Hi there,
Just a quick feedback on the Lord of the Rings full day tour that my lady Sheryl and I went on.
Absolutely enjoyable. I have never seen the movies, but I will now. Sheryl has copies of them! We had 10 days in Wellington; fantastic, and thought we would go on a tour for one of those days, which was last Thursday.
We couldn't have had a better tour guide than Sam ( he will remember us, we were the 'oldies').
Sam is very knowledegeable about the Lord of the Rings, and also very much a people person. we all got on so well.
I haven't been on many tours, but I nominate Sam as Tour Guide of the year!
Please pass our message on to Sam, and wish him again all the best in his future.

Best regards,
Adrian and Sheryl .
Melbourne.

Hi guys,

I took the full day Lord of the Rings tour around the Wellington area on the Wednesday just gone, with your driver Ted.

I just wanted to say that I had an amazing time, and that you should be proud to have Ted as a driver for your company. He was incredibly well informed, friendly, and most importantly he made the whole experience a lot more enjoyable than it would have been otherwise. The weather was terrible in the morning, and the van failed to start at one point, but we all had a great day in spite of both of these factors. Some of the areas obviously take a bit of imagination to make the connection to the films, but the idea of using props and scenes to bridge the gap worked really well, and - especially with regards to the props - our driver made an experience that could have been awkward or embarrassing extremely fun.

Keep up the good work!

Hi Ted. Just wanted to say thank you for the EXCELLENT tour on the 1st September. You gave us so much insight into everything and we had an amazing day. I must say, we didn't think we'd have as much fun as we did, but we really enjoyed ourselves, especially glad you had the dvd clips to show us along the way. It has been the highlight of our time in Wellington!! Thanks again!

Stephan, Andrew Australia

Hi Ted!
My family was on your tour on Monday, we were the brothers that did all the photos, from Australia.... Hopefully you remember!
Anyway, we just wanted to say what a FANTASTIC time we had! You did a first class job and we had a lot of fun! All the photo props were brilliant!
Also, there is a comic shop in Cuba Mall, and in the window are two Lord of the Rings bobbleheads. Legolas and Gollum, thought perhaps you might want to get one for your van. I bought the Frodo one that was there.
Mum and Dad say hello and Dad says that he still thinks an IPad would be great for your tour.
Thanks Again!
Stephan and Andrew

Hi Ted,
I'm finally back in HK and wanted to thank you for the great LOTR tour.  It was the highlight of my trip to Wellington (which in fact was my first) and was actually the main reason for my travel to Wellington.
Hope you'll continue to enlighten may LOTR fans.  And drop me a note when the Hobbit tour comes around, hopefully I'll able to see some real sets that time!!
Cheers,
Marcella

 

Samantha

Hi Ted
I did the full day tour with you on 18 June and just wanted to say again how good it was.  Lots of fun and looking back at the pictures was funny-especially the one of us where the hobbits fell down the hill.  
I would recommend your tour to any fan and hopefully my Dad will get on it when he makes his way to New Zealand.
Thanks again
Sam

My friend Alex and I did a tour with you on Thurs, and I just wanted to say thanks, really enjoyed it and have recommended it to others in the hostel.  Just have to get round to watching the films now; then tell my family exactly why they have a photo of me and some green poo.
Best wishes,
Claire

Monika Czech Republic / NZ

Hi Ted, we would like to thank you once more for the wonderful day we spent with you on Ultimate Movie Tour. Very professional and very personal at the same time - it is not a common combination in the tourist industry at all. When I asked my son what was his best Wellington experience, he replied: Lord of the Rings tour first and Te Papa second. Thank you for the great job!
Best regards from Monika and Adam
