Your expert guide will take you on a 2 and a half hour journey through "The Shire". You will be told the story of how the remote set was discovered and how Hobbiton is a living film set maintained by a team of gardeners and maintenance staff.

Hobbiton was good. The visit to McLauren park and the beach was exceptional. A great experience, thank you.

Hobbiton was exceptional!! Visit the actual Shire as seen in the Hobbit and LotR trilogies. Preserved in its perfection! And our Wicked Wanderer Nicolle was an absolutely delightful person - we were ahead of schedule so she got us an earlier tour! She is a free up in Auckland and showed us all the local favorite spots. She made the top of the list for all our honeymoon memories

The drive to and from was so beautiful as well as Hobbiton itself. Interesting to hear about how the movie was made.
