Visite panoramique du Seigneur des Anneaux - Glenorchy (demi-journée)

Had a wonderful morning tour with Hayden. Pickup was convenient and seamless and our group was small, making the experience more personalized and comfortable. I quite enjoyed all the little stops we made on our way to Glenorchy & Paradise, it was nice to break up the trip and witness firsthand some locations where the movies were filmed. Hayden has excellent knowledge of the behind-the-scenes involved in the making of the movies, and he shared a lot of fascinating insight about the native plants and animals, too. His wonderful sense of humor made the tour feel not only informative but also fun! He also expertly maneuvered the vehicle for some thrilling river crossings and exciting off-roading. The tour ran from around 8 am - 12 pm. I wish I had booked a full day tour; it is well worth the money for such an unforgettable experience. Thank you Hayden and Nomad Safaris!

Our family of four really enjoyed our trip with Angelo. He was informative and interesting and so much fun! We all took several LOTR photos opportunities (my 21 year old took a couple of photos from the Wolverine movie as well!). We were lucky enough to have great weather too. Highly recommend.

Brilliant morning tour with stops along Lake Wakatipu, in Glenorchy and in Paradise valley and the forest.

Friendly and knowledgable tour guide. He took time at each film location to go over the background information and camera angles. At the flooded Isengard film location, he brought some props to dress us up as a wizard/hobbit for pictures! Highly recommend.

Awesome tour! Peter was very upbeat and knowledgeable… not only about the LOTR but also local info. We had a great time and would recommend this to anyone.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and he did pick us up from our hotel. However, there were no drinks or snacks provided which was advertized and shown in the picture. They said the tour could be cancelled due to bad weather but despite heavy rain, the tour went on and it was too late for us to cancel and get a refund. With the heavy rain, you could not see much from many of the sites. The view of the mountains was completely washed out and we froze in the cold rain.

We had the best half day tour with Nomad Safaris. Our guide Justin was the best- we talked about LOTR books and movies, filming locations, other movies filmed in the area, general history about Queenstown and the surrounding areas, etc. He went above and beyond to get the best photos for us to bring home and was great to have as a guide. We were served biscuits, banana bread, and options of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate at one of our last stops. We then had the opportunity to put on elven cloaks and do some pretend sword fighting where the battle of Isengard was filmed. We were dropped off in Glenorchy, and Justin again gave us wonderful recommendations for lunch and what to do for a couple of hours until our afternoon adventure. We would absolutely book another tour for different filming locations if we go back to Queenstown.

A great tour! We got to see several of the locations where the LOTR was filmed and even act out a couple of scenes. And the tour was also great for fabulous scenery and informative information on the history of the Queenstown and Glenorchy region in addition to LOTR lore.

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour, both from the commentary of our guides, Justin and Ellen, on Lord of the Rings lore, and also for the spectacular scenery and information on the history of the Queenstown area. We highly recommend this tour.
