Lord of the Rings - Fan-Journey to New Zealand (HQ)

A Journey to the World Premier of The Return of the King of the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy in Wellington (New Zealand), home of Middle-earth. A once in a lifetime experience. New Zealand at its best.

The top highlight of all the travel-highlights was the World Premiere of The Return of the King movie. All the stars of Lord of the Rings at the red carpet, the Premiere Symphonie from Howard Shore, the Fan Party with Middle-earth-Fans from all over the World - and also some actors among us - in the Skyline Restaurant, top of Wellington. We had a lot of fun. We also visited other LotR-related places like Weta studios in the Wellington suburb of Miramar, the exposition in the airport, or the autograph session of Howard Shore in the Dymocks bookshop which had a great LotR-collection with LotR-stamps, LotR-coins, DVD's, Weta-Sideshow collectibles and of course books of J.R.R. Tolkien and books about the Films from Peter Jackson.

And last but not least we vistited a lot of Set-Locations of the films like Emyn Muil, Rivendell, Hobbiton, Rohan, Misty Mountains or Edoras and other wonderful places and NZ like Milford Sound or Rotorua, who are so beautiful in nature, scenery and culture and a must do for Kiwi travellers. There are so many LotR-related places to discover in NZ. Some locations are far away from the main tourist.attractions. LotR-Fans could see a little bit of the unknown New Zealand. The Set-locations are on both Islands, North Island and South Island. Like for director Peter Jackson the helicopter-only locations has been the favorite locations for a lot of us. 100% Middle-earth and Tolkien-Fandom in 100% Pure New Zealand.

In this video you can see pictures from Liv Tyler, Viggo Mortensen, Elijah Wood, Barrie Osborne, Andy Serkis, Sean Astin, Sir Ian McKellen, John Noble, Lawrence Makoare, Bruce Hopkins and Richard Taylor. Also Hobbits and Haradrim from the films in original Middle-earth-wardrobe and a lot of Fans in costumes are seen.

Ich möchte auf jeden Fall dort hin!

Besonders nach Central Otago...

Kann mir jemand erfahrungsberichte über "der herr der reisen.de" geben?

Grüße

@FrischluftMetaler: Über diesen Reiseveranstalter weiß ich nichts. Sind wohl ausgearbeitete Individualreisen. Das kriegt man aber auch selber hin, das internet machts möglich. Sehr gute Gruppenreisen (englischsprachig) bietet Red Carpet Tours an.

cool,war bestimmt eine super erfahrung,die ich auch mal machen möchte!nur zur premiere kann ich leider nicht mehr^^

[HarryHoCom]

Es gibt ja in nicht allzu ferner Zukunft die Premieren der beiden Filme "The Hobbit". Weltpremieren, Europapremieren, Nationale Premieren etc. Wer weiß, vielleicht findet sich da eine Möglichkeit für dich.

I dont know really, but I think there is no special museum. There has been an LotR-Exposition in Wellingtons Te Papa Museum and then touring around the world. I dont know whats about this Exposition now.
