Here are a couple links to a variety of related tourist information.

1.  Adventure Safari: Movie tours in Wellington.  A favorite because of the variety, the secrets, the props for photos and the friendliness of our guide, Ted.

2.  Edoras:  As you approach "Edoras" from afar, everyone instantly will recognize it from the movie.  This is in remote area on a seldom traveled dirt road.

 3. Hobbiton: Informative and lovely rolling hills.  Great photo's and a fun tour guide.  Nice "inside" information about what into the making of the films.  The party tree does exsist!
