    Stephen our tour guide was very good, he went above and beyond what we would have expected from him. His vehicle was very good and comfortable and offered water and snacks when you wanted them. He never rushed you and his tour was excellent and he made sure we all got back to the cruise ship on time.

    Best tour guide ever! Steve is a class act. Such a comfortable bus ride. Great knowledge of New Zealand & Hobbiton. Highly recommend booking him as your guide. Mossop Honey shop was a great stop. Steve goes above and beyond providing delicious gluten free brownies, candy, and drinks. He overheard me mention avocados to my son and made a special stop for us to get some. This tour was full of wonderful stops.
