Description
Experience two of New Zealand’s most popular attractions on a comfortable private day tour from Auckland to the Hobbiton Movie Set and Waitomo Glowworm Caves. Enjoy the flexibility and comfort of private transportation as you travel through the beautiful Waikato countryside with your own professional driver.
Your day begins with a convenient pickup from your Auckland accommodation or an agreed pickup location. Sit back and relax in a comfortable private vehicle while enjoying the changing scenery along the way. The drive takes you through scenic rural landscapes, rolling green hills, farmland, and charming countryside.
Your first major stop is the world-famous Hobbiton Movie Set, the spectacular filming location used for The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movie trilogies. Explore the beautiful Shire landscape and discover famous locations such as Hobbit Holes, the Green Dragon Inn, the Mill, and other iconic movie-set features. Learn more about how the movies were created and enjoy plenty of opportunities to take memorable photos surrounded by the unique scenery of Middle-earth.
After Hobbiton, continue your private journey towards Waitomo, one of New Zealand’s most fascinating natural attractions. At the Waitomo Glowworm Caves, discover an incredible underground world featuring limestone formations, caves, and the famous glowworms. The glowworms create a magical natural display that looks like a star-filled sky above the cave. Your cave experience allows you to appreciate the unique beauty and atmosphere of this remarkable underground environment.
Throughout the tour, your private driver will provide a comfortable and relaxed travel experience, allowing you to enjoy the journey without the stress of driving, navigation, or public transportation. There will also be opportunities to enjoy the scenery and take breaks during the journey, depending on the day’s schedule and travel conditions.
This is a private tour, meaning you travel exclusively with your own group rather than joining a large shared bus. It is an ideal option for couples, families, friends, and small groups looking for a more comfortable and personalised way to explore Hobbiton and Waitomo from Auckland.
Important: Entrance tickets to the Hobbiton Movie Set and Waitomo Glowworm Caves are not included in the tour price. Attraction tickets must be purchased separately by the customer. Please check ticket availability and attraction operating times when planning your visit.
At the end of the experience, relax in your private vehicle and enjoy the scenic drive back to Auckland. This full-day experience combines movie magic, spectacular natural scenery, underground caves, and New Zealand’s famous glowworms in one memorable private tour.
