for feeback but there is there no opportunity to comment I thought the guide spoke far too quickly and loudly. As a consequence it was very hard to understand her
