Guided tours provide fascinating behind-the-scenes stories about how the set was built and used during filming. The experience ends with a complimentary drink at the Green Dragon Inn, making it a truly memorable and immersive visit.

Blue Spring
Blue Springs (Te Waihou Springs) is one of New Zealand’s most stunning natural attractions, located near Putāruru in the Waikato region. It is famous for its incredibly clear, pure water, which supplies around 70% of New Zealand’s bottled water.
The water flows from underground aquifers and takes decades to filter naturally, resulting in its striking turquoise-blue color and exceptional clarity. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful walk along the Te Waihou Walkway, surrounded by native bush, gentle streams, and scenic wooden bridges.
The area offers a calm and refreshing experience, perfect for nature lovers, photographers, and those looking to escape into a quiet, pristine environment.
