Stopp: 4 timmar - inträde ingår ej

In 1998, Peter Jackson spotted the Alexander Farm just outside the town of Matamata during an aerial search for film locations for The Lord of the Rings. Saying the area was "like a slice of ancient England", the pastoral farmland was transformed into the Shire, and appeared in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy as well as the Hobbit. Today, a guided tour of the set transports visitors to the Shire and the magic of Middle Earth. While walking past (and into) you’ll see Hobbit Holes™ you’ll learn about how the movie magic was made - like making the hobbit holes in different sizes depending on the perspective needed. After seeing the most famous locations, you’ll end your tour at the Green Dragon™ Inn and an exclusive Hobbit™ Southfarthing™ beverage. On Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, you can also sign up for an evening banquet tour to see Hobbiton at sunset, before feasting on traditional Hobbit fayre. Bookings must be made well in advance at www.hobbitontours.com

Great transfer option.

I used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.

It was a fantastic trip.

We were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, we’d especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.

Vanliga frågor

Om du har några frågor, här är svaren.

Day trips offer travelers private round-trip transportation to popular sightseeing locations. One of our professional drivers will pick you up in a luxurious, climate-controlled car, take you to the site of interest, and wait for you while you explore before driving you back to your hotel.

Yes! You’re free to choose the pickup and drop-off times that work best for you. However, the time spent at the destination is fixed and cannot be changed.

Each sightseeing stop has a recommended duration that includes plenty of time to explore. However, it is possible to customize the time spent at each sightseeing stop at a later stage in the booking process to best fit your unique schedule.

Your Daytrip driver will wait for you nearby for the duration of your exploration, meaning you’ll never have to wait for your return trip transportation to arrive. Your comfort and convenience are our top priorities, and we aim to close out your day trip with a return on your schedule.

The price of a day trip does not include any entrance tickets, guided tours, or meals you may partake in at your destination. The price covers round-trip transportation in a luxury vehicle with a professional driver who can provide local insights en route.

Day trip bookings can be canceled up to 24 hours before your trip for a full refund, no strings attached. While the destination and stops are predetermined, it is possible to change your pick-up point, whether it is at your hotel or some other location within the city.
