unexpectedly fun!

Bought this package along with my flights to NZ with very little understanding of how the experience worked, but with the understanding it was going to take us where we wanted to get to (via a scenic route). It went way beyond my limited perception of what was to occur on the trip. The places your stop are incredible, the activities you are offered to do are exciting and there is something for a whole range of people. I stopped thinking about where I was going to end up and was looking forward to every stop. The longer you are on the coach, the more you get to know others on the coach and friendships are easy to make. That being said you can choose your level of participation in everything that is carried out, there is no obligation for anyone to join in with something they are not interested in. Overall I would definitely recommend this experience as a whistle-stop tour of New Zealand, as well as alot of fun.

The best way to see New Zealand!

The Kiwi Experience is the best way to see New Zealand. The drives are so beautiful and scenic, ALL off the drivers are fun and knowledgable and they make everything so easy for you. All your activities and accommodation are sorted out for you, you just need to sign your name and let them do the rest. I would highly recommended the Kiwi Experience to anyone.

Fun Time

I decided to buy the "fush n chups" pass to travel the South Island after traveling the North Island on my own. Definetly the right decision! It was very nice to have things like accommodation sorted out and being able to fully enjoy your time in New Zealand. The good thing about traveling with a bus full of people is that you actually see them again because you all travel together as opposed to traveling alone and knowing that you won't see people you meet in hostels ever again. The buses were really nice as well, even though in my opinion there could have been more free wifi ;b the bus drivers were really compentent and could help (almost) always. Just some of there comments were a bit unnecessary and maybe a bit inappropriate (you don't tell a bus full of people that in your opinion old people should be shot or that the single girls could stop by your room whenever the felt like it... but maybe that's just me). Overall I had a great time with kiwi experience and I don't regret buying the ticket.

What a trip

I have booked the tour quite some months before I started this October. From the first day on I felt welcomed to the bus, both of the drivers where absolutely friendly and funny. Due to my working schedule I just had three weeks to spend on both islands, but they were the best I had so far. The locations are well chosen, the activities and Kiwi Ex Prices are great and the whole team made this trip so relaxed and awesome. Thank you for this experience and the friends I've made.

Great way to see all of New Zealand!

The Kiwi Experience is a great way to see New Zealand and allows you to see all that the country has to offer. The bus is very comfortable and booking accommodation and activities is super easy! I only had 4 weeks to spare in New Zealand, but the Kiwi bus covers so much that you can cover this extraordinary country with ease. What's more? The Kiwi bus is a great way to meet people, making memories that last for a lifetime :)

Amazing tour program!!

I had the best time traveling with the KiwiExperience. It covers all the major attractions both islands have to offer while giving you a chance to connect with other travelers.

THE BEST TIME EVER

I had just graduated uni and was keen to do some travelling. I had limited time - only 7 weeks as I needed to return home before i started my ski season in the winter. As I was travelling alone, the Kiwi Experience was the perfect option for me as I could explore New Zealand at my own pace with the freedom of hopping off in my favourite places. I have made absolute friends for life on the Kiwi bus, it has such a friendly atmosphere and I wish i could do it all over again!! Would without a doubt recommend this to anyone who is keen to travel new Zealand. Especially first time solo travellers as the drivers are so friendly and happy to help you in any way they can. 10/10 Kiwi, great job! NZ i'll be back!
