“Hobbiton was overcrowded and you were pushed along to handle the massive crowd. Our group was so large we could barely hear the tour guide. If the groups where smaller I think it would be a better experience That said it was still interesting. And the sets where over the top beautiful”

“I am writing to express my deep frustration and disappointment with the service we received. We paid a maximum price and received minimal service – if any at all. We arrived at the pickup location only two minutes late, and despite this, the Read more”

We especially appreciated the small group size, the comfortable vehicle, and how well everything was organized. The service was excellent from start to finish. Special thanks to Adil and Chris, who took great care of us — they were professional, friendly, and shared lots of fascinating facts along the way. Highly recommended!”

“What a great day, knowledgable guide with a sense of humour, spectacular weather, it is a must see in New Zealand”

“I was actually late by 10 minutes for the tour but Alex saved the Day. He waited for me to catch up the 1st location and endorsed me properly to Milton. I had an amazing day with a bunch of amazing photos! It was a great idea to book with bush and beach! Superb guides and services!”

“Our guide lived in Auckland her entire life. She was familiar with all of the different neighborhoods. She was aware of the architecture, the buildings that had been relocated, and significant individuals who were involved with maintaining the history of the city. We toured the waterfront which was large, and had a deep history of the America’s Cup winning 3x. She was able to drop us at our chosen locations. We enjoyed her and the information about Auckland.”

“Our guide Mike was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and passionate about New Zealand and the Hobbiton history. My wife and I hadn’t seen the movies, but now want to. Our son, who loves Tolkien and the stories, was in heaven. A must stop when visiting Auckland!”
