Our Customer Reviews

I’m super happy i went with kiwi experience! Meet a lot of new friends and just really enjoyed everything!

Myself and my finance really enjoyed the kiwi experience, Dylan and Lisa were especially great and really informative. Gina B was quite rude throughout our journeys with her. Despite this we had a great time and the buses are as comfortable as you can get on a bus! Thank you!

Great way to get around on nz and meet nice people. Really nice drivers, who help you if you need help with something.

Loved the trip and had a blast meeting all the people on it! I'd say that I loved Queenstown the best as it was such a beautiful city with so many things to do. Wanaka was also wonderful and like Queenstown but less busy which was nice.

What an amazing time! We did the Northern round up with the bay of islands add on and thoroughly enjoyed every day. We only had 3 weeks so we didn’t feel we had enough time to see both islands and didn’t want to rush. The drivers we had were great and there were so many fun activities to do, there was never a dull moment!

I was travelling alone and the bus was the best way to meet new people and make new friends! I had so much fun! The drivers were really good, a bit weird but I think you have to be weird to make this job! Thanks Cuddles and NancyBoy!

Buses clean, pretty comfortable and drivers friendly and helpful. Having the activities and accommodation sorted makes for very lazy travel.

Great experience, fun and well thought out route. Some few bumps along the way

I started my tour in Queenstown and have been traveling northbound. Don't get me wrong New Zealand is a beautiful country and the Kiwi busses are comfy and the drivers are great, but all you're paying for is basically a bus service. Granted they help you book accommodations/activities, but this is a lazy way to travel. If you want to stay longer (and you should! You need way more time than the minimum time prescribed- the '21+ day trip', means you need way more or you'll be stuck on a bus everyday!) you need to book your own accommodations anyways. It's a lot of money for what it is. But that's not my grievance with kiwi experience. Forget getting any help from the office! They're all new, don't know anything about the trip, make loads of mistakes and are infuriating on the phone! I'm pretty easy going, but every time I get off the phone with them I am angry and frustrated. They need people who know the trip to be able to help with bookings ! ALSO!!! YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FERRY (POTENTIALLY BOTH WAYS)!

Class bus drivers, unbelievable scenery, made great friends and had some seriously memorable times! Not forgetting the 600+ pictures I took!
