Hobbiton n Te Puia are obviously fantastic tourist destinations. What captured my attention was the availability of resources of the tour and the way they are managing it so everything is well orchestrated. I was the only one of the initial team to go to Hobbiton so Herms drove me there then drove me again to Te Puia to catch the activities there with the rest of the group and back to Auckland. Chris and Herms were sharing a lot of local information which added a lot of interest to an otherwise boring trip. Kudos also to Louise for an on the dot pick up

This tour is amazing and on top of that the weather was perfect! Daryl from FlexiTours was very friendly, knowledgeable and a safe driver. We learned a lot about New Zealand, the Maori culture and Hobbiton. The van was clean and comfortable. The Hobbiton Movie Set was awesome! Another must when you visit New Zealand. The history of this movie set is amazing and the hobbit house is wonderful and so cute in the inside. Thank you to the Anderson family too for making all this possible. To end the tour you get to relax and try the beer from the Green Dragon Inn. Rotorua is a little farther away but it’s a nice town. Buffet lunch was great at the Te Puia which served Maori and New Zealand food. Everybody was friendly. I would say that this is a good tour combination. You get to just sit back, enjoy the view and learn new stuff until you get to your destinations.

Great experience freedom start to finish. Flexi Tours was communicative prior to my arrival in Auckland about what to expect. The van was clean and comfortable and our guide, Louise was amazing. I'd absolutely recommend this tour.

Very kind and quick reply. Trip was well organized. All was on time which was scheduled. Mini van was clean and comfortable, too. Our quide Darren was very kind and frendly. His telling about New Zealnd, Maori, etc. was very helpful for me understanding about New Zealand. Also lunch buffet at Te Puia was good. Of course Hobbiton and Te Puia, it was cool. Kia ora!!!
