Private day trip from Auckland to Hobbiton and Waitomo Caves with hotel/airport/cruise pickup, guided tours, Green Dragon drink, lunch, and all entry tickets included.

Tour Overview

Make the most of your time with a private day trip from Auckland that combines two of New Zealand’s icons in one seamless itinerary: the Hobbiton™ Movie Set and the Waitomo Glowworm Caves. Enjoy convenient pickup from your hotel, the airport, or the cruise port, then relax in an air-conditioned vehicle with Wi-Fi, bottled water, snacks, and an experienced driver-guide.

Begin at Hobbiton for an immersive, guided walking tour of the Shire. See famous film locations including hobbit holes, The Mill, and the Double-Arched Bridge, and finish with a complimentary drink at the Green Dragon™ Inn. After a break for lunch (included), continue to Waitomo for a one-hour guided cave experience that ends with a silent boat ride beneath thousands of twinkling glowworms.

Your private tour includes all entry tickets and guided tours, lunch, coffee/tea, and alcoholic beverages, plus door-to-door transport. Infant seats can be requested in advance, and the experience is suitable for all fitness levels. At day’s end, return to Auckland with drop-off at your original pickup point.
