Middle-earth Film Location Tour - Extended EditionThis Lord of the Rings tour is a full day and our most popular tour, it visits
all of the filming locations
for Rivendell where Frodo recovered from his knife attack; the Anduin River where
the Fellowship voyaged to Amon Hen; the river where Aragorn was washed ashore
after the attack of the Wargs; the Gardens of Isengard,
the site of the Orcs Felling the Trees and where Gandalf rode to see Saruman;
go to the Mount Victoria lookout and Buckland Forest where you can race to the
Buckleberry Ferry and "Get off the Road", where the Hobbits hid from the Nazgul/Black
Riders and where they found the mushrooms on the Road; Dunharrow Rohirrim encampment;
visit the quarry used for the filming of Helms Deep in Rohan
and Minas Tirith in Gondor.
You will enjoy an al fresco lunch at one of the region's leading restaurants.
You will be spellbound at the site of Lothlorien - the majestic Fernside Lodge. In 2000 Fernside’s lake was transformed into part of Lothlorien, and then to the Gladden fields. You will see where Smeagol and Deagol fought for the Ring right at lake-side. Fernside’s white bridge is a reminder of the bridge of Lothlorien. Fernside today remains a magical place and a must do for the most avid Lord of the Rings fans. This tour also visits the district of Miramar. Miramar is production central
and the home of Peter Jackson and many of the cast and crew. You will also visit
the Weta Cave for unique souvenirs and an exclusive video of behind-the-scenes
at Weta Workshop. Weta Cave is Wellington's premiere
Lord of the Rings venue. But it is much, much more. It is a place for everyone,
screening the first ever behind the scenes look at Weta and an insight into the
creativity that goes into crafting the art that is Weta. At the specially built
Weta Cave theatrette you can see interviews with co-founders Peter Jackson, Richard Taylor,
Tania Rodger and Jamie Selkirk.
You may also purchase from a wide range of Weta related movie and TV merchandise:
