Hi Gail, thanks for your kind review, it was nice having you on board. The name is Francesco by the way :D
We absolutely LOVED our tour with trails of middle earth. The guide and owner (a true Tolkien nerd) took us to some incredible locations around arrowtown and Queenstown, had rare and original LOTR artefacts like film call sheets, all the swords, axes and even a replica of Sauron’s hand with the one ring. He made our day so special by filming a few scenes with the props and taking some really cool shots like us disappearing after wearing the one ring. Overall this was one of the most enjoyable experiences in Queenstown and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough if you’re interested in LOTR. He also told us the incredible story of the company and how it’s simultaneously the oldest and newest lotr based tour company in Queenstown - I’m so glad it is back in the hands of true fans.
Amazing tour. Super friendly and passionate and overall just an amazing tour whether you're a lord of the rings fan or not. I'm not the biggest fan of this franchise but it definitely one of the highlights of our trip.
Awesome tour, super friendly guides, beautiful scenery, smooth drive.. so much fun!
Thanks Shane for such an informative and enjoyable tour. It was great to see the local scenery from the Lord of the Rings perspective, as well as other wider information gained, you were a great host.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and found it informative. It was a pleasure to show you the local scenery and share insights from the Lord of the Rings. I'm glad I could be a great host for your experience. Thanks again!
