The Best way to see NZ in a short time!

I booked my Ticket for the bus in a special offer 6 weeks before departure. I was really excited. The first thing I remember was the friendly, helpfully bus driver. The other guys in the bus are awesome. It's perfect that the bus stops sometimes at the supermarkets. During a ling drive are some little breaks to get fresh air and walk a bit. It's so easy to travel with Kiwi Experience too! You don't have to book a hostel by yourself and if you wanna Do one of the amazing activities you can easily book it over your driver! I loved it!

Good experience

Had a great time on my trip,met some amazing people and didn't have to arrange hardly anything. Did find there were some stops that were not necessary and people were mis informed if they thought they could see places on minimum time,almost everywhere needed 2 nights! I would skip Westport out definitely and there is no need to make us all go into AJ Hackett when we know we aren't doing a jump! Also the Deep South was great but Dunedin needed longer to explore and Invercargill I would have skipped! Downside to the kiwi bus is the clicky groups that form and aren't necessary!

Best of both islands

We did the kiwi experience for 25 days and it is by far the best way to see the country. Best of both islands. You can choose to travel with friends or without. Amazing.

Great Experience

The kiwi experience was one of my most favourite things I've done whilst travelling! I got to see so many beautiful places in New Zealand, with people I had never met, but who are now friends for life!

I still miss it

I did Kiwi Experience about 2 months ago and still miss it!! Wonderful guide/bus drivers, reasonable prices, amazing experience (that I'd otherwise be too scared or too worried about money to do!) and the best people I met on my whole 4 months travelling. How I had such an awesome time even though there were two cyclones during my time there - good timing I know - is unbelievable and all thanks to the seamless experience provided by Kiwi and the help I received from such wonderful staff. Gave the whole trip an incredible, excited and fun atmosphere with people from all over the globe.

Ivan was the best

The trip is so well put together and so professioanlly done. What really made it thought was the driver Ivan, i wasnt suppose to be on mimimum days until queensland, but I did minimum days to stay on his bus. He was quality.

Experience of a lifetime

I had the time of my life on the kiwi bus and all the amazing places I got to see. I got some fantastic opportunities along the way . I met some lovely people on the buses which made travelling by myself a lot easier . It's really not an expensive way of seeing the whole country . I would hop back on the kiwi bus in the morning and hopefully I might do it all again some time soon . Thank you

Great experience

I wanted to travel by myself and this was the perfect opportunity to do so. The excursions were great and the bus tour allowed me to see the highlights. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to meet new people
