Descrição
Aproveite um dia inteiro, aventura tudo incluído em Wellington, a casa da Terra-média. Visite alguns locais incríveis dos filmes do Senhor dos Anéis, desfrute de um delicioso almoço e visite o famoso Weta Workshop, onde os filmes foram criados. Somos o Lord of the Rings original de Wellington e estamos operando desde 2002. Anteriormente Rover Rings Tours [antes Covid], Welly Rings Tours tem orgulho em mostrar-lhe Wellington como a Terra-Média.

Opções de passeio
Itinerário
Mergulhe no coração de Wellywood e visite o Weta Workshop, uma oficina de efeitos físicos que criou todos os adereços, armaduras, armas, figurinos, miniaturas e próteses para os filmes O Senhor dos Anéis e Hobbit. Aprenda os segredos da magia do cinema em um tour pelos bastidores feito por um funcionário da Weta, que explicará o processo criativo por trás de dar vida a esses filmes. Você também terá a oportunidade de tirar fotos com vários personagens e armas, além de presentear-se com um ou dois souvenirs, se desejar.
Desfrute de uma vista panorâmica deslumbrante do porto e da cidade a partir do mirante do Monte Victoria. Seu guia falará sobre os pontos de referência que você pode ver do topo e o ajudará a tirar fotos. O Monte Victoria está sempre na lista de coisas para fazer em Wellington, então pensamos em poupar o trabalho de subir a colina para chegar lá!
Passe pelo Embassy Theatre, que foi usado para receber duas estreias mundiais de filmes da Terra Média: O Retorno do Rei e Uma Jornada Inesperada. Seu guia compartilhará histórias e fotos de como Wellington foi literalmente transformada no meio da Terra-média.
Desça até as encostas arborizadas do vizinho Outer Shire, onde nossos guias especializados explicarão o processo de produção de filmes e entreterão você com histórias de como os filmes do Senhor dos Anéis ganharam vida. Você seguirá os passos de Frodo e dos Hobbits enquanto eles iniciavam sua jornada para destruir o Um Anel. Você verá o "atalho para cogumelos", "saia da estrada" e se esconderá dos Black Riders antes de fugir para a balsa Buckleberry. Você terá a chance de recriar algumas das cenas mais famosas de A Sociedade do Anel e enlouquecer suas transmissões nas redes sociais!
Desfrute de um banquete digno de um Hobbit para recarregar as baterias para mais locações de filmes à tarde
Veja uma seção do Grande Rio Anduin enquanto a Irmandade se dirige para Parth Galen
Harcourt Park, também conhecido como Jardins de Isengard. Aqui você verá como esse parque normal e cotidiano foi transformado nas cenas em que Gandalf cavalgava até Saruman em busca de conselho e os bruxos caminhavam pelos jardins discutindo sua situação. Foi aqui também que os orcs começaram a derrubar as árvores quando foi revelado que Saruman havia se voltado para o lado negro...
Parque Regional Kaitoke, uma impressionante floresta tropical temperada com mil anos de idade. Este foi usado como local para a bela Rivendell, a última casa caseira a leste do mar. Aqui você mergulhará no cenário mágico e aprenderá como a área foi transformada na casa de Elrond, no quarto de Frodo e na ponte onde Arwen e Aragorn se beijam. Você pode liberar seu elfo interior e tirar uma foto reencenando uma famosa imagem de Legolas e então recriar a cena em que Frodo lidera a recém-formada Irmandade em direção a Mordor, posando em frente à torre do portão de Rivendell, que é a única réplica da estrutura do Senhor dos Anéis no toda a Nova Zelândia fora de Hobbiton. Você também verá uma cena dos Vaus de Isen, onde Eomund foi encontrado por Éomer no início de As Duas Torres, e terá a chance de cruzar uma ponte giratória e visitar uma gigante árvore nativa de Rimu de 800 anos e aprender algo da flora e da fauna da Nova Zelândia.

The tour was so worth it. Wellington’s weather was not playing nicely, but Marc was an exceptional tour guide who shared interesting stories and experiences while showing us film locations. It is a tour I would happily do again!
Marc was amazing. Very knowledgeable, funny and a great guide to spend the day with. Our son simply loves Marc, and even though we have been travelling for over six months, been on over 150 tours, Marc is in his top three.... Thank you, Marc, for an amazing day
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family had such a great day in our tour. Knowing that Marc ranks among your top guides after more than 150 tours, is truly humbling. We are lucky to have a lot of amazing guides. We'll be sure to pass on your kind words to Marc. Thank you for choosing to explore Middle-earth with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Wellington for another adventure someday! Ngā mihi, The Wellington Rings Tours Team
Unmissable for any LOTR fan!!! Robbie is one of the best storytellers that I have ever met - his extensive participation as an extra in the LOTR trilogy made him an absolute insider… Do not hesitate to book this tour! The connection that you’ll experience to actual filming locations (where your imagination takes over and transports you back to the movies) is astounding!! Highly, highly recommended - the 8 hours passed by in the blink of an eye.
Thank you Philip so much for your fantastic review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your day exploring Middle-earth with Robbie. His firsthand experience on the films and passion for storytelling truly make the locations come alive. It's wonderful to know that the tour helped transport you back into the world of The Lord of the Rings. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Wellington one day. Ngā mihi, The Wellington Rings Tours Team
This tour was excellent. There were multiple locations used around Wellington, and we visited them all. From some of the River Anduin scenes, to where the Hobbits tumbled down the side of the hill as they are escaping Farmer Maggot. Even the spot where they hid under the tree from the black rider, though this tree was just a prop in the film you can still see where they hid. This was just in the morning. Then to top it off we drove past Stone Street Studios (where the looked to be setting up for the Hunt for Gollum) which was cool and then onto Weta Workshop to see all the props and how they were made for the films even getting the chance to pick up some swords and dress up. And it was interesting to see some of the other projects that Weta have worked on, not just Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit Lunch was included and afterwards, we visited the Forrest where Rivindell was filmed, took pictures and got to dress up and get some great photos. We also got to drive past the quarry where Helms Deep and Minas Tirith were built however since this is a working quarry there is no public access. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting and even had some behind the scenes stories as she worked on the Lord of the Rings films. Overall an excellent day
Thank you Naila for taking the time to share your experience! We're so pleased you enjoyed discovering the filming locations around Wellington and getting a glimpse behind the scenes of the movies. From iconic scenes at Mont Victoria to Wētā Workshop and Rivendell.... It sounds like you made the most of the day. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to your guide. One of the things that makes our tours special is that many of our guides were directly involved in the films, whether as extras, in production, or helping create the magic behind the scenes. Thank you for choosing to explore Middle-earth with us, and we hope to see you again on a future adventure. Ngā mihi, The Wellington Rings Tours Team

Had a wonderful and memorable time. Our tour guide Grant was so friendly, approachable and helpful. He had an endless supply of fascinating tidbits about Wellington, its flora and fauna, and of course all about the LOTR filming process that I didn't know about, even as a decades long fan! Thoroughly enjoyed my delightful pilgrimage to Rivendell. Highly recommend this tour!

A surprising and enjoyable tour around the LOTR locations near to Wellington. Our guide, Garth, was very adept at bringing to life the scenes that were filmed at these sometimes innocuous places. The Weta Workshop included tour was fascinating and fun. A must for LOTR afficionados.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed discovering the Lord of the Rings filming locations around Wellington. Garth has a real talent for helping guests see Middle-earth in places that might otherwise seem ordinary, and we're delighted that brought the experience to life for you. We're also glad you enjoyed the Wētā Workshop visit. They are magician on making physical stuff for movies. Thank you for joining us, and for recommending the tour to fellow Tolkien fans!
