It was amazing!!! Rex was engaging and comfortable as our tour guide full of information and jokes. The views were spectacular and its understandable why LOTR made use of NZ nature. I would recommend this for everyone wanting to spend a relaxing day away from the city. They feed you delicious sandwiches and a delectable chocolate cake to be washed down with lovely champagne! My only wish was that there had been snow!!

If you are a fan of Lord of the Rings, this is the best tour for you. We were taken to different scence to expose the locations of the movie and how they were used for the movie. We were also told some interesting stories on movie stars.

Our tour guide was GREAT! He was really into the film, the locations, the camera tricks, information galore! Our 4 hour tour lasted 5.5 hours because he was so excited which we didn't mind at all. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name but he is married to a Japanese woman.

This was a stunning trip and as our guide was a sound recorder who had worked on all 3 Lord of the Ring films, it was also very informative and interesting. I would highly recommend this trip!

Excellent start to our holiday in NZ. Steve was a very friendly, accommodating guide who kept us entertained with his local knowledge. Nothing was too much trouble. Delicious lunch, fantastic scenery, good company. What more could you ask for?

Long trip but had some great scenery. This trip is more for the scenery and the lord of the rings is a little bonus.

We had an awesome tour! Our guide shared his love of the movie, the town of Wellington, and had us do all kinds of fun stuff while we experienced the different locations. Thanks Randal!

Great group, knowledgeable guide, comfortable vehicle, perfect weather, unbelievable scenery! As an ardent fan of Lord of the Rings, it was a dream come true! It was certainly Lord of the Rings based, but there was a lady on the trip who didn't even watch the movies before and thoroughly enjoyed the landscape. Many people like to rent a car and drive around New Zealand themselves, but this particular location would be inaccessible. This trip is DEFINITELY worth the time and money!

Our tour guide was great! He was funny and knew a lot about the the filming locations for all of the LOTR movies. He had a role on the film and shared many of his interesting experiences. I had so much fun learning more about LOTR and about Wellington!
