    One of the coolest things to be put on this planet. Being able to have a slice of middle-earth in real life is incredible!
  • @user-lp3ew1xb5u
    Blue skies, green flora, high fluffy white clouds - you went on the right day!
  • @Mets4Barth68
    Good on you guys to show the grounds crew in action. You could argue it breaks immersion, but those are the people who keep Hobbiton looking lush and alive. They deserve the representation.

    Dude is living his best life right now. Honestly, everytime I watch a video about Hobbiton, my stress level just washes away. This is a sign that I NEEEED to go visit one day (and never to return perhaps)
  • @MachoChannel213
    Omg me and my wife CACKLED when you reenacted Bilbo’s “I’m going on an adventure!” 😂😂😂 we love it.
  • @DelayedJet
    Being a tour guide here would be, like, literally the best job in the world.
  • @missyme2673
    So privileged that we have a small piece of middle earth to visit for generations to come! What a remarkable movie set, the attention to detail is mind-blowing! ❤
  • @Debba521
    So envious, as I'll likely never get there. But I'm just so glad it exists. I'm nearly 65 yrs. old and I've loved Tolkien's stories since I was 12. Just to see this place on film or in videos is awesome!
  • @NickRyhajlo
    I was lucky enough to go there this last year, and it was incredible. Not only is the hobbiton set fantastic, but the whole area for miles around truly feels like the shire. It's nothing but rolling green hills and sheep farms for miles around. Truly a magical place.
  • Thank you so much for this film; for those of us who may never get the chance to visit but are true fans. 🙏
  • @roverboy006
    Much appreciation to Hobbiton Movie Set and Red Carpet Tours for letting you film and post this to everyone. Marvelous!

    I live in Hamilton, just up the road, and had a couple of German backpackers staying with us one time, and they were desperate to go to Hobbiton, so we took them along. Went to the Green Dragon, and Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan were serving drinks!
  • @Auratus2196
    Absolutely stunned by the level of detail that has gone into the set. It's wonderful that the keepers have gotten to continue working on it over the decades to flesh out more and more of the parts we don't ever see on screen and turn it into an actual museum of a fictional world. If we could only have more of theses kinds of living art projects to experience. Thanks for sharing this with us!
  • @phiology1983
    So jealous! My dream vacation. So glad they kept the set from the movie and made into something that everyone can enjoy especially LOTR fans
  • @AlexisLK
    I'm sad that Tolkien couldn't see this incredible permanent set during his life. Would have been amazing to see his reaction
  • @scooterdtx
    I'd have to spend many days visiting the Hobbiton set. So many details to enjoy and different plants to appreciate! Thank you for a video that I'll watch repeatedly.:face-fuchsia-flower-shape:

    The pub is two minutes from the Gamgees', but it's fifteen minutes back home. The difference is staggering.
