Unforgettable
I finished the kiwi experience just over a week ago and I absolutely loved it! Made the best of friends on the bus and saw and did some incredible things!! I would 100% recommend this to everyone. Best part of the trip? Fancy dress night! Would do it all again in a heartbeat!

I loved most of it!
I travelled in Nz with Kiwi Experience for 3 weeks which was a little bit too short for me in the end. ( Could've been a whole month maybe a bit more) I am travelling alone, so I thought that travelling with a tour is probably a good idea. And it WAS a good idea. I met the nicest people and our group was like a small family. The best thing was when we all went to the Adventure Inn in Abel Tasman where we all cooked, drank and watched movies together (in the huge cinema). Also I was very happy about the change of our driver. Nancy was my favorite of all 4 bus drivers we had. All in all I was quite happy. The only negative thing I have to say is that the prices for the hostels and also for the activities are way more expensive than booking it by yourself. But you still want to be with everyone together so you just book it with them. It's easier but more expensive!

Sad that it's over!
I bought this about a year ago and expected it to be a less organised tour as I had been travelling solo for a while, I expected it to more just a bus and it felt more like a glorified schooltrip, but as I got used to it I did enjoy it loads! Could have taken it easier on the clipboards though

Unbelievable and unforgettable!
I travelled through NZ in February 2017. Started in Auckland and finished in Christchurch. We finished the loop early as the last part, back on the North island, backtracks on itself a little bit. We then flew back to Auckland to save time. Ww had an incredible 4 weeks in New Zealand that I would recommend to anyone! There are big activities you can do nearly every day,and they are spread out quite well throughout the country. I spent around £2500/£3000 whilst there in 4 weeks. We only missed two trips out due to wanting to save money for the rest of travelling. We went in their summer, so the weather was perfect 95% of the time. We had rain once. The only downfall to the summer is that it's peak season and the 'hop-on hop-off' feature is quite hard to do. If you stay somewhere longer than the recommended time, you are off the bus. And the bus behind might be full. So you can get stuck in one place until a seat is available on another bus. That being said, hardly anyone on the bus deviates from the recommended time. And the two times we did, we were fortunate and got on a bus the day we wanted to continue. I recommend at least 5/6 days in QUEENSTOWN! By far the best place. So much to do! You will make friends for life. Enjoy!

Good opportunity when alone
The kiwi experience is a great opportunity for when you want to travel but not alone. You will meet a lot of people and see the highlights. It would not be my first choice when you can find travel mates in another way because you can't stop whenever you want. But thats the only thing.
