Adventures in Middle-earth and Hobbiton

New Zealand, lapped by the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Tasman Sea to the west, is home to Middle-earth, the world of fantasy created by J.R.R. Tolkien for the Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit.Stepping foot in the locations used in the feature films, surrounded by real-life natural landscapes plucked from a postcard, is a truly magical experience.You'll explore North Island and South Island by car, but you'll cross the Cook Strait by plane so as not to waste a single moment of the trip.Everywhere will evoke your favourite sequences from this literary and cinema classic, blurring the lines between reality and fiction among hot springs and lush vegetation, volcanoes and lakes, national parks and towering mountains, and fjords and glaciers.Create your own movie over in these distant lands of Oceania with you in the starring role.

Important remarks

- Driving through New Zealand: 1. To drive in New Zealand, you'll need to get an international driving licence, which is a very simple. Procedure that you can do at any traffic office. 2. The roads are in good conditions, but the terrain means that long detours are needed to reach certain places. 3. Obeying speed limits and drink driving levels are important elements to consider, with severe penalties for offenders.

- Triple rooms in Oceania are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.

- The proposed excursions and tours for each day are purely suggestions, as you can tailor the trip to suit your times, tastes and needs.

- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.

- Hotels usually have cots available. Otherwise, babies will have to share a bed with an adult.

- To pick up your rental car, you'll need a credit (not debit) card in the name of the person who made the booking, who must also be the named driver of the vehicle.

- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
