Lord of The Rings Hobbiton Inner World New Zealand || The Movie Set || The Tour

World famous blockbusting movies included scenes from this movie set, located a short drive south of Auckland New Zealand.
Guided tours operate, at the time of our visit, every 10 minutes. The tour starts with a short drive of approximately 10 minutes through the majestic countryside that hosts Inner World.
Our guide was both informative and entertaining. The walking tour takes just under 2 hours, which passes all too quickly. We were very fortunate to have reasonably good weather and were only exposed to some light rain at the very end of the tour.
Don't expect to not share the the site with hordes of similar minded people on tours. Having said that, because the tours are staggered there is no "bunching up" and plenty of time to look, photo, listen and gawk!
Tours can be booked with a lunch seating or dinner seating (extra costs).
At the start point there is a cafe and a shop where you can purchase Hobbit themed gifts. there is plenty of parking if you are self driving. I don't think the tour would be especially suited to people with mobility issues.
All in all, the Boss and I were stoked with the experience, surprisingly.
