The arrangements were excellent. I absolutely love traveling, and entering Bilbo's house was a fantastic experience.

Super well organised trip collection from CBD in comfortable mini bus. Beautiful drive out through countryside with comfort breaks both ways. Seamless entry to hobbiton which is incredibly well organised. It was very very busy so go off peak if you can. Having said that we had a gorgeous sunny day and enjoyed the lovely gardens of hobbiton which were in fulll bloom. Excellent tour guide on the bus (Ali) and in hobbiton (Hayden). You don’t get much time to soak things up on your now as you are always with the group so this is a mega touristy thing to do but it’s very well done. Enjoyed the complimentary drink in the green dragon too. The fully furnished hobbit house was really lovely. I’ve read all the books and it really did bring it to life with so may carefullly worked through details

David is amazing tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and professional. The tour is a great experience that is hard to miss if your are visiting New Zealand. The Waitamo Cave tour is more impressive than the description. The hobbitown is like a paradise. We were able to get free drinks during our trip. Umbrella is available to borrow if it starts raining. We were able to go inside the hobbit house and check out the fine furnitures. These two places are worth the trip.

AMAZING DAY! We actually booked a private drive and tour by our exceptional driver and guide, Alexander. We learned so much from Alexander along the way, it was terrific. We learned a lot about the area between Auckland and Hobbiton, we learned about the dairy and sheep/wool industry, and we learned so much about the filming of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies - Alexander really knew all the fascinating back stories and made it so interesting. And of course, HOBBITON was a highlight of our trip to New Zealand. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that but it was and I'm not even an LOTR expert and my husband has never even seen one movie! The LAND - wow, just gorgeous. With my parents both born in Ireland, I'm also a bit embarrassed to say that the farmland around Hobbiton was actually more green than Ireland! You must go to Hobbiton to learn about how they found the land, how they built the sets, see the amazing Shire and Hobbit Holes and the level of detail put into everything, and learn about how the movie set eventually became a tourist attraction. The tour was not overbooked at all, they do a great job of spacing the groups out so it never felt like Disneyland. The buffet lunch was delicious, and the gift shop was fun! The drive there and all the details that were handled by Alexander really contributed to a terrific day. I highly recommend you see Hobbiton this way!
