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!

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.

This is a very good tour provided by Expedigo via GetYourGuide. They use newer and comfortable vehicles. The group size is really small (6 max). Our tour guide/driver, John is very friendly and shared his information throughout the journey. Highly recommend this Waitomo caves and the Māori village tour!!
Reviews: Auckland: Private Hobbiton Movie Set & Waitomo Caves Tour
Guest User2025-09-07
We love it! We were picked up right on time and our driver was very kind and professional. The van was super comfortable, and we really appreciated having private transportation ❤️ The Hobbiton tour was amazing!! We arrived with enough time to get breakfast and visit the souvenir store. Our guide was fantastic, and both my brother and I had such a great time! We even received a Hobbiton cup as a “compensation” because they were doing some works in a small part of the field. I barely noticed it… but the detail made the experience even more special. The Waitomo Caves are absolutely stunning! so beautiful that almost look unreal. It truly feels like looking at a million galaxies. Overall, a wonderful experience and definitely one I would highly recommend. A big thank you to our driver for all the helpful tips and details along the way ❤️
