Half Day Lord of the Rings Tour in Wellington

The Best 7 Locations, Not Just Half a Tour!
Rover Tours Half day Lord of the Rings location tour brings together the best 7 locations in both the North and South of Wellington. This is the best way to see Wellington’s Lord of the Rings locations in half a day with the experience of a knowledgeable Lord of the Rings specialist guide.

The first location is explores Mount Victoria and the ‘Wellington greenbelt’ where the Hobbits hid (”get off the Road” and Shortcut to Mushrooms) and were chased by Ringwraiths.  There are numerous scenes here but Rover lists this as only 1 location.

From Mount Victoria they drive north to explore the Hutt Valley. Stops along the way include the Hutt River (Great River Anduin) and Harcourt Park (gardens of Isengard). In Kaitoke Regional Park we include morning/afternoon tea under the elevish trees of the Rivendell location. You also spend time at Minas Tirith and Helms Deep at an old quarry closed to general visitors.

During the tour your guide bring alive the film making process, tells some great forgotten actor stories and updates you on the filming of the upcoming Hobbit film. The small group size ensures all your questions are answered.

The tour last 4 hours and departs the Wellington Visitor Centre @ 8.30am and 1.30pm daily.
