Cần Quan Tâm
Weta Workshop
Delve into the heart of Wellywood and visit the Weta Workshop, a physical effects workshop who created all the props, armour, weapons, costumes, miniatures and prosthetics for the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit 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. You'll also have chance to take photos with various characters and weapons, as well as treating yourself to a souvenir or two, if desired.
Mount Victoria Lookout
Enjoy a stunning panoramic view of the harbour and city from the Mt Victoria lookout. Your guide will talk about the landmarks you can see from the top and help you take photos. Mt Victoria is always on the list of things to do in Wellington, so we thought we'd save you the trouble of walking up the hill to get there!

5.00Wonderful day and a must for any LOTR fans - to be fair even if you aren’t and only a casual fan then the trip is still worth it as you visit some beautiful spots. Weta was fantastic although beware of the weta cave lol make sure you have some money as the temptation is real lol Our guide Hamish was brilliant too - very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour.

5.00This tour was a dream come true for me: visiting my favourite LOTR locations, the Weta workshop, and learning new things about how the movies came to be from our knowlegeable guides Jack and (so sorry I don't remember his name, but he plays in a metal band?). We were traveling with our 2month old baby, and they were very supportive and helpful. We even managed to do the forest walk with our pram! It required a couple of lifts, but totally worth it!
Rivendell!

5.00We got to see the places LOTR was filmed. She let us dress up in capes with fake swords like the elves and take pictures in ‘Rivendell’. Got to visit WETA studios and see how the ‘magic’ happens. A great experience!
Totally worth it expect the free lunch

4.00I had a very nice experience. The guide was very informative and helpful. The entire experience was worth the amount asked for the tour. I only had one bad experience which was the free lunch. The vegetarian ramen was falsely advertised and had instant ramen noodles with a sprinkle of veggies on top. I did expect such a meal for the price on the menu. Would advice the tour operators to warn the people in the future about not choosing this ridiculous option. Everything else in the tour was good, perfect length of time and small crowd helped to have the full experience.

5.00Awesome tour with one of the best tour guides I’ve had (Grant). He was very knowledgeable, a great story teller, and made the tour very fun. I would strongly recommend whether you’re a casual or hardcore fan. Definitely worth it especially if you get Grant as your guide!
Must Do Tour for LOTR fans!

5.00My experience was great! I was not staying within the pick-up area. They emailed me ahead of time, helped me find a good spot to be picked up, and even helped me find a cheap parking lot nearby. So, from before the tour even began, the customer service was exceptional. On the tour, our guide was fantastic. He had been an extra in the films and even brought some of his personal keepsakes to show us. We had lots of time to take photos, look at the photos, and compare where we were to stills of the movie. Plus, he had a wealth of knowledge. The lunch was a sit down meal and was way better than I had imagined. If you're a LOTR fan, this tour is a must!! It was one of my favorite LOTR things I did throughout my entire New Zealand trip!
Awesome Experience in Wellington

5.00The tour was amazing and beside lotr what made it so was our guide Grant. Just a really nice person all around. Knowledgable, easy going, welcoming and passionate about Lord of The Rings, about NZ nature and Wellington. My wife and I enjoyed every second and, not to be forgotten, the very tasty lunch with a view on the bay.
Fun way to learn about movie magic and see Wellington

5.00I really enjoyed the tour. I'm not even that big of LOTR fan! I learned a lot about the what went into the filming and some funny stories about everyone that worked on the film. I also really liked that we got a scenic tour of the Wellington area along with seeing where the filming was done. The lunch was really good. The full day tour is well worth it. Our guide, Natalie was great. She even had advice and support for my child who will be going to school in NZ.
Great tour
