Tino Pai Tours Paraparaumu Overnight Experiences

As we depart Mt Maunganui , we cross over the harbour looking back to take in the great views of Mauao (Mt Maunganui). We then make our way over the Kaimai Ranges into the Mighty Waikato district, known for its dairy farming area of New Zealand.
After an hour of driving, we soon arrive at Hobbiton; the movie set location for Lord of The Rings and associated films where you will enjoy an informative 2 1/2 hour tour around the movie set.
You will be taken behind the scenes of such a successful movie, walk through a fully furnished hobbit hole, stand under the party tree, walk past the numerous holes within the Shire, and imagine yourself among the characters. At the conclusion of your journey you get a special treat in the Green Dragon Inn where you will receive a local shire ale, cider or ginger beer.
On our return journey to the port we will call in at McLaren Falls & Park, which abounds with a diverse range of tree species & bird-life. You now have the opportunity to walk in the native bush to a beautiful waterfall.
​

Now it’s homeward we travel into Tauranga City, before we head back along the inner harbor past the local fishing boats, over the Harbor bridge along the port back to your ship with plenty of time to spare to enjoy the beach before sailing time.
