G Adventures - 15 Days
Best for: First‑time visitors who want a small‑group adventure covering both islands, with room to plug in fandom stops like Weta Workshop along the way.
Vibe: Active, social, and varied: caves, marine wildlife, Māori heritage, and city time with free moments to chase your own “this feels like a movie” locations.
Pick this if: You want a broad New Zealand sampler with built‑in highlights and the flexibility to add geeky extras without committing to a fully LOTR‑themed trip.
Trafalgar - 12 Days
Best for: Travelers who want a comfortable escorted tour that still hits key fandom touchpoints like Hobbiton and the All Blacks Experience.
Vibe: Classic guided touring with a focus on the best of both islands; from geothermal wonders to Queenstown vistas plus memorable food and wine along the way.

Costsaver - 9 Days
Best for: Value‑conscious travellers who want core sights covered and the freedom to decide how geeky (or not) to go with their add‑on experiences.
Vibe: Essentials‑focused itinerary with 15 Choice Experiences; think Hobbiton, cruises, and other activities you can mix and match to suit your interests and budget.
Pick this if: You like having structure and support, but want to "Choose Your Own Adventure" say “yes” to Hobbiton, “no thanks” to boat tours, and make the trip your own.
Goway - 17 Days
Best for: Dedicated Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit fans who want the ultimate, no‑regrets pilgrimage to as many Middle‑earth filming locations as possible.
Vibe: Deluxe, feature‑packed journey combining an extensive list of LOTR sites (Hobbiton, Weta Workshop, Edoras, Rivendell and more) with wineries, cruises, Māori culture, and iconic natural wonders.
Pick this if: You’ve dreamed of Middle‑earth for years and want the “do it all” experience—seeing the landscapes behind your favourite scenes while still enjoying the best of Aotearoa New Zealand.
