The Hobbiton - the enchanting New Zealand farm that was the

set of the film trilogies ‘The Lord of the Rings’ and ‘The Hobbit’is one of the most marvelous places one can be at. The tour of Hobbiton shows you the 44 Hobbit holes, with cute colourful doors. The fun part is that many of them are built to size and others so big that the hobbits seem like dwarves. Highlights include a tour of the lush pastures of the shire and fascinating visits to the Party Tree, Bilbo’s Bag End home and the Green Dragon Inn. There are eight seasonal gardens with real vegetables and an orchard with towering trees - some real and some meticulously crafted using a fiber-glass bark and silk leaves. Apples, Pears, and oak- you name it. Colourful flowers, from roses and ivies to Foxgloves and Magnolias, give life to the set. This idyllic village, with working props, gives us a life-like fantasy experience. To experience its mystical glory, millions of people from all over the world flock to the Hobbiton every year. Tours are free for children aged 9 and under!

The party tree unlike the rest of the other trees is a real tree.
