The Hobbiton tour was beyond my imagination. Everything was decorated just like in the movie, and the actual interior was surprisingly beautiful and fantastic. It felt like I was in a fairyland for a moment, and I would like to visit again if I have the chance.

I loved it! So worth it. The weather was so nice when we went. The driver who picked us from the hotel us very kind, and our tour guide inside the hobbiton is soooo good and funny! I will definitely go back next time! Thank you, it was a fun experience. 💕

Amazing tour with one of the best driver/guide. The guide at Cheeky Travel is extremely friendly, and takes extra miles to ensure that you are comfortable. The journey itself is great as well. Hobbiton is beautiful like a garden.

The guide was very friendly. In particular, the course was flexible. The only regret was that the restaurant was a little disappointing. But overall, I thought it was a friendly and pleasant trip. The tour was also good.

We arrived earlier than the reservation time, and the staff could arrange an early tour for us. There were not many people in the morning, and it was a very worthwhile trip! !

Stunning Hobby Village! Departing from Auckland, we arrived at Habi Village and were guided by a professional tour guide for 2 hours. Lively and lively. The beautiful scenery of Hapi Village combined with the good weather that day made it exciting and unforgettable! It is a very recommended itinerary!
