Brilliant experience, our tour guide was very knowledgeable as he works hands on for the company, telling us great little stories.
Well worth a visit if you like films.

Good tour around the Weta Workshop.
We got to see how they do stuff and prepare for movies. The people there are so talented. Great tour.

I am a huge Lord of the Rings fan so I booked the tour and we were with such incredible people and we saw so many things, yes 10/10!!

No photos are allowed inside this Aladdin's Cave of movie props.
You get to hold props from loads of movies and get to learn loads about how they are made and how they are used on set.

Very interesting.
Explains how films and accessories are made. Not only for Lord of the Rings fans. Worth its price.

As a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings, I had to go there.....
A bit disappointed, as all they do is try to take all your money, very expensive, but still worthy to pay for the guided tour.
-
Great, loved seeing all of my favourite props and replicas and the free video is a must.
Don't expect to see lots of prop making in action on the weekends if you do the tour.
-
Was really cool seeing how the props for films were made.
The tour guide was full of information and showed a mix of films, not just Lord of the Rings which was refreshing.

45 minute tour of the Weta Workshop where Lord of the Rings and many other film props and costumes are designed and made.
Interesting but only okay value for $25.

Little, little museum and King Kong mask were really good, but you have to pay for the tour.

This is the company who did the weapons, clothes, props to Lord of the Rings.
They have also done props for many other movies as well. Really interesting tour with a lot of information about how to make props and such.
-
We were on the standard tour and we really enjoyed it.
But we are fans of the Lord of the Rings and many more movies that Weta Workshop helped to do, so I cannot be negative.
-
Interesting and cool movie equipment.
OK price, exhibition area was quite small, the guide seemed a little bored.
-
Little, little museum and King Kong mask were really good, but you have to pay for the tour.
-
Interesting to see how they produce all the requisites for different movies.
Although the tour was a little bit short.
