Samwise Gamgee is the financial manager for Fellowship Tours and Expeditions (aka “Fellowship”), a company that specializes in developing and leading group tours throughout Middle Earth. Fellowship creates tour packages, markets these packages, and leads the various tours to places like Rivendell, the Lonely Mountain, Gondor, and Mirkwood.
