Reviews
A very good itinerary. For fans who love the Lord of the Rings trilogy, they now have a new experience...you can enter the hobbit's home to visit, which is very good👍
The bus promptly picked us up at the hotel. The guides were very knowledgeable about LOTR. There was time to take photos of the place. We were able to go inside one of the hobbit-holes. It was really fun to play with the props there. There was a drink included at the Green Dragon. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic options were available. The lunch included was buffet style with plenty of options. Food and desserts were tasty. I went there during my birthday and the bus driver was so lovely he got the everyone in the bus to sing me Happy Birthday. And then he sang Hari Huritau. That was special. Great experience!
It was such a cute Hobbiton village~ I think it would have been better if there was a Hobbiton & Glowworm Cave tour departing from Rotorua. It's a shame that I could only see Hobbiton, but I'm satisfied because I was able to make happy memories.
The tour was well organized and the tour guide /driver is very friendly and
Such a fantastic day, and so worth the cost! Our driver and guide Hana was full of knowledge about the local area, the drive was scenic and beautiful. Hobbiton is such a magical place, made even better by a delicious lunch in the marquee tent! Couldn’t recommend more ❤️
The tour guide is energetic and explains very carefully, allowing tourists to have an in-depth understanding of Habi Village. The overall CP value is quite high ~ recommended! 👍🏻
the driver was friendly and kind. only I had a recommendation in the time of the tour in hobbiton and lunch. it was a short time. we had to rush especially in the lunch time and bar
Pick up is punctual, Guide Keith is very informative and detailed in his explanation. Tour is very well organised and you will not feel overly crowded as it's broken into smaller manageable groups. Highly recommended.
great place to visit if you are lord of the ring fan
great trip, a must do for any new visitor to NZ, for all ages
