Go big on nature wowing at the scenic wonders of the geothermal wonderland of Rotorua.
You could take a tour of the Hobbiton Movie Set, where you can step into the lush pastures of the Shire, stroll around the 12-acre set past Hobbit Holes, the Mill and into the world-famous Green Dragon Inn, where you’ll enjoy Hobbit South-farthing beverage to end your own Middle-earth adventure.

Movie buffs can get the best of both worlds on a scenic tour of Glenorchy to discover iconic Lord of the Rings filming locations. Wine-lovers can join a Boutique Wine Tour of Queenstown, sampling Central Otago’s signature Pinot Noir and more at four vineyards. After a day of activity, choose to sit back and relax on an evening cruise across Lake Wakatipu aboard a high-speed catamaran to Walter Peak Station, where you’ll sit down to a mouth-watering BBQ dinner and farm show at the Colonel's Homestead.
