This year my Wife and me realised our once in a lifetime journey to NZ. One of the most impressing locations was the filmset of Hobbiton. We enjoyed the atmosphere of Frodo and his Friends. Our GO Rentals car made it possible to reach every point of interest on the whole island. An unforgettable experience. Thanks to whole NZ.
