No. As part of gaining permission to film in the spectacular locations, the producers were required to dismantle all sets except for Hobbiton. 
We specialise in showing you where specific scenes were filmed. Many of the movie locations are recognisable on our trips and your guide will give you insights into the stories behind them.

We will pick you up and drop you at any central accommodation or information centres.

The Glenorchy trip include an easy 15 minute (return) nature walk to a LOTR scene over a formed trail. Clients have the option of staying in or near the vehicle if they wish at any of the stops on any of our tours.

6 seater 4WD Land Rover or Land Cruiser.

This full-day tour covers much ground to deliver the signature scenes shot around the Queenstown region.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

First, head west to Glenorchy and Paradise before returning to Queenstown for lunch followed by Arrowtown and Gibbston before finishing in Skippers Canyon.&nbsp;Refreshments of tea, coffee, hot chocolate accompanied by biscuits and cake are served both morning and afternoon and a light lunch is supplied in one of the Queenstown cafes.

&nbsp;

Travel along the Wakatipu Lake edge to the small hamlet of Glenorchy.&nbsp;This portion is very scenic with many photo stops along the way and in the Paradise region of Mount Aspiring National Park, short walks on flat forest track are easy and the road is a mixture of seal and gravel.

&nbsp;

The afternoon scenery is more rugged, with short periods of rough ground and river crossings.&nbsp;The tour visits Gibbston Valley area, Arrowtown and the Skippers Canyon Road which is high and windy but with very dramatic scenery.

&nbsp;

Short walks are on well-managed surfaces and the opportunity to pan for elven gold is beside the river on uneven ground.

&nbsp;

Content of the tours includes the settings for The Ford of Bruinen, Gladden Fields, The Pillars of the Kings, the exodus from Edoras, Warg Battle, Misty Mountains, Ithilien Camp, Oliphants, Caradhras, Lothlorien, Fangorn, Gap of Rohan, Isengard, Dunharrow and many backgrounds to the scenes.
