Follow in the footsteps of Frodo and the Hobbits as they began their quest to destroy the One Ring.

Recreate some of the most famous scenes from The Fellowship of the Ring and make your social media streams go crazy!
Then delve into the heart of Wellywood and visit the Weta Workshop, who created all the props, armour, weapons, costumes, miniatures and prosthetics for the Middle-earth movies.
Learn the secrets of movie magic on a behind-the-scenes tour by a Weta employee, who will explain the creative process behind bringing these films to life.

We had a wonderful time. Very knowledgeable tour guide. Very interesting and informative experience. Even my parents (who never watched the movies) enjoyed it.

The tour guide/driver, Sarah, is so energetic and knowledgeable. She provided so much info on the locations we visited and how they relate to the movie trilogy. I could not recommend her more for this tour. Flynn from the Weta Workshop part of the tour is also amazing. You can tell he loves working there and to be able to tell about the history and work of Weta. This tour (lasting roughly 4 hours) is a must for anyone who loves Lord of the Rings and wants more behind the scenes info. You get picked up right at the port and dropped off there, or alternately can get off within the city and find your own way back if you want to further explore the city after the tour.

It was just the two of us and the paddle down the river was awesome. Beyond beautiful. Communication with Deon was great

Great tour from start to finish! Driver picked us up on time & we met up with the main tour bus. The guide gave a well informed explanation of a few film locations on the way to WETA Cave. We also stopped for a glorious view of Wellington from the peak with some nice weather. The guide’s explanations & pictures really brought the scenes to life. But the best part for us was hearing all the behind the scenes efforts that went into pulling off the final results seen in the movies. After visiting the film locations, the tour of the studio was the cherry on top. It really is fascinating to see how all the materials for different movies are designed & fabricated. Even the non-LOTR fan in our group left impressed with the tour!

Interesting, but very expensive. Part of the tour is in a park which you can visit for free. The guide was very knowledgeable, but apart from the Weta workshop the tour wasn’t anything special

Interesting tour, Chewy has shown us engaged and entertaining some film parts. The Weta studio tour was fantastic, very different from Hollywood.

Our guide was very knowledgeable, an extra in the movies, shared his enthusiasm with us. We geeked out from seeing all of the film locations, costumes, and props. This excursion is so worth it for any LOTR fans!
