Great half-day visit

Our tour guide was friendly,humorous and he explained a lot of knowledge along the way. He took us to appreciate the beautiful scenery and provided some snacks to keep us warm. I highly recommend this half-day tour to friends who cannot drive themselves.

Magic half day LOTR & top 10 world’s best drives!

Best way to take in a ‘top 10’ world’s best drives, with the Lord of the Rings flavour! Host was brilliant, so knowledgeable not just with LOTR facts but local culture as well. A perfect way to spend a half day!!

Great experience, great tour guide

Really enjoyed the tour as it was good to good to get around and experience another part of queenstown ( without having a car hired). Our tour guide Amy was so lovely, fun and had so much knowledge on LOTR but also a lil local knowledge also. Would have loved to learnt the Maori names of certain places and appreciated that Amy was able to name one places. Would definitely recommend try his tour and thank Amy for just being so great at her mahi!

Thanks so much for your lovely review! We're stoked you enjoyed exploring Queenstown with us — and we'll pass on your kind words to Amy, she’ll really appreciate it. Great feedback on including more te reo Māori place names too — we’ll take that on board. Ngā mihi nui for joining us! - Solomon, PG

Not worth the money

Not worth the money. The guide refused to give me some of the gluten free cookies after everyone finish eating. Also no one asked me previously if I was gluten free or not.
