The tour was well organized, informative, and enjoyable from start to finish. It was fascinating to learn about the history and behind-the-scenes details of the set. The scenery was stunning, and there were plenty of opportunities to take memorable photos. The comfortable luxury van made the journey relaxing and pleasant, allowing us to sit back and take in the beautiful scenery along the way.

It was a fun day exploring Waitomo and Hobbiton. Pick up was at the SkyCity Terminal, so it was quick and easy for us (we stayed across the street at the Horizon). They gave us a Cookie Time cookie and a bottle of water after scanning our Klook voucher. The ride itself was comfy, and Bruce, our driver and tour guide made sure we stayed comfortable and entertained all throughout.

What a fantastic tour! We really enjoyed seeing the famous Hobbiton set (even though I have never seen any of the films). We had Cory as our tour guide and he was brilliant! Would highly recommend it for a fantastic activity!

Very friendly guide who spend time explaining to the group about each part of the itinerary and share about New Zealand culture. Wonderful spa experience and tree top walk, worth trying it out.
