Land of Lord of the Rings — Immerse yourself in the unspoiled beauty of New Zealand’s breathtaking high country, land of Lord of the Rings. With sparkling clear lakes, glistening blue rivers, rugged mountain ranges and fresh, crisp mountain air, the scenery is simply stunning. Journey over the Canterbury Plains to the foothills of the Southern Alps, where you will enjoy a stop for refreshments before continuing to one of the most recognizable locations from the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy. At Mt. Potts Station, arrive at Mt. Sunday—a sheer sided hill in the Rangitata River Valley and the film set for Edoras. Here, you will experience firsthand why this remote and beautiful location was chosen for filming one of the most epic fantasy adventure movies of the past two decades. Explore this magical landscape and have your photo taken with Lord of the Rings replica swords before lunching at Mt. Somers Village on the journey back to port.
