HOBBITON, NEW ZEALAND


HOBBITON??.Did you ever heard about it??Have you watched 'TheLord of the Rings' film??If yes then you will know..I am really attracted with this Hobbiton movie set tour..Continue your reading okey.. :)

Hobbiton is a village in the Shire. It is one of the older villages located in that land, and is roughly in the center, geographically. It is the home of many illustrious Hobbits, including Bilbo Baggins, Frodo Baggins, and Samwise Gamgee. Notable locations in Hobbiton include the Mill and the Baggins' hill- mansion, Bag End. During the War of the Ring, Saruman's treachery destroyed much of the Shire, and Hobbiton suffered greatly. The Old Mill had been replaced with a noxious factory-like structure, and many trees cut down.
After the servants of Saruman had been expelled from the Shire, Sam Gamgee used magic soil from the garden of Elf-Queen Galadriel to heal the Shire in general, but with particular attention to Hobbiton area.


Discover the real Middle-earth on the most picturesque private farmland near Matamata in the North Island of New Zealand, where you can visit the Hobbiton Movie Set  from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit film trilogy in a fascinating two-hour guided tour.

The set has been completely rebuilt and can be seen as it appeared in the films.The Green Dragon Inn is now open and is a special feature of our tours. All tours groups visit the inn as part of their tour and receive a complimentary refreshment.There are spectacular views across to the Kaimai Ranges from the rolling green hills of the movie set, which is still a working sheep and beef farm.
As the Hobbiton Movie Set is located on a real New Zealand farm, you are also offered  the opportunity to cuddle and bottle feed the pet lambs.You can relax and soak up the unique atmosphere with a great cup of coffee or a light meal in The Shires Rest Cafe, which is also available for functions, conferences or other occasions. Visit The Shire Store (below the cafe) for some special souvenirs to remind you of your visit.
