I had a fantastic time, the driver Steven Johnson was excellent, very friendly and knowledgeable, very good driver. The included lunch near Waitomo and the free drink at the green dragon were excellent. The length of the trip was great, allowed for a good day, no time wasted even on the drive, plenty of views. Hobbiton and the Waitomo caves were incredible.

Hobbiton and Glow Worms with a great tour guide
Mike was such a genuinely fun and accommodating tour guide! The ride never felt long or boring because he kept us entertained with his stories, insights, and great sense of humor. He made the whole experience feel relaxed, enjoyable, and memorable. Definitely a big part of what made the tour so much fun!

A memorable trip
This was such a great trip. We were picked up and delivered to our hotel doorstep. The trip to the attractions was spaced appropriately with rest stops. Our driver, Mike, had great nuggets of wisdom and took care of all us with excellent service. Hobbiton was a great place to visit, especially for fans, while the glow worms in the Waitomo Caves were a wonder to behold.

A Fantastic, Stress-Free Solo Adventure!
A fantastic experience for a solo traveller! The tour was really easy to book, and being picked up directly from my hotel made the whole day convenient and stress-free. Our guide was friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable, and there was a great atmosphere among everyone on the bus. I never felt awkward travelling alone and had a brilliant time from start to finish. I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and well-organised day out!

Chose the North Island specifically for Hobbiton, it was amazing
Both places are a must see. Will definitely go back to Hobbiton again
Incredible day
