A wonderful visit to Hobbiton

Published on Nov, 2024

This is a great tour easy pick from Auckland the Hobbiton village is so well done it was beautiful walking around with the guide who is full of knowledge. It was amazing being able to go inside one of the homes fully furnished.

A great birthday

Published on Nov, 2024

Had a great time. The driver was great. I had a great time on my birthday. The best gift that I've got,even though I treated myself

Hobbiton is an absolute must!

Published on Oct, 2024

This tour is simply amazing whether you are a Lord of the Rings fan or not. I mainly booked this for my husband who is a big fan, but I enjoyed it as much as he did. The scenery is just spectacular! I had no idea the area was so large. The attention to detail was phenomenal, and it was such fun touring a hobbit house. Our tour guide, Matt, told us many interesting facts along the way and even stopped on the way back to treat us to ice cream (hint: try the Hokey-Pokey ice cream; you won't be sorry). He was so nice and a great driver. The company was also great to communicate with and responded quickly to a couple questions I had. I highly recommend this Hobbiton tour with Auckland Scenic Tours!

Worth the Drive!

Published on Jul, 2024

Our guide Mike was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and passionate about New Zealand and the Hobbiton history. My wife and I hadn’t seen the movies, but now want to. Our son, who loves Tolkien and the stories, was in heaven. A must stop when visiting Auckland!

One great adventure to rule them all!

Published on Jun, 2024

Amazing time with friends! Our tour guide was very friendly and accommodating to our questions. This was an adventure of a lifetime made extra special by this service provider. Kudos!
