Wellington, the capital of New Zealand is also the capital of Middle Earth. You have seen the magnificent Lord of the Rings Trilogy, now come along and experience the real Middle Earth.

Both locations are situated at the elegant and beautiful Fernside Lodge in the Wairarapa. The deluxe tour has exclusive access to these sites and you will be served a gourmet picnic at the White Bridge of Lothlorien - one of the few remaining structures used in the filming.
