Inside the Hobbit Holes! FULL Hobbiton Set Tour in New Zealand
Join us as we visit the incredible Hobbiton Movie Set in New Zealand, the real-life location used to bring the Shire to life in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movie trilogies. In this video, we take you on our complete Hobbiton Movie Set tour, exploring the beautiful Hobbiton village and some of its most famous movie locations. If you're planning a visit to Hobbiton, this video will give you a great idea of what to expect and whether the experience is worth adding to your New Zealand itinerary. We explore Bag End, the home of Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, and explain its connection to some of the most memorable scenes from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. We also visit the Party Tree and Party Field, where Bilbo's famous 111th birthday party was filmed, as well as the Mill, Stone Bridge, village pathways and many of the beautifully detailed Hobbit Holes. One of the highlights of our visit is Bagshot Row, where we get the opportunity to go inside a Hobbit Hole and see the incredible interior details that help bring Hobbiton to life. We also visit the famous Green Dragon Inn, where our tour includes a complimentary Southfarthing drink. We'll show you what the Green Dragon is like, explain the food options and share information about the current cost of visiting Hobbiton. We'll also show you what happens at The Shire's Rest, including the wait for the Hobbiton bus and the narrated journey through the surrounding New Zealand countryside before arriving at the movie set. Along the way, we share some fascinating background about how Sir Peter Jackson discovered this location, why this particular farm was chosen to represent the Shire and how Hobbiton eventually became the permanent attraction you can visit today. 🧙♂️ In this Hobbiton tour we'll see: • Hobbiton Movie Set • Bag End – Bilbo & Frodo's home • Bagshot Row and a Hobbit Hole interior • Bilbo's 111th Birthday Party location • The famous Party Tree • Gandalf's Cutting • Hobbit Holes and the Shire village • The Hobbiton Mill • The iconic Stone Bridge • The Green Dragon Inn • Southfarthing drinks • The Shire's Rest Café • The bus journey into Hobbiton • Beautiful New Zealand countryside • Movie locations from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit If you're planning a New Zealand holiday, a Lord of the Rings pilgrimage, or simply love movies and spectacular scenery, Hobbiton is an experience that's difficult to miss. 📍 Hobbiton Movie Set – Matamata, Waikato, New Zealand If you enjoy our travel guides, cruise videos, holiday vlogs and destination tips, please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Cooksexplore for more adventures from around the world.
