She found special tours and activities that matched my interest, particularly anything related to the Lord of the Rings!

Piper at First Light helped me plan the trip of a lifetime. She listened to all of my thoughts and ideas and crafted a custom itinerary just for me. She found special tours and activities that matched my interest, particularly anything related to the Lord of the Rings! The itinerary was extremely detailed and came with lots of information about other activities in the area if I had additional time. I traveled through both islands and saw so much in three weeks! I ran into very few problems, and when I did, Piper and other staff at First Light responded right away. I was traveling solo most of the time and I felt completely safe and supported. I would highly recommend having First Light plan your trip to New Zealand.

LOTR (Hobbit) Filming Locations Tour

It is little wonder that Peter Jackson selected New Zealand to bring Tolkien's Middle-earth to the big screen. Gentle streams dissect emerald green valleys as giant mountains stand sentinel and ancient glaciers tumble to the sea. Embark on an unexpected journey and get ready for an awesome self drive LoTR (Hobbit) filming locations tour.
