Hobbiton


Tours of the Hobbiton village movie set are available in Matamata, New Zealand. Visitors can see the remnants of the original Hobbiton village set from The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy.
The remnants of the LOTR movie set are on picturesque private farmland near Matamata in the North Island of New Zealand. There are spectacular views across to the Kaimai Ranges from the rolling green hills of the farm, which is a working sheep and beef unit.
The Hobbiton movie set has been returned to its natural state. However, hobbit holes and some structures from the film set are still present.
Your tour guide will escort you through the 10-acre site, recounting fascinating details of how the Hobbiton set was created.Tours of the Hobbiton movie set depart at 9.30am, 10.45am, 12pm, 1.15pm, 2.30pm and 3.45pm each day. Over summer we also offer twilight tours leaving at 5pm.
