This is a must-experience tour for fans of the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movies!
Originally a 500-hectare cattle farm, director Peter Jackson was looking for a location to film The Lord of the Rings when he saw the similar terrain and landscape to medieval England and decided to build a set. Fans of the film will have an unforgettable time listening to detailed stories about the film’s production from a guide!
Variety of things to enjoy
The tour will take you through 37 Hobbit holes, including the one where Bilbo Baggins lived, as well as gardens, hedgerows, a mill, a double-arched bridge and where the quest for the One Ring began, as well as a festive lunch buffet!
