Review for: Hobbiton Express Tour BB7

101% New Zealand hospitality. Damian is the man. Very knowledgeable and passionate. He was so warm and we felt like we gained a friend in New Zealand. Hobbiton was majestic, and they are still adding more attractions. The operator was very generous, and even gave out $10 voucher that we used at the gift shop. Highly recommended!!!

The drive took about 2 hours. The driver was waiting at the hotel entrance ahead of time. After about an hour of driving, there is a break where you can use the restroom and grab a cup of coffee, which was a very thoughtful arrangement! The guided tour of Hobbiton was also very relaxed and fun, and umbrellas were provided in case of rain. The buffet lunch arranged at the end was better than expected; we had about 60 minutes to eat, and there was a pretty good variety of food that tasted great.

The tour was very captivating, it brings such great joy immersing yourself in the world of Hobbiton. The view was stunning, the little details in each hobbit hole were well-thought out and the buffet lunch did not disappoint! Meredith, our guide, was also very wonderful, as she came prepared with a lot of trivia and also a side trip to the farms surrounding the movie set! :)

I booked the tour pretty last minute was wondering if the tour is still happening. to my surprise, they called me in the morning to inform me about the pick up time and that the tour is confirmed. Pick up and drop off at my hotel. It was a fantastic experience. Our driver / tour guide, Michelle, was both attentive and knowledgeable, always making sure to answer questions and provide detailed insights about New Zealand. The tour went smoothly, with everything running on time and organized perfectly. It was a well-rounded experience that made learning about the area enjoyable and engaging. Highly recommended!

The tour was great. Michelle, our tour guide was very friendly and was on time to pick us up from the hotel. The lunch served at the banquet hall was good as well. There are veggie and non-veggie options. Quite a few variety. The overall experience was great!

If you like lord if the ring... then you must like this activity♥️♥️ There is a tour guide on the bus to explain the surrounding culture of New Zealand, and there is also a tour guide and introduction when you arrive at Habi Village. The buffet lunch is a good choice, although there is not much food, but delicious

Being able to book your own hotel for pickup and drop-off is easy and convenient. It is a two-hour drive from Auckland to Hobbiton, and the outbound trip includes a stop at a coffee shop for visitors to buy breakfast and use the restroom. The return trip also includes a restroom stop. The tent lunch is decently seasoned; while not extremely lavish, it is enough to fill you up. Overall, it is highly recommended. For anyone planning to visit Hobbiton, I suggest booking this type of package directly to save yourself the fatigue of driving.
