Experience two of New Zealand’s most iconic attractions on this small group day tour to the Hobbiton Movie Set and Waitomo Glowworm Caves. This adventure blends the magic of Middle-earth with the natural wonder of glowworm-lit caves, offering a perfect mix of cinematic history and breathtaking nature.
Your day begins with pick-up from your Auckland City accommodation, followed by a scenic drive with full commentary from your experienced guide. The first stop is a cozy café, where you can grab a quick snack or coffee before heading to Hobbiton.

A highlight of the tour is the chance to explore inside a Hobbit Hole, where you can try out a hobbit-sized bed, sit at the dining table, and admire the incredible attention to detail. Before indulging in a sumptuous buffet lunch at the Party Marquee, enjoy a complimentary ale, cider, or ginger beer at the Green Dragon Inn.
After lunch, the tour continues through beautiful countryside to the Waitomo Glowworm Caves.
