HOBBITON TOURS
If you are a fan of the Hobbit or Lord of the Rings then no trip to New Zealand is complete without visiting the Hobbiton Movie Set. Join Bush and Beach to go ‘There and back again’. Our small group guided Hobbiton tours visit the outdoor set of 44 Hobbit holes built for the Hobbit movies. You get to stand by the gate of Bilbo’s house at Bag End as well as crossing the stone bridge by the Mill to go inside the Green Dragon Inn. You will have lots of time for photos around the set and learn from your guide about how the movies were made and get all the insider information about how the set was built and the stories behind scenes from the movies.
Bush and Beach run at least one daily return tour to the Hobbiton Movie set from Auckland. All of our tours to Hobbiton include lunch. The Early Access tour has a few special extras over the Hobbiton Express tour and both tours offer a small group experience so you can have plenty of time for photos and to talk to the guides.
If you want to do a one way trip from Auckland to Rotorua or from Rotorua to Auckland visiting Hobbiton Movie Set on the way we can offer that as well, the details are in the relevant tours below.
