Private Hobbiton Movie Set, Te Puia, Rotorua Tour from Auckland

About this activity

Spend a full day exploring North Island's icon at your leisure with your private group.

This private tour collects you from your Auckland hotel and heads south to the Hobbiton Movie Set, the real-world Shire from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. Walk among the hobbit holes, visit the Green Dragon Inn and see Bag End, where Frodo and Bilbo's adventures began.

From there, continue to Rotorua, where you visit Te Puia, a geothermal valley of bubbling mud pools and steaming vents, home to the New Zealand Māori Arts and Crafts Institute and a Kiwi Conservation Centre.

As this is a private tour it can be fully customised to your group's desires.

You travel in a luxury, eco-friendly minivan for up to 6 guests, guided personally by the owner-operator. Start and finish times are flexible to your groups desire. Snacks and bottled water are provided, and entry tickets to both Hobbiton are included with additional attractions available to purchase on the day.
