&nbsp;

After complimentary pickup from your central Auckland hotel, leave the city behind as you drive through the Bombay Hills and Hauraki Plains on a specially designed scenic route, where you can discover&nbsp;spectacular scenery flanked by mountains, to reach the Hobbiton Movie Set - a sheep farm used as the filming location for the Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit.

&nbsp;

J.R.R. Tolkien fans will recognize Middle-Earth locales like the 44 hobbit holes, The Mill and The Green Dragon Inn as you learn behind-the-scenes secrets of the epic movies. Then, relax in The Green Dragon with a complimentary ale, stout, cider or ginger beer.

&nbsp;

The group will then depart for the world-famous city of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.backpackerdeals.com/new-zealand/rotorua" style="text-decoration:none">Rotorua</a>&nbsp;passing through the quirky town of Tirau, famously dubbed the &ldquo;corrugated capital of the world&rdquo;. From here, you&#39;ll pass through the Fitzgerald Glade where lush tree ferns line the road with vegetation towering above. Look out for many New Zealand native trees including tawa, rimu, mataī and five species of rātā. Soon, we arrive in Rotorua (literally meaning Second Lake) with optional stops on the shores of Lake Rotorua and Government Gardens for photo opportunities. Lunch at own expense.

&nbsp;

We then travel a few more kilometres to Te Puia where we enter through the magnificently carved gateway before embarking on our fully guided tour with a local Maori guide. Their knowledge and passion make this a memory that you will cherish for a long time as you are guided around the 70ha Geothermal Park, seeing the Pohutu Geyser which naturally erupts up to 30 metres (100 ft) skywards every 30 minutes or so. You will have explained to you the hot springs, the silica terraces, the bubbling mineral-rich mud pools and other pools that have been used for over 100 years for cooking and remedies plus get close up with our most famous bird, the Kiwi.

&nbsp;

After some final gift shopping before leaving Te Puia, you&#39;ll make the journey back to Auckland to your hotel with an optional stop en route for those wishing to taste our world-famous Tip Top Ice Cream.&nbsp;

&nbsp;
