Door to Door Hobbiton Evening Banquet Tour
Dec 2017 • Friends
The Hobbiton Evening Banquet Tour includes a tour of the movie set followed by a banquet.
Andrew, the tour organiser, took care of all the logistics including purchasing of the tickets. I first contacted Andrew from Perth, WA & he rang me back almost immediately even though it was 10pm NZT.
Apparently, we were the first to take advantage of a Tauranga pick-up, but it’s the way to go. We were able to take advantage of the delicious Hobbit Amber Ale on tab.
I rate the Evening Banquet Tour highly – well organised and a fun evening. Probably one of the best tours I’ve ever done and I’m not a LoTRs aficionado. Thanks Andrew.
