One of the best holidays of my life
Decided to go to new Zealand alone and was the best decision I could have made. Met so many great people along the way.

Kiwi
Cuddles was the best driver ever! Was super helpful and a cracking sense of humor, he was always giving us special tips and went the extra mile to make sure we made the most of our kiwi experience. I was so glad to have him again on the South Island.. Amanda was also very nice and explained everything clearly. We had a driver from Wellington to Kaiteriteri on the 4th February who was extremely rude and passive aggressive. He was reluctant to help us and very patronizing

The easiest way to travel NZ
We found it really easy to book accommodation and activities through the KE. The worst thing about the experience is that during peak season it’s not the hop on hop off adventure it’s described as. We had Josh (with the beard) as our driver for a stretch and he was brilliant, we were really sad to leave him! He was really helpful, funny & genuine. We also had Ninja for the stretch into Queenstown and again he was one of our favourite drivers as he was so helpful, not to mention he had a great playlist! Grant on the bottom bus, Deep South section, was another great driver & really made the trip

Sweet AS!
It was awesome. But just remember to plan you trip ahead of going so you don’t get stuck on standby :)

Memory of a lifetime
Going through the South Island with kiwiexperience was the best thing I ever done. It wasn’t just going to the places that you booked your bus, it was many small stops along the way. I absolutely loved it! I saw so much, got to know so many people and had the best time of my life! I would recommend everyone I know to do this. You won’t regret it.

A great way to see New Zealand
I would recommend kiwi experience to others but I think more information should be provided about the standby by issue and where to spend extra days. I had some great drivers but some were a bit unhelpful. It’s a great way to meet people if you’re a solo traveller but just make sure you organise your itinerary early if you have a limited amount of time. I’d recommend flying to Auckland and finishing in Christchurch rather than returning to Auckland.

Great people and places
Although it ended up being more expensive that I thought. The places were beautiful and the people I knew were so nice and amazing. Defenitely this was an experience that i will never goin to forget.

I had a blast
I’m really glad I went on the kiwi experience, it was my first trip alone so this was a great way to easily meet good friends and at the same time see all that new Zeeland has to offer!

Good experience
I travelled on on Kiwi Experience with 2 other friends to discover New Zealand. What I enjoyed the most was how easy it was to meet new people from everywhere and the social aspect of the trip. Activities proposed are great and diverse, but I would maybe have spend more time in certain places, less in some others. River Valley to me was the best place we stayed at, along with Lake Manihapua.

Amazing Experience
When I decided to travel alone I was afraid I would’nt find many friends. But I did make friends for life!
