I booked the Hobbiton Movie Set Tour, the service was super great and excellent!. I was taken care of by Raymond, all the way to the set he explained and showed us the history, the view around the movie set. Thank you for your service 👍🏻👍🏻

I ended up booking a small group tour, which allowed me to explore very comfortably. Since there weren't many people, I was able to take landscape photos without people blocking the view, and I enjoyed the detailed explanations provided for each scene. There was a Korean translation of the guide, which helped me understand some parts that I couldn't quite grasp at first. I really enjoyed it.

We joined the Rotorua tour with CheekyKiwi Tours and had Jeoff as our driver/guide. He was professional, friendly, and made the journey enjoyable with his humor and stories. Wai-O-Tapu’s geothermal wonders were breathtaking, the Polynesian Spa was the perfect place to relax, and the Rotorua city tour gave great local flavor. Jeoff’s care, attentiveness, and knowledge made the day unforgettable. Highly recommend both CheekyKiwi Tours and Jeoff!

Hanoz was our guide. He made the 8 in the group introduced ourselves. I enjoyed the caves mostly. My son loves the geysers. Anyway, I love that they were generous with their bottled drinking water and snacks. Their transport allows you to charge your phones. The ostrich feeding experience was fun.

Thank you so much, Raymond, for driving us and making our tour so enjoyable. You shared so many fascinating insights about Hobbiton and Rotorua, which we truly appreciated. As The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings fans, we absolutely loved the Hobbiton experience. Don’t forget to try their danish! Their pastries were really good. Our visit to Rotorua was also unforgettable, we learned so much about Kiwi birds and the geysers.
This tour is definitely worth every penny. If you’re looking for a well-organized, informative, and memorable experience, this is it!
Thank you again, Raymond, for your kindness and for making this fun-filled day extra special. We had a wonderful time and truly appreciate your assistance. We’ll be sure to visit again soon!

Absolutely loved the Hobbiton Movie Set Tour—it truly felt like stepping into Middle-earth! The scenery was breathtaking, the guides were knowledgeable and entertaining, and every little detail of the set was beautifully preserved. The stories behind the filming locations made it even more special.
The bus ride from The Shire’s Rest was smooth and well-organized, and the complimentary drink at The Green Dragon Inn was such a perfect ending to the tour. Highly recommended for both fans of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, or anyone who enjoys nature and storytelling.
Definitely worth it—a must-do in New Zealand! 💚

We were able to tour the main areas of Rotorua comfortably and enjoyably. Our local guide, John, helped us tour comfortably and gave us a lot of information. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to experience Rotorua and Wai-O-Tapu Polynesian Spa.
