Thanks Ngaire! I'm glad you both enjoyed the tour. Proof that Lord of the Rings can be for locals as well!

So good
Difficult to beat a tour from someone who actually worked with Peter Jackson. Phenomenal experience!

Thanks Oscar! We are very lucky to have several people on our staff who worked on the films as well as several more with other film industry experience. This means we're well placed to share stories and anecdotes that you won't hear anywhere else.

Für Fans zu empfehlen
Für Fans zu empfehlen, für Nicht-Fans von "der Herr der Ringe" eher weniger. Warum? Die Tour startet per Bus, der einem nach Absprache auch direkt am Hotel in Wellington abholt. Schon geht es zum ersten Drehort - Doch auf Grund der Gesetze in NZ müssen Drehorte 100% zurück gebaut werden. Man sieht also bei den meisten Drehorte keinerlei Rückstände vom Film - es barucht schon Fantasie. Der Guide hält dabei Fotos der Szenen hoch und weist z.B. auf Bäume hin zur Orientierung, das hat sehr gut funktioniert und als Fan konnte man sich schon gut rein versetzen. Highlight der Tour bleibt jedoch der Besuch bei der Requisiten-& Design-Schmiede Weta! Der Lunch hat mich sehr positiv überrascht. Statt einem einfachen Standard-Snack ging es in ein gutes Cafe und man konnte von einer breiten Karte auswählen. Die Fahrt ging Mittags bis nach Rivendell, rd. 1h von Wellington, hier gab es dann tatsächlich auch den Torbogen von Rivendell etc. zu sehen. Als Nicht-Fan, bzw. wenn man die Filme nicht gesehen hat, dürfte einiges verloren gehen, dann ist es womöglich einfach zu schwer sich reinzufinden. In dem Fall sollte man aber nicht auf den Weta-Besuch separat verzichten ;-)
