Location
For Lord of the Rings fans this is THE tour! Nomad Safaris will take you on a half day trip deep into LOTR filming territory on an off-roading scenic 4WD adventure like no other. Bring the films to life with our authentic replica props, dress up and take photos, or simply soak up the scenery! The Glenorchy Safari of the Scenes tour explores some of the most famous filming locations used to depict J.R.R Tolkien’s Middle Earth. These stunning locations include the area containing the fortress of Isengard, the Forest of Lothlorien, along with other film locations for movies such as X-Men Origins – “Wolverine” and “Prince Caspian” from The Chronicles of Narnia.
Your knowledgeable guide will entertain you along the way with fascinating insights onto the area’s unique history and of course fill you in on all the juicy details of each filming location! Travelling through this landscape it is easy to see why location scouts chose to film here utilising the stunning natural beauty of New Zealand’s Central Otago region. On this scenic tour you will see incredible views of Queenstown’s Mt Earnslaw and Lake Wakatipu, we will stop at various vantage points providing the perfect opportunity for taking dramatic photos of the most breathtaking landscapes that you have ever encountered.
