Geek out on all things Lord of the Rings on this full day across Wellington incorporating Weta Workshops and actual film locations from the movies. Youβll meet some of the crew at Weta Cave as well as perhaps reenacting a scene or two at the different locations.
Meet your guides from your preferred Wellington location and head for the hills. Admire the view from atop Mt Victoria before heading into the βOuter Shireβ for your first stop.
Then itβs on to the Weta Cave in Miramar where you tour the museum before viewing a short documentary showing the film making exploits of Sir Peter Jackson and his remarkable team. This is followed by a fascinating βWindow into the Workshopβ exhibition, showing film props and weaponry with the artists themselves describing how the artefacts were created.
Enjoy lunch at a favourite local spot then head north to the Hutt Valley following the River Anduin and take in the sights of Helms Deep. Stop off at the Gardens of Isengard before heading to your final destination of Rivendell and the Legolas tree before returning to Wellywood at 4pm.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author β including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
