Cross the Kaimai Ranges by coach and head across the Waikato lowlands to Middle-earth — JRR Tolkien's Hobbiton movie set built in 1999 for the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
You'll enjoy a two and a half hour guided tour while exploring the Hobbiton Movie Set and village, where Bilbo Baggins lived and the quest for the ring began. Have your photo taken in front of a hobbit hole or by the pond while your guide entertains you with the stories and insider dish about filming these Hollywood blockbusters in New Zealand.
Make your way to Bagshot Row for a glimpse of the interior of a humble Hobbit's home. Designed and crafted by the renowned creative teams behind the film trilogies, Bagshot Row offers an authentic glimpse into the charming dwellings of Hobbits going about daily life in the Shire. Your guide will lead you through one of two Hobbit Holes, offering time to explore the detailed interiors, with each home designed to create an identical experience.
Continue along the pathways past The Millhouse, across the double-arch stone bridge and into the world-famous Green Dragon pub, which is a masterpiece of old-English charm with its thatched roof. Step inside the Green Dragon for a beverage from the Hobbit Southfarthing range to conclude your own Middle-earth adventure.
Afterward, enjoy some free time to browse in the gift shop or grab a bite to eat from The Shire's Rest Café (at your own expense) before making your way back to the port.
