Beutiful experience
We did the tour with Nick, very knowledgeable and friendly guide. The most beautiful place was the paradise, although all the tour was worth admiring. Great costumes and weapons as well. Highly recommend

Not worth the money
Not worth the money. The guide refused to give me some of the gluten free cookies after everyone finish eating. Also no one asked me previously if I was gluten free or not.

Au coeur du Seigneur des Anneaux
Etant fan du Seigneur des Anneaux, c'était une expérience à faire! Nous avons été sur différents lieux du tournage. Notre guide illustrait toujours avec les images du film et quelques anecdotes de tournage. Nous avons goûté sur le lieu de tournage de la terre du Milieu et nous avions la possibilité de nous y déguiser. Notre guide nous a également initié à la botanique, en nous citant le nom de quelques plantes et leurs utilisations. Aller-retour en van dans le centre de Queenstown. Je recommande!
