Your Experience

Welcome to the Shire

Once you reach the set, your guide will escort you on a shared walking tour around the movie set. See the beautiful gardens, and the 44 Hobbit holes lining the hillside before arriving at Bagshot Row to peek inside the humble home of a Hobbit. As you tour the set, listen to your guide tell you interesting details about how the set was made and show you famous locations used in the movies.
