This was an amazing tour! Our tour guide made it so special. He entertained us the whole time and we laughed so much. By the time the tour was over, we were all friends! He made me want to move to NZ. The views were incredible and riding the 4WD around the river made it seem like we were on an adventure. Will never forget this tour.

Very enjoyable half day LotR tour around Queenstown, Glenorchy, and Paradise. Guide had some interesting lore to share and was great fun at the end having some tea and biscuits and a stroll around. Was great they included some other nice sites like the Glenorchy red shed too

What a fantastic experience!! Rachael was a great guide: very knowledgeable about all things history, geography and Lord of the Rings! There was a lot of content in the tour but didn’t feel rushed - plenty of time to see and experience all the different parts of the tour. We considered it excellent value for money! One of us was a “Ringy” and one was not … both enjoyed the experience enormously! And the four wheel driving through river crossings and up and down Skippers Canyon Road took great skill and we always felt safe in Rachael’s care. And the cuppa, bikkies and cake were most welcome!! Thank you Rachael for a great experience!!
