Really enjoyed our fun and nerdy full day Lord of the Rings tour from Wellington. It was great to spend time with other fans and get photos at movie sites. Lunch at the Chocolate Fish was delicious. Learned a lot at Weta Studios. Our guide, Steve was warm and friendly - you could tell he was having fun too! Thank you for a great day.
We took the tour of the local Lord of the Rings filming locations, with a stop-off at Weta Workshop at mid-day. Kelvin did an absolutely magnificent job of showing us the sights and telling us about the background of each location. The whole experience was flawless from start to finish. A special shout-out to John Barry, who I believe owns Capital, for his help when we realized we had no idea who our tour operator was! I found him after a few phone calls to the wrong folks, and he was most gracious and reassuring when I explained our predicament.
We had a wonderful time on the Lord of the Rings tour with Kelvie! He was on time, great company, and incredibly knowledgeable about each area we visited. The tour was well organized, and we loved seeing the different filming locations — a must-do for any LOTR fan!
Steve, our driver, was great company and knowledgeable about the Wairarapa and the areas we were travelling through. The weather was cold and wet and sadly for us we missed some of the views but Steve's driving was excellent, despite the poor conditions. The wineries that were chosen for us were excellent as was the most amazing lunch platter at Poppies. If you are travelling to Wellington and have a day spare I could not think of a better way to spend it. I will be booking again on my next visit to Wellington.
When they say "Personalised," they mean it! We had an absolutely amazing day with Capital Personalised Tours! We chose "Private Martinborough Wine Full Day Tour From Wellington" because our family loves wine, but also because, although we love the Lord of the Rings, my mother has some mobility challenges that can make set tours difficult. However, after our driver, Andrew, met us at the cruise port and learned of our love of all things Tolkien, in addition to the wonderful wine tastings and lunch, he surprised us by taking us to some of the different movie set sights that mom could navigate. He stopped by the Helm's Deep quarry, the Isengard gardens, and we even walked through "Rivendell!" Lunch at Poppies was absolutely AMAZING and we had a wonderful time tasting and exploring the wines of New Zealand. (I'm now a fan of Chardonnay, which I never thought possible.) I just want to say that I can't thank Andrew and John enough for the wonderful experience they provided! We got to see and do things that simply wouldn't be possible with any other tour!
Had an amazing full day LOTR tour with John. Very knowledgeable about the franchise, filming production timeline, locations and also Peter Jackson’s other ventures. John also had a great depth in the history of Wellington and its locations, as well as being a ripper bloke! Thanks John!
We did a full-day food and booze tour with Kelvin, who was such a great guide! He personalized the tour for us in so many ways and we had such a fun time. I thought the 7-hour duration would feel long but the day flew by. This tour and our time with Kelvin was definitely one of the most memorable parts of our two-week vacation.
Communication with John right from the start was excellent. Easy to book on the website to. My girlfriends and I had a wonderful time, we all really enjoyed the day. Nice and relaxing being chauffeured around the Wellington Wine Region. Definitely recommend the trip its well worth it.
From Rivendell, across the Rimutakas and into Wairarapa wine country John was the best guide! Capital Personalised Tours is a door-to-door all inclusive service that was comfortable, professional and enjoyable. Highly recommended. They go other places to!
