Ian’s Quirky Farm Tours includes possibly one of the most famous film locations in New Zealand, ‘Laketown’, which was featured in The Hobbit. Ian’s tours also include the history of his farm nested on the shores of Lake Pukaki, shadowed by Aoraki/Mount Cook next to the Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail.
You may remember Ian as “a bit of a dag” from an episode on TV show Country Calendar. With his fabulous outfits, his shoe Ferris wheel, and a strange array of vehicles, there is something for everyone!
Turn off State Highway 8 onto Hayman Road by Lake Pukaki. Continue along and eventually turn into the driveway marked with signage for Tasman Downs.
