Ian and Eby were great guides. Ian is especially knowledgeable and passionate about everything from lord of the rings to history to geology and even gold panning. I'm a big lord of the rings fan and my wife hasn't even seen the movies but we both enjoyed our experience a lot and highly recommend this tour for nerds and newbies alike.

I was looking for a last minute tour because another activity had been canceled. I was concerned that I might not be enough of a Lord of the Rings fan to fully appreciate it, but Ben (our guide) asked all of us what our “fan level” was and then explained the scenes so we could all understand the context. He had a flip book of the scenes from the movie in the locations we visited and explained how they edited scenes. He had copies of the scripts from the movies and lots of very authentic props and costumes that we were encouraged to pose with. He even did individual videos of each of us “disappearing” when we put on the ring. He was patient with shy guests and made everyone feel like part of the Fellowship! It was a great way to see many interesting sites and learn about the behind the scenes filming of the movies.

This was definitely a great tour for any Lord of the Rings geek. The quality of a tour such as this is obviously heavily dependent on the knowledge and enthusiasm of the tour guide, as many of the movie locations would otherwise not be that recognizable. Shane proved to be an excellent guide with just those qualities. We particularly liked his showing us scenes from the movie set against the specific locations that we visited, thus bringing those locations to life. His extensive knowledge of all things LOTR and various movie filming anecdotes was impressive and very entertaining.

The walk was fantastic. The guide Francesco was very nice and informative. Each landscape "uau". I speak little English and yet I can understand a lot. I recommend.

We were unsure what our tour would be like as it was a last minute change that took us on this tour. What a wonderful surprised it was! Ian was a great guide. He was well-prepared, educational and fun. We learned so much about the filming process, the scenes and how LOTR was created along with other LOTR “nerds”.

Tour Guide Ben was fun, entertaining and engaging. Ben is a true Lord of the Rings fan and was enthusiastic in the cosplay and willing to share local added knowledge.

Our guide Benji gave everything and gave us a great day. We even got hold of “original” transcripts of the scripts and were allowed to play around with “original” replicas of the weapons.
