We are very happy we were able to squeeze this tour into our schedule. Hobbiton is one of our favorite stops so far even though it was a rainy day. Hobbiton does have umbrellas for free to use. The Hobbiton guide was fun and engaging. The Navi Tours driver was professional.
Thank you for joining our tour! We’re happy you enjoyed Hobbiton despite the rain and appreciated our driver. We hope to see you again on your next visit to New Zealand!
This was a long but very relaxing drive to Hobbiton and back. Hobbiton is beautiful. I recommend it for everyone.
Thank you for joining our Hobbiton tour and for your kind words! We’re glad you found the drive relaxing and enjoyed the beauty of Hobbiton. It truly is a special place, and we appreciate your recommendation. We hope to see you again on another adventure!
We had a free day on a tour trip and found this one as we were wondering what to do. I was only able to see one Lord of the Rings, but it was so much fun and soothing and quite pricey, but I'm so glad I took part. One downside was that many of the guides were hard to hear while traveling with other groups in large groups. How about introducing a guiding receiver? I thought so.
貴重なご感想をお寄せいただき、誠にありがとうございます。 作品をあまりご覧になっていなくてもツアーをお楽しみいただけたとのこと、大変うれしく拝見しました。癒しの時間をお過ごしいただけたようで何よりです。 また、ガイドの音声が聞き取りづらかったとのご指摘もありがとうございます。快適にご参加いただけるよう、お客様からのご意見を励みに、より満足度の高いツアーを目指してまいります。 またニュージーランドでお会いできる日をスタッフ一同心よりお待ちしております。
The English garden, the fields, the house, they were all lovely and scenic, and you didn't have to understand "The Lord of the Rings" or "The Hobbit" to enjoy it. The local tour guide, a woman, was cheerful and comfortable. We enjoyed the Wildlife Preserve and Takhini Hot Spring tour and also we were very happy to see Aurora on our last night.
素敵なレビューをありがとうございます。 イングリッシュガーデンや美しい景色をお楽しみいただけたとのこと、また、現地ガイドや弊社スタッフの対応にもご満足いただけたと伺い、大変うれしく思います。 ShihoとMiyoshiにもお客様からのお言葉を必ず伝えさせていただきます。 今後も皆さまに心地よく楽しい時間をお過ごしいただけるよう、スタッフ一同努めてまいります。 またニュージーランドでお会いできる日を楽しみにしております。
It’s delightful! The full size Hobbit house tour was the best part. We loved the intricate details. Our guide was great.
Dear Linda, Thank you for your wonderful review. We are truly honored to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed our Hobbiton tour. Thank you for your kind words about our guide as well. Your feedback is truly encouraging and means a lot to them.
My dream of visiting the filming site of Lord of Rings finally came true with this trip. The Hobbiton movie set was great! We were very lucky being able to enter the a Hobbiton hole to see its interiors. A very fun experience!
Dear Daphne, Thank you for the wonderful review. I'm sure it will help others who are considering a visit to Hobbiton. We’re delighted to have been a part of your journey to such a highly anticipated destination. Please do reach out if you visit New Zealand again!
My wife and I went on a tour of Hobbit Village and Waitomo Aardvark. On this day, we were on our own tour and learned a lot about New Zealand along the way. I asked a lot of questions and asked about Recommendations, and I often went to every restaurant I told them about. It was a limestone cave and aardvark tour in the morning, but it was actually a tour taught in Japanese, with about a dozen locals following me a little further behind. I was able to spend a lot of time looking around the limestone caves in such a way that the three of us could virtually monopolize the space. The Japanese Guide was detained because the ship approaching the earthen firefly was over capacity. We arrived at the hub of the Hobbit Village Tour at just noon and had a slow lunch thanks to all the procedures that were done while we were having lunch. The Hobbit village tour miraculously missed the rain forecast and we were able to see the village in the best weather. The tour was filled with information about the actual set and behind-the-scenes stories about the movie. My wife and I had such a special affection for going to Hobbit Village that we are really grateful for making it happen in such a best way. Thanks to you, I think I could have done more in that limited time. Still, the Hobbit village was so well-built that I think there is still a lot to see. I thought I would definitely come again, and I would ask Navitours to come again. Thank you so much for making one of our dreams come true.
