"The Lord of the Rings" filming place punch card │ Hobbit Village If you are a fan of "The Lord of the Rings", then you must go to the Hobbit Village once, because it is the filming place of the movie. If you are not a fan of "The Lord of the Rings", then you must also go to the Hobbit Village once. Because I have come to the fun places in the North Island, it is not as good as the South Island. It is a pity to miss this place. Details: 501BucklandRd,Hinuera,Matamata,New Zealand Traffic Guide: It is far from the city of Auckland. It is recommended to drive or charter a car. ⏰ Open time: ▶ Visit 10:00-16:30 ▶ Night Tour plus Dinner 16:00-20:00 Tickets: Directly online, a day trip to the Hobbit Village and Firefly Cave, 1400 yuan/person (including the village buffet lunch). The meeting place is near the hotel, hin is convenient~ the price is really not cheap. The expected time: half-day practical tips1⃣️ online Hobbit Village day trips are all English guides, there is no Chinese group (unless you charter the car), only equipped with a Chinese voice interpreter, but the practicality is not strong. The driver is very enthusiastic, enthusiastic and dedicated, but unfortunately I only understand half of it... Ashamed of English teacher 2⃣️ entering the Hobbit Village must follow the tour guide ❗ and follow the rhythm of the tour guide (otherwise it will affect the group in the latter time period), you can't take pictures everywhere without the concept of time. Free activities are not allowed. There are two kinds of Chinese tour groups and English tour groups. If the English level is too good, it is recommended to choose English tour groups. Experienced personally, the Chinese group that participated in, was patched together with a group of loud aunts, every corner has their tireless 360-degree concave shape, everything they want to touch and move, can't wait for the pumpkin to open to see if it is true (The tour guides said that the things here are really not believed) They never listen to the tour guide's explanation. They don't need to know peter jackson The Lord of the Rings Hobbits don't listen to the tour guide's command. Every time they gather, the tour guide shouts several times... 3⃣️ There are options in the day trip. You can eat buffet in the restaurant in the village and send another cup. Drinks, the price is 100+ RMB. It turns out that it is economical to bring some food by yourself. The buffet is crowded. Except for the lamb balls and ginger soda, it is a little better. The other things taste really hard to say. 4⃣️ Do a good job of sun protection and bring good sunglasses. The ultraviolet rays in the big countryside are very sun-dried ~ 5⃣ Firefly Cave. It is recommended to choose a suitable time period to see it, such as July and August. Otherwise, the scenery in the cave is not spectacular. For the safety of fireflies, you must not take pictures. ❗❗

    This scenic spot is very suitable for children, the overall fun is full, the best choice for Chinese group if English is not good, there are many introductions and memories, it is necessary to listen to it, it is a good experience for fans who like the movie ring, we chose Chinese tour guide, but it is obvious that this tour guide is a bit broken, He took half of the people to be a domestic tour group. All kinds of unruly behavior along the way, he was helpless and useless. Those people didn’t listen. Finally, there was a bridge where these people sat on the beam of the bridge to take pictures. It was not allowed. The guide rushed to save them. Finally, they disappeared. They didn’t appear at the meeting place. The tour guide wanted to cry without tears. They were told by the bus driver and other staff in the scenic spot. After waiting for a long time, we could only go. The tour guide didn’t talk to the bus along the way. I felt a little sorry for him. I am also a little ashamed of some of my compatriots who have gone abroad.

    Hobbiton is the filming location of the Hobbit village from the films "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit". There are many places in New Zealand where different parts of the movie were shot, but only Hobbiton was not disassembled after filming, and it is really worth a visit.They take everyone from the main office on big buses, along the way they play videos about the shooting of the film and how it was all built.Then the guide takes you around the territory and tells you everything-shows you.In Hobbiton, you see what you pay so much money for: everything is done very carefully and with love, thought out to the smallest detail, flowers, gardens and vegetable gardens everywhere, not just grass, a group of gardeners works there. The appropriate music is playing. And in general, everything is very, very entourage and mimicry. Gardeners compete to see who will grow the largest pumpkin, etc.

    This is my first time coming here. Before, I was very excited and looking forward to trying this place once. It really didn't disappoint me because it was so beautiful and fun. Truly unforgettable, this place will forever impress me. The people here are very friendly and sociable, which is very valuable. I love this place and hope to come back many times in the future. Thanks a lot!!!

    Visiting the Hobbiton movie set was an enchanting experience! Walking through the lush green hills and charming hobbit holes felt like stepping into the pages of Tolkien's books. The attention to detail was astounding, from the colorful gardens to the intricate craftsmanship of each hobbit house. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing behind-the-scenes stories and trivia about the filming process. Overall, it was a magical journey into LOTR realm.
