Both “The Lord of the Rings”- and “The Hobbit” trilogies have been filmed entirely in New Zealand. “Hobbiton” is a movie set with guided walking tours. It was amazing to see the original film sets used in the film and to get some background information about the tricks used in the film.
The tour ended with a nice brew in “The Green Dragon” inn.
Not surprisingly, we had to watch “The Hobbit” that evening. It was also the last day with our campervan, which we returned in Auckland, before doing a quick stroll through the city and watching the end of the Superbowl LIII (the New England Patriots won).
