If you are interested in movies and tv when real workmanship has been used rather than AI generated this is the place to visit. The guides are usually people who work on the items made and are knowledgeable about all aspects of the processes used.

Tessa, our guide, was absolutely fantastic! We were a small group at 8:40 am. The people we met were passionate and engaging. As a film buff, I couldn't help but be charmed by Weta Studios. Well done!

Our guide, Taylor, was excellent. Really passionate and knowledgeable about all things WETA. Was fascinating to find out more about props, prosthetics, animatronics etc and to see some of the Lord of the Rings costumes up close and the attention to detail and time that went into some of those

This was so inspiring and awesome. Everyone was so creative and encouraging and I felt like going home and learning to make some epic stained glass windows, or maybe some origami kiwis

Great tour, was extremely informative and included so much more than I anticipated. Tour guide had an amazing personality, and was so enthusiastic & passionate about the workshop, which really added to how special it was. Booked it spontaneously on a rainy day in Wellington and I'm so glad I did so.

Impressive skill and expertise on show at this amazing workshop! Really enjoyed the emphasis placed during the tour on the Kiwi ingenuity involved in making all the wonderful designs, this felt authentic and true to Kiwi values and something to inspire visitors. I definitely felt inspired to try some cardboard and tinfoil sculptures at home! Customer service throughout was great. Louis was also a warm, friendly and engaging tour guide - thank you. Also loved that there was a complimentary photo print as part of the tour price which felt like good value for money. Would recommend to fans of movie making and creative people when in Wellington.

It was rather long and boring I think the highlight was talking to someone who worked there. Did not think it was worth $63.

Lovely energetic and knowledgeable guide. Wonderful exhibits on show and some tactile areas. Public transport is close by so was a great day out for us.
