It was a total Geek trip, but I loved it.
Few more pics from the tour today:

You couldn't access it from where we went, but the entrancer where they shot Helm's Deep is just to the left of the centre of the image.
Some movie replicas.
Left to right: Aragorns first sword, The Sword of Gondor, Gimli's Axe, Theodan's Sword.
Lol, me holding Gimli's Axe (pretty heavy, can't believe he had to use that for all those fight scenes)... The hill you see is the capital city of the Rohan people in the movie; Edoras.
Another lolwot picture of me holding the flag of Rohan (actual flag used in the movie... well, the second one... the first one got blown away in the movie.. which we were told was actually an accident). Behind me is where Aragorn, Legolas and Gandalf rock up to Edoras.
f**king awesome value full-day tour for only $200 NZ.
