Very interesting tour where you see and hear background about how cgi, costumes and props are created. A lot of great stuff to see, and very hands on if that’s what you’re interested in. The shop is also amazing, difficult to not buy anything especially now that Warhammer 40k is starting to appear…
If pure a fan of LOTR or movie production this is definitely worth visiting. Really cool props that were used in the movie and a lot of things at the gift shop for souvenirs
Amazing displays and very informative. Great insight into the meticulous amount of work that goes into making each character and set. Our guide Kiki was lovely, full of information and great personality. Highly recommend.
I've been here a few years ago and I went back today and it's even more fun than it used to be! Not only do you get to see the amazing props and hear about the things people do here, you get to try for yourself, you get to touch a lot of stuff and you end up with a fun photo! Loved it, and our guide Tessa was great!
The tour was way more then I expected! Our tour guide (unfortunately forgot his name...) was amazing with so much to tell, friendly and stories for days about the place and the people that work there. Highly recommend going and you don't have to be a movie buff to enjoy and appreciate the art and craftsmanship that these people make here they! Side note: safest to repurchase tickets, parking is a little hard to find at times and the gift shop is generally cheaper then buying online
