LORD OF THE RINGS


Hey,

Im a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings and I was wondering if anybody knew of any tours that might be available. Would love to see where the film was shot. Thanks heaps :)

RE: LORD OF THE RINGS

Hey Deborah,

My Girlfriend is also a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings and she's taken me on a couple of tours of where the film was shot. There are a few different tours available but the ones we went on were with Wanaka Sightseeing which only takes a max of 5 people and also the Rover Ring Tour which lasts all day. My girlfriend and I had a ball.


RE: LORD OF THE RINGS

Hi, I've heard the Rover Ring Tour is meant to be pretty popular. Its based in Wellington and the tour goes all day.

Hey there,

I was just looking under the attractions on this site and I noticed that they have a Lord of The Rings package. You should check it out, it looks pretty good.

Ok i would suggest you go and check out some of the south island. The best tour i have been on to date is the the milford sound Flight.

It is abosultely amazing, you can see where some of the lord of the rings was filmed. While you are there check out glenorchy and arrow town they also are great places of interest.


RE: LORD OF THE RINGS

Yes i have been on the flight tour, it is unbelieveable. The pilot is great they explain there role in the filming, taking cast, crew and props to and from sets.

This is definately a tour to do. I also reccommend the cruise through milford sound. It is alot more relaxing and you can enjoy wines, great food and people. You will be happy to know that most of the cruises are all day so lunch and dinner is provided.
