Join this tour to visit two of New Zealand’s most famous attractions, Hobbiton Movie Set and Waitomo Caves, in one easy day trip from Auckland. Our tour from 1 December 2023 will be the extended Hobbiton Experience (now 2.5 hours) where you can venture beyond the door to a fully themed Hobbit Hole interior. Immerse yourself in the interior with entry hall, bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen, dining area, equipped bathroom, parlour and crackling fireplace. Be fascinated as the magical world of Hobbiton comes to life and take photos in front of your favourite places like the Hobbit Holes, the Shire and the Green Dragon Inn. Then journey to the World Famous Waitomo Glowworm Caves and be captivated by the thousands of magical glowworms twinkling in the Grottos, the stalactites and stalagmites as you glide silently through the cave by boat. Marvel at the stunning scenery en route as we journey off the motorways into the real hinterland of New Zealand. All admission fees and cafe lunch included.

5.00Our day trip to Hobitton and Waitomo Cave was absolutely fantastic. We were amazed by the attention to detail at the Hobitton movie set, which felt incredibly immersive. And seeing the thousands of glowworms light up the darkness in complete silence was a truly unforgettable experience. The trip was well organised. Our guide was excellent. Bravo!!

5.00The ride was nice and comfortable, and the guide was very knowledgeable explaining landmarks and destinations. Hobbiton was a great place to visit even if you're not a lord of the rings fan, and the Waitomo Glowworm caves was a magical experience. Cameron was a fantastic tour guide and i highly recommend this tour!
Amazing experience!
