Reviews: Auckland: Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Small-Group Tour & Lunch
Guest User2026-02-05
Liam was a fantastic guide! He shared many interesting facts about New Zealand, its culture, origins, and history along the way. He chose beautiful routes and even took a different one on the way back so we could see even more of the New Zealand landscape. The trip was incredibly well-organized! The tour of Hobbiton was beautiful! Lunch was also delicious, with generous portions and a great restaurant offering a wide selection. Visiting the glowworm cave was magical. Just be aware that photography isn't allowed inside. On the way to Hobbiton, we stopped at a great breakfast spot, and on the way back, we had ice cream. All in all, a fantastic trip that I highly recommend!★

Reviews: From Auckland: Hobbiton & Hamilton Gardens Small Group Tour

It rained in Hobbiton but we still had a great time. Hamilton Gardens was a bit difficult to navigate and it was hard to manage our time.★

Reviews: Hobbiton Movie set & Waitomo Caves Small Group Tour From Auckland
Guest User2024-06-26
This was an amazing tour, Adil was very friendly and gave excellent advice. Be sure to research the weather for Hobbiton as it is a fully outdoor tour. Be prepared for a long day! Totally worth it!★

Reviews: Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Tour from Auckland with Lunch
Guest User2025-09-02
David is amazing tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and professional. The tour is a great experience that is hard to miss if your are visiting New Zealand. The Waitamo Cave tour is more impressive than the description. The hobbitown is like a paradise. We were able to get free drinks during our trip. Umbrella is available to borrow if it starts raining. We were able to go inside the hobbit house and check out the fine furnitures. These two places are worth the trip.★
