Hobbiton Movie Set is an experience to tantalise the senses of visitors from all
across the globe, as guests find themselves engulfed in the sights,
smells, sounds and tastes of The Shire,
at the home of the Hobbits, as featured in The Lord of the Rings
and The Hobbit Trilogies.
The
extraordinary following that the movies have amassed has led to our tours
becoming a must see while travelers are
in New Zealand. The Hobbiton Movie Set is the only set that remains intact from
the trilogies, and that allows our visitors to fully immerse themselves in the
wonders of The Shire.
Visitors are
given the once in a lifetime opportunity to see an iconic movie set in its full
glory; from wandering the rambling paths of The Shire, to seeing the submerged
Hobbit Holes that litter the rolling hillsides.

HIGHLIGHTS
Hobbiton was wonderful, we took
lots of photos. The Waitomo Caves were amazing with a very entertaining guide
and the short boat ride was a lifetime experience, the glow worms were so
beautiful they lit up the dark cave like
stars constellations. Would recommend this tour to everyone.
This tour was the highlight of our
trip to New Zealand. Our tour guide was absolutely amazing. The countryside is
absolutely beautiful and Hobbiton and the caves are everything expected. Fun,
beautiful scenery, and information that you never knew about until the tour.
