I made a reservation in advance and reported to the counter with my mobile phone voucher. During the pick-up process, a short video will be played, giving you a welcoming feeling and a sense of excitement that a fantasy world is about to come! The tour guide will lead you to visit the park. Be sure to follow along. Don't stay or wander around at will. Take your time to enjoy the scenery or take photos. If you miss it, you will never look back. The tour guide is all in English, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the introduction, you can still have a lot of fun! The tour guide will also help take photos! The last stop was the pub, where everyone could choose a free drink. I chose the only ginger ale without alcohol. It was a big cup, delicious and filling! I really wanted to sit by the stove and stay for an hour or two, but unfortunately it was only a few minutes (maybe half an hour, or even shorter, I kind of forgot). Free drinks and self-brewed coffee are available. When leaving the park, everyone received a shaped cup as a souvenir. ps: Before entering the park, the tour guide asked if there was anyone who didn’t know why they were standing here. I wanted to raise my hand because I had never even read the relevant movie books. When I originally arranged the itinerary, I even wanted to save some travel expenses. Skip this man-made attraction, but it’s a good thing! The natural scenery is beautiful, and the architectural furnishings and various objects are exquisitely made, as if they were made entirely from nature! Of course, we also take great care in maintaining it! Well worth a visit!

Such a fantastic experience. Todd from great sights was such a fun and warm guide / driver. The bus was really comfortable and the lunch was delicious. My mom is a vegetarian and we were glad they had a Vegan option! Both places are a must see and we will recommend this tour to our friends and family.

Signing up for Hobbiton Movie Set Tour with Auckland & Beyond Tours is the best choice i’ve made! Our tour guide Mr. Adil pick us up on time, he is very professional and kind. During the journey, he share with us the history of New Zealand which was very interesting. He also share us tips so we can have the full experience at the hobbiton tour. After the tour, Mr. Adil provide us with water and snacks and already waiting patiently for us. He is very attentive and always making sure we have enough time to see everything. Overall, the tour went so smooth and fun! biggest thanks to Mr. Adil for his top notch service, I would gladly signing up for another tour with Auckland & Beyond if I ever visit Auckland again in future.

The tour included 2 activities: the Waitomo cave and Hobbiton movie set. Both were amazing. Unfortunately we weren’t allowed to take any pics inside the cave but we did take a lot of pics of the Hobbiton thou. Worth every penny spent that day!

The driver was Raymond, and the best Korean-tailored bullet delivery driver👍 If I could speak English well, I think I would have enjoyed Hobbiton and the cave more while listening to the guide's explanation, but I had to go around as I pleased, so it was a little disappointing. The scenery was amazing, and I was satisfied with the pictures I took at every place I went, and the price was much cheaper than other packages, so it was the most satisfying trip. Honestly, I'm not sure if I would go again if I had the chance, but I think I wouldn't regret going at least once.

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👍

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!
