Reviews: From Auckland, New Zealand: Hobbiton™ Movie Set Tour (with Auckland Hotel Transfers)
Guest User2025-01-08
Hobbiton is a magical experience for fans of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. Nestled in the stunning rolling hills of Matamata, it feels like stepping straight into Middle-earth. The attention to detail is remarkable—every hobbit hole, garden, and prop is immaculately maintained, making the set feel alive and authentic. The guided tour is informative, blending behind-the-scenes stories with insights into how the set was created. The highlight is the Green Dragon Inn, where you can enjoy a refreshing ale or ginger beer brewed exclusively for Hobbiton. The staff are passionate and friendly, adding to the immersive atmosphere. Whether you’re a Tolkien fan or just enjoy unique, picturesque experiences, Hobbiton is worth the visit. It’s a truly enchanting destination that brings the magic of the movies to life!★

Reviews: Small-Group Hobbiton and Waitomo Day Tour with Lunch from Auckland
Guest User2024-07-01
The whole family had the most amazing day with Murray visiting thr Hobbiton village and the Glow worm caves. Murray was extremely knowledgeable and explained things and places with great detail. Bush and Beach are lucky to have him.
He made sure we had a great time in the bus, while we stopped for a coffee break, at the movie set and the caves. And all through the drive as well. ★

Reviews: Auckland: Hobbiton Movie Set Day Trip with Festive Lunch
Guest User2025-12-01
The driver was super friendly and keen on a chat which was nice, also made jokes along the way which just added to the trip. On the way up to hobbinton we got interesting facts about the things around us. hobbinton was gorgeous and much bigger than I thought, my favourite part was being able to go through one of the hobbit huts. The lunch at the end was absolutely delicious and enjoyed every bite and quite happily went up for seconds. The free drink was also a nice bonus.
