James B. from the UK 💪 - We were given the pleasure of having James B. from the UK, as our host for our private tour. He was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer ALL of our questions (Including, but not limited to animal/bird species, landscaping, connection to the movies, even the grass used in different areas of Hobbiton!!). He was unbelievably awesome and made our experience that much better. If you ever come to visit, ask for James!!

Transport with an expert! - Kris was an absolute delight! He has so much knowledge to share and was fun to converse with. He took care of all the details, so we could sit back and enjoy ourselves. I would highly recommend him.

One of the Best in Private tours. - One of the best private tours that we have taken, from the time that we booked our tour, we were kept informed of the bookings as it was reserved and then paid for on our behalf by our tour guide Krishna with helpful tips of our visit to not only to the Hobbitton movie set and the Glowworm caves but of other attractions around New Zealand that we learned from Kris, a very helpful and kind kiwi, I would highly recommend his services and would be sure to use his services in the future

The Secret To A Smooth Sight-Seeing Day! - On our first trip ever to New Zealand, it was critically important to us that we had a chance to see some of the key unique attractions and understand better the local life, wildlife, and history.
As part of that, we booked a bigger “private” tour on a bus. But at the last minute, we decided we’d be much better off with a more intimate and comfortable experience. Alas I was reluctant because of the significant additional cost.
But my wife pushed me to upgrade us, and I’m so glad she did because, thankfully, we were swept away on an amazing and amazingly comfortable day!
Kris was a wonderful steward of all of the vehicle, tour destinations, and the country. Not only did he provide some wonderful conversation and commentary on all aspects of the land and the landmarks, he also went above and beyond to rearrange parts of the day on the fly to ensure we had VIP access and the best part of the experience.
If you’re looking for the best way to tour around Auckland and see the sites with the secret shortcuts and stories in tow, connect with Kris and his team!

Travelling with the “Black Car Transfers &Tours Auckland” - We had a wonderful trip traveling to the Hobbiton Movie Set and Waitimo Glowworm Cave with the “Black Car Transfers & Tours Auckland”. The driver Mr. Christ was a very friendly and knowledgable person to introduce us the interesting places to visit and the restaurants to go for dinner in Auckland. He was a very good driver with an experience in driving on the road in order to avoid the traffic condition that could have occurred because of the rugby match. And we finally arrived safely in the Queen-street of Auckland at the end of the trip. And we are grateful for the good service provided by the “Black Car Transfers & Tour Auckland.
