I visited in December 2023. We were one of the first tour groups to visit the interior home set. It was opened on 20th December 2023 and we visited on 23rd December 2023. It felt great to touch and feel everything on the set.
One thing: I fell in love with the nasturtiums outside Sam's house in the movie. If I ever make it to the Shire, there'd better be lots of nasturtiums at the Gamgee home!
I recall that scenes in one of my favorite movies, "Vertical Limits," were filmed on the snowy hills of New Zealand, portraying them to resemble the high-altitude Siachen Glaciers battleground between India and Pakistan.
@@cjexplores hiya, we’re doing 4 weeks in both North & South Islands and will include whatever the weather permits. Just watched Hamner Springs video. Looks beautiful and oh those pies!!! 🥧
Did you take the standard tour that they offer there or did you do the private tours through klook? It seemed like you had a lot of time in the video to walk around and check things out outside the group. it seemed like if I got the normal tour you can't stray too far from your guide. I'm here in new zealand now and debating what tour to get.
I watched another walkthrough with Matt from Nerd of the Rings channel. Sorry I don't mean to be rude like I'm promoting another channel ( I kinda am oops). Your walkthrough just makes me want to go even more. They would have to get security and take me out kicking and screaming, I don't want to go, I'm HOME! 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for sharing this with us! 🖖😎🤘🇨🇦❤️
I wonder if they have that happen often. I have a feeling that some people would definitely try and stay inside that hobbit house. Hiding in the broom closet or something 😂

We were very lucky with the paradise - it looked so beautiful in the sun!
The Hobbit house interior is amazing! Such incredible attention to detail!😮
Ikr! 🤯 we could just move in there tomorrow if we were allowed 🤣

great video thank you!
Beautiful video! May I know what camera you're using? 😊
Of course, it’s the DJI Pocket 3 😉❤️
at what time was your tour? it is usually really crowded 60 tours a day even in off-months like April and May
Yes it’s a surprisingly very organised place, Hobbiton. We went on an 11 o clock tour on a weekday and had about 20 other people with us 😉
did you go to hamilton? do you have a video at hamilton?
No we didn’t visit Hamilton on this trip, unfortunately we didn’t have time!
Aww I wanna go there, but when I see how much is flight ticket from Paris to New Zealand, I ain’t going
Omg I live in NZ and never been, I’m going for sure now because your video ❤
You definitely must visit! It's so worth it 😍

Hi, yes it was the normal tour! You choose a time slot and then you have a designated tour guide for each group. They allow time for photos etc.
Inspiring video ❤
Are they going to make the inside of Bag End too??
Not sure what their future plans are!!

Bucket list activated!
Get in!!
so absolutely pretty. how fun!
It’s truly magical 🤩
Why is it at the other end of the world? I start digging.....
🤣 it’s the antipodes!
Can you find the hobbits there?
unfortunately not haha but you can go inside their houses!
Not a single person was enjoying some Longbottom Leaf or Old Toby. Sign of the times, I guess.
🤣🤣🤣 straight over my head there sorry mate
@@cjexplores Indeed, few would know the pipe tobacco brands of Middle Earth. I would have just had tea myself 😀
Hallo
Hi 👋
The fact that you're playing this other horrible cheesy music instead of the actual Shire soundtrack is criminal. But I get it. Copyright.
Haha unfortunately we would have to pay a lot of money to have copyrighted music on our vlogs.
Revelation 19,
