Loved it!

I travellede with kiwi ex for a bit over a month with two friends and it was fantastic. I meet some awesome people and had the time of my life. The buss drivers have a great sense of humor and are very helpful. The will tell you the does and don't everywhere, and where you as a backpacker on a budget can save some money but stil have an awesome time. They are also very good at telling stories from the Maori culture and pointing out places which have importance to them and tell why. If I could I would do it all again

We enjoyed every single minute!

Can't believe our journey through NZ has come to an end. From climbing mountains to hiking the most beautiful trails, surfing, bungee jumping, skydiving, eating fergburgers, mountainbiking, hostel hopping and each bus journey leading us to an even more amazing place than the last. Big thank you to all the people of kiwi, especially the bus drivers who made this trip even more worthwile. We loved Simon, we couldn't imagine a better driver, he made us laugh all the time!

Took us where we wanted

Me and my boyfriend were on the Kiwi Ex for 2 months and enjoyed most places. But On the south island we wished we had a car because there are far to many cool places you don't get to see and at one point it gets annoying that you always have to wait on the others for all the coffee breaks and toilet breaks. We always booked our own accomodation and activities because there is always a cheaper alternative. But the bus is a good way of transportation and the driver information was always nice, to get some facts about the places

Cuddles

My friends and I enjoyed kiwi experience a huge amount, and this was partly due to the fact that our driver - Dave , or cuddles - was an informative, hilarious and caring guide that helped make the trip run smoothly !

Time of my life!

I bought the kitchen sink pass and started my trip on the 12th of March. The first day of my trip I was swimming with dolphins in Pahia! I met some amazing friends within hours and we traveled the whole way together. The buses are always comfy and clean. The bus drivers know everything you could possibly need to know and they stop off at some great walks and views along the drive! Kiwi experience was the trip of a life time!
