What to expect

Tour some of the most famous scenes from the Hobbit movies in a fun and energetic way with these kayaking tours on the lovely Pelorus River! Join the friendly and experienced guides as they take you on an aquatic journey through the "real" Middle Earth, exploring some iconic spots from the trilogy in the picturesque Marlborough region of NZ; travel down one of the most amazing wild rivers in New Zealand along the same route followed in the Desolation of Smaug Hobbit film; stand on the same rocks as Bilbo and his pint-sized friends, pass by wonderful waterfalls and much more. Along the way, you'll be given all the insider information about both the region and filming process and become involved in the spirit of the films in person - all while getting a dose of fresh air and wonderful NZ scenery.

This kayaking tour is the ideal outdoor adventure for Lord of the Rings fans travelling to the Marlborough region all combined with unmatched fun on the water - and with everything you'll need included, there's no better way to experience The Hobbit during your trip to NZ!
