Our Customer Reviews

I didn't know what to really expect when I booked this tour and I have been very surprized how amazing it was with a very good organisation! Well done!

Loved the experience! Was so social and fun! Had the best group for the whole trip and loved the activities on offer. All the drivers were extremely friendly as well.

The most amazing 6 weeks of my life with the most friendly and helpful drivers. Best way to meet people especially if a solo traveller!

I have absolutely loved my experience on Kiwi! I had brilliant drivers in Jarred, Lisa, Q and Kathy! It’s so good to be able to hop on the busses trouble free and know there’s accommodation and activities planned and waiting for you at good prices. I would recommend this to a friend just would advise to make sure you have a rough plan of where it’s best to stay longest! :D

Wow. Just wow! Such a good time had on the kiwi experience!!

I did not plan to do the Kiwi Experience originally, as I had nobody to travel with... but I am so glad I did! From the second you are on the bus you make friends, and the drivers ensure this even more so. It is an amazing and easy way to travel New Zealand, and I would recommend to anyone. The only issue is with rescheduling buses - it is advertised as a 'hop on, hop off' service, when in fact it is not this straight forward. Luckily, I had friends who had recently done the trip in my time frame, so had advised me where to spend extra days - so I prebooked all my buses. However, a lot of people I met end up on standby in a lot of places. This was my only issue. Everything else was seamless, and I loved it.

Kia Ora! Just finished my Kiwi Ex tour and it was simply awesome. I had the best time! Thanks to our driver Kathy, who always organized activities and accomodation for us and told us about the history of New Zealand. I got exactly what I wanted: see a lot of the country, get some guidence, meet people and have heaps of fun! My favorite activity was the Maori Village and I just recommend doing the overnight stay - it is great and you really bond with the people from your bus. Thanks Kiwi Ex for a truly great experience!

Bought this a couple months back and so glad I did !!!

Traveling by myself I bought my pass hoping to just make traveling easier but it’s so much more than that. I met loads of awesome people and the advice and reserved accommodation were Also super handy. Thankyou kiwi for a great time I just wish I could always travel like this!

For people that travel alone kiwi experience is the best way to travel with, cause you'll find new friends immediately. The drivers were awesome and gave many insights about New Zealand life and locations. Kiwi experience makes it easy to plan you trip and organize activities. I would highly recommend it if you are short on time, but if you have more than a month for travelling New Zealand I would rather drive by another bus or by car, because you have to do every stop that's on the itinerary of your chosen pass, if you want or if you don't want. If you are aware of that Kiwi is a cool way to travel with.
