What's included in this tour?

Entry to both Altamira and Hobbitenango parks, private transport between them, and guided access to all attractions including trails, photo spots, and activities. Lunch and meals are not included.

Is this suitable for young children or elderly guests?

Altamira involves hillside trail walking, which may be challenging for very young children or those with mobility issues. Hobbitenango is more accessible but still has uneven terrain. Confirm fitness requirements with the operator before booking.

How much walking is involved?

Altamira features multiple scenic trails across hillsides; expect moderate hiking over 2–3 hours. Hobbitenango involves walking between themed attractions but is less strenuous. Comfortable hiking shoes are essential.

Bring a quality camera/smartphone, plenty of water, sun protection (hat, sunscreen), snacks, and comfortable walking shoes. Layers are recommended due to altitude and variable weather.

How long is the drive from Antigua town?

Both parks are located in the hills surrounding Antigua. Total transport time between town, Altamira, and Hobbitenango is approximately 1–1.5 hours, included in the 7.5-hour tour duration.

Can I do this tour if I'm not a Lord of the Rings fan?

Yes. Altamira is a genuine nature park with hiking and views; Hobbitenango's themed elements are atmospheric fun but not essential to enjoy the landscape and outdoor activities. Both parks appeal to anyone seeking scenic hilltop exploration.

our guide Sven really knew their stuff and the bit at the end nobody expects was the highlight ... Did it on our first morning so it wasnt too busy. Handy if youre short on time, and ran the full 4 hours promised, and spot on for a couples day out, and 6 stops in about 3 hours. Would book again no question, loved it
