Amazing Experience
I thoroughly enjoyed my time and met some truly amazing people. Some of which i am glad to call my friends and hope to visit in their own countries at some point. The knowledge and understanding form the drivers that i had was second to none. My favorite driver mainly because i spent most of my time with was Wazza. He was outstanding and i am gutted that he has decide to stop. I wish him all the best.

The Best of NZ!!
I travelled on the Kiwi bus in April this year on the Zephyr pass & I cannot recommend it enough!! The hostels are great, the activities are amazing & the people you meet make the experience incredible! NZ is an amazing country and Kiwi Experience is a fabulous way to see it... choose Kiwi and you'll have no regrets!

Incredible Trip
This honestly changed my life.. This was my first time out of the country, all the way from California. I was nervous at first (partly because I was alone) and didn't really know what it was going to be like, but I've made so many life long friends along the way.. I've never met so many awesome people at once. This is the easiest way you could travel, I feel like. Best purchase I've made. New Zealand was incredible, thanks to the Kiwi bus :) I already want to go back!

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

unforgettable memories
I had a great time in new Zealand with kiwi experience! Drivers are friendly and patiently to help me making plans. And show me the easiest way to go and do all the activities that I wanted to do. Horse riding, skydiving, tongariro crossing, Nevis swing ,kayaking and more, I got all the best experience with green bus!! Can't wait to be with you guys again soon.

travelling to the people - kiwi experience
when people ask me why i bought kiwi experience busticket, i simply answer like this; sometimes you travel to a place to see beautiful places and to explore new cultures, but for me travelling is about the people. Without The people , without your new friends , you don't feel the true embracement a beautiful place can give you. Every journey has a end but the memories will live forever, and that's The beauty with travelling. So thank you kiwi experience for your network , for showcasing the country in a fantasic way, but especially getting people with different gender, age and nationalities together! because at the end we ALL are travelers. We are one.

The most sociable, straightforward way to do NZ
Makes the whole process of travelling so straightforward, it takes all the thinking and planning out of the equation and sorts it for you - you just have to show up! You really do see the whole country and can rest safe in the knowledge that you've ticked off all the main sights, attractions and activities. It's a great way to meet people, it really was amazing to show up in a new town or city and then bump into people you know from previous buses, its like a home comfort. My main point for improvement would be the system for booking ahead future buses. Although responses from the office were efficient I can't help feeling that the whole process of itinerary arrangements would be better if each traveller had an online log in or app, where they could amend their booking themselves. It becomes a little tedious to keep worrying about booking onto buses and making amendments through the office. Also feel the minimum time in Wellington, Wanaka and Kaiteriteri should be 2 nights, as you arrive late.

Good experience
I had a great experience with Kiwi. Met a ton of people and did a lot of different things! My only negative would be the fact that you sell out your busses and what is advertised as a hop on hop off bus, really isn't. I was lucky enough not to be on standby - but I know some people that were.. Pretty inconvenient if you ask me!
