Great way to see the island in limited time!
Bought this package just for the South Island. Was flying out for my friends wedding in Christchurch however wanted to see the island before the big day. I feel like I packed in a lot of activities and different places along with meeting new people. A lot of times spent on the bus although worth it when reaching each destination. I would have liked to have had the time to stop over longer in certain areas, which would be possible when not on a schedule.

Fun experience
We did it last month. It was so fun but busy as well! Sometimes we would liked to stay a bit longer and other places we would rather skipped. But all over all we loved it.

Way better than expected!
I bought this bus pass over half a year ago, and it is way better than I expected. I had in mind that the kiwi experience busses where a bit like the grey hound busses in Australia, but not at all. I really liked that the bus stopped so many places on the way so we could see as much as possible of NZ and it’s beautiful nature. The only thing that was on the down side about the busses was that the flexibility of the days you want to catch a bus from one place to another was very bad, and you had to book all times for the bus before your starting the trip (a least in the high season). But all around the trip was amazing!!!

Amazing adventure!
I did the South and sound tour. Although I only allowed myself the minimum time due to an imminent flight. The tour was well set out and I was able to do everything that I went out to NZ to do. Although the kiwi experience system was confusing at first, a few days on the coach and it becomes second nature. This tour is highly recommended, it is a hassle free way of exploring one of the most beautiful countries in the world while making a great group of friends, i.e. the perfect travelling experience.

Perfect Holiday trip!
Me and my friend wanted to travel New Zealand, but we were not keen on driving ourselves. Neither did either of us know what places to visit or what to see/do. That is why Kiwi Experience feel like a logical choice and we have not regretted it!

Amazing experience!!
I heard about KiwiE while traveling through Australia and wasn’t too convinced. I Bought my ticket a week before my flight to New Zealand and I couldn’t have had a better experience. 1 month was perfect timing to really enjoy all the stops get to know all people on the bus and ultimately have the best adventure ever.

Amazing experience
Kiwi experience is a nice way to explore NZ. The only negative thing I would have to say is that you spend a lot of time on the coach. More than necessary for the hostels to get ready. Be prepared for long times on a coach, with very limited WiFi. Besides that, it is a great social adventure and I would recommend it. I had a great time!

Can’t recommend it enough!
My time on the Kiwi bus was absolutely amazing. Its without a doubt the best way to explore the country - the guides are brilliant, you visit the best spots in NZ, receive discounts on hostels, activities, nights out etc and most importantly you meet amazing people along the way. Every day is different and you’re never bored! I can’t wait to go back already. Thank you Kiwi Experience!
