As a movie fan, this was a fun and interesting experience. The highlight was watching a real life legend in the business crafting and actual sword. Lots of very cool props on display from various films.

Really very interesting tour. You get to see many props and costumes and a chance to see someone working in the background. We saw someone making a sword. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about Weta as he has worked in several departments for many years and was also an extra in the Lord of the rings films.

Wētā absolutely blew our mind, our guide was Sam (kids thought this was amazing considering they’d just finished watching LOTR movies). From start to finish we were all captivated from this experience, even Miss 4 loved it. The detail, skill, stories, movie connections, workshop watching right in front of our eyes. Great experience. Highly recommend.

Went not really knowing what to expect, was very pleased with very informative guide. Lots of original props, really good explanation of the mask making process, can't take a lot of photos but one are you can handle some of the props Liked how you wernt pressured into buying photos

As a non fan of the LOTR movies I wasn’t planning to go but when I found out this company has worked in a lot more films I was more keen. Our tour guide Taylor was amazing, charismatic, friendly and no matter what question we threw at him he had an answer. It was fun seeing all the props up close and finding out how much work they put into it. There’s heaps of merch you can buy although it is mostly LOTR themed. Definitely book the tour spots in advance.

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…

So much to see and take in. Angie our tour guide was great and made the tour one to remember. Absolutely great peak behind the camera and to see all the props and costumes.

Incredible experience, and the staff are all so full of life and brilliance! We walked out feeling inspired to continue our personal creative pursuits. Every time I watch a film now I have a new found respect for the time and work that goes into Weta creations. You won't believe some of the stories you'll learn! Also visited a local bakery before our tour for the yummiest pies and hot chocolate.
