• Afternoon: Hobbiton™ Movie Set – Journey to the rolling hills of Matamata. Step into the real, intact 12-acre movie set from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, explore a detailed Hobbit Hole, and wrap up the afternoon with a complimentary drink at the Green Dragon™ Inn before a smooth, relaxing drive home.

🎟️ Need Attraction Tickets? We Can Handle It!

Your flat-rate charter covers all transport logistics, fuel, road tolls, and your driver-guide. Attraction entry fees are not automatically included in the base price.

However, we can fully organize and pre-book your entries for you! Because attractions like Hobbiton and Waitomo operate on strict timed entry slots and sell out months in advance, simply let us know your group details after booking your van, and we will coordinate the custom ticket add-ons together.
