One of my best touristic travels. We were alone with the guide. A lot of information was shared during our visit. You must go there if you like The Hobbit movies.
Highly recommend this amazing tour!! The filming location was breathtaking, photos with the props make you look cool as, and the highlight is Suzie's great banter and behind the scenes knowledge. Plus you surprising learn lots of farm life and geology : 100% worth it.
Beautiful spot! Easy to see why it was chosen, already a movie set! Suzie is a great hostess, well worthwhile!
Less known filming location of The Hobbit location, which makes the tour really a private and personalised experience. Suzie did an excellent job of explaining the making of various scenes and showing us around the amazing farm. Not cheap, but considering the family efforts to make the tour work, really worth the visit.
We visited Hairy Feet on 21 X 2019 so it took us exactly one year to write this review; The place is absolutely wonderful, Suzie was amazing tour guide and encouraged us to take pictures which was nice for shy people like us; We enjoyed ourselves more than in Hobbiton, which was too crowded for our taste.
I was there twice. These guys do an amazing job. The landscape of Denize Bluffs is breathtaking!
