  • Tour Club Leisure Guide 2021
    Tour Club Leisure Guide 2021 Issue No. 17 | 1 Welcome to Bay Tours & Charters Leisure Guide As I write this, and we head into Christmas and the holiday season it’s hard not to reflect on what has been a difficult year for all of us. Not too many of us will be sorry to see the back of 2020. From a business perspective, there’s never been a more difficult time to be in the tourism industry. The international visitors are no longer here and who knows when they’ll be back. No more cruise ships stopping at Napier until further notice. And whilst some may say “Thank goodness for that. No more traffic nightmares in central Napier, no more hordes of people up Te Mata Peak!” the reality is that thousands of households in Hawke’s Bay rely on the income generated by tourism and a very significant chunk of that has simply disappeared. Napier, in particular, has relied heavily on tourism for decades and whilst the international visitors are no longer currently here, Kiwis have returned to Hawke’s Bay in droves and I suspect this summer, visitations to the region will have more of a family feel. Here at Bay Tours, whilst we certainly haven’t been immune to the huge drop in overseas visitors, we’re thankful for the continued success of the Tour Club. It has been truly heartening to look back at the last 6 months and recall how enthusiastically members responded to our first tentative steps to get out and about again after the lockdown.

The Lord of the Films is a unique guide to those films, and author J.W. Braun tackles every scene in each movie on four different fronts: a closer look at the plot and the action, behind-the-scenes information, a reveal of mistakes that THE UNOFFICIAL GUIDE TO slipped through, and audiences’ reactions. In addition to Jackson’s famous TOLKIEN’S MIDDLE EARTH ON THE BIG SCREEN trilogy, other Tolkien-based films (such as the animated adaptations) are covered. As an added bonus, Braun reveals details about the prequel films currently in production and due out in theaters in 2011 and 2012.
