The Safari of the Scenes full-day tour covers much ground to deliver the signature scenes shot around the Queenstown region.
Commencing at 8am, the tour first travels west to Glenorchy and Paradise before returning to Queenstown for lunch, followed by Arrowtown and Gibbston Valley before finishing in Skippers Canyon.
The morning tour travels along the Wakatipu Lake edge to the small hamlet of Glenorchy.
This portion is very scenic with many photo stops along the way and in the Paradise region of Mount Aspiring National Park, short walks on flat forest track are easy and the road is a mixture of seal and gravel.
The afternoon section is more rugged with short periods of rough ground and river crossings.
This tour visits the Gibbston Valley area, Arrowtown and the Skippers Canyon Road which is high and windy but with very dramatic scenery .
Short walks are on well-managed surfaces and the opportunity to pan for elven gold is beside the river on uneven ground.
Content of the tours includes the settings for The Ford of Bruinen, Gladden Fields, The Pillars of the Kings, the exodus from Edoras, Warg Battle, Misty Mountains, Ithilien Camp, Oliphants, Caradhras, Lothlorien, Fangorn, Gap of Rohan, Isengard, Dunharrow and many backgrounds to the scenes.
