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!

The Best Tour I’ve Ever Been On

This tour was absolutely incredible from start to finish (I might be biased because I love LOTR) Solomon was our tour guide and driver, couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable professional person. The weather, locations, fellowship and costumes were all working together to make this day the best. I can’t get over it I’ll talk about this experience for the reminder of my life. Thank you very much Solomon I wish you the best in everything you do. And Pure Glenorchy Tours thank you for a well organised adventure. Ps don’t forget to bring cash so you can buy some memorabilia like I did.

Wow that means a lot to read. Sharing those places with fellow fans is always special. I am glad the weather, the group and a bit of dress up magic all came together for such a memorable day. Solomon, PG

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.

The way to (nerd) Paradise

I had a very nice half day trip with Dan. He was a great and funny Guide and kept the best for last - Paradise. Just for that this trip was worth it. But you also get to put on costumes and handle some wapons. A really fun day and absolutely recommended.

Paradise has a way of stealing the spotlight. I am so glad Dan made the journey memorable and that you embraced the costumes and swords. That is what Middle earth adventures are all about. Solomon, PG
