Accommodation & Tour Packages
Welcome to the Southern Lakes of New Zealand. Home to Middle-earth.

Spend time in the land that JRR Tolkien wrote about but never saw. An enormous amount of the trilogy’s outdoor scenes were shot in this area and rumour has it that The Hobbit may also be filmed here.

We have crafted two accommodation packages for you to look at...

Each includes an exhilarating jet boat ride and the iconic Trails of Middle-earth tour, New Zealand’s most comprehensive LOTR tour.

We look forward to taking you deep into Middle-earth soon.

   
  Gift Vouchers are also available for Queenstown tours. Use our Bookings page to request one.
