Though it was a long day, we had the most amazing time on our Journey to Edoras Day Tour. Our guide, Natasha, was so lovely the whole day, with stories of the making of the films. Her knowledge and humour shone through, and our trek up onto the rock culminated in breathtaking views and plenty of time to nerd out.

They cancelled with no notification! We flew 2 flights just for this trip to and from Christchurch at great expense and time! Left us sitting in front of hotel - we had to chase them down- terrible customer service - don’t waste your time and money

It was a wonderful day out, Hammond really made it extra special with all his knowledge of the location and even surrounding areas, also with his incredible stories. Ross was also really friendly and helpful, driving us around, offering to take photos and chatting away. Would really recommend.
