Led by an expert guide, explore 44 charming hobbit holes, stroll through vibrant gardens, and uncover behind-the-scenes stories from the making of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit films. Your Hobbiton adventure concludes with a refreshing drink at the famous Green Dragon Inn, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the magical world of Middle-earth.
As you return to Auckland, enjoy views of New Zealand’s longest river, the Huntly power station, and the Māori Queen's burial site—capping off a day filled with cinematic wonder and natural beauty.
