Adventure of a Lifetime
I bought my pass three months ago and that was a great decision because I met a lot of new people and saw many great spots of this beautiful country. Thanks for that!

I loved it'!
It was a great experience. After 11 months Australia i didn't want to think about anything and just jump on the bus. They brought me to wonderful places. It is a good way to see both island in a short time. Or even a long time if you stay longer in a place.

Loved every second!
Best way to travel around New Zealand and make new friends. Our bus drivers joined in with all the fun and became friends just like everyone else. They stop at all the good photo opportunities and take you to the main places you want to go. Some of the accommodation is a bit overpriced but you have the option of booking your own at most of the stops, which I would recommend.

Trip around South Island
Nice length of days with enough stops to stretch our legs, find food, etc. I didn't sign up for most of the activities that had sign-ups passed around, but appreciated having the sign-ups and the accommodation made easy! Some of the activities are things I'll consider if I come back and visit NZ again. The Milford add-on was also an excellent value, though a pretty long day. :)

Best Experience!!
When me and my friends came here, we had no idea how to travel around, so we went to happyTravels and booked our KiwiExperience Bus pass. It was the best decision i could make. Accommodation is always guaranteed, the busdrivers are awesome and you get always discount on really wonderful activities. The unique places are also really good and I had a lot of fun. Thank you so much for that.

Am awesome experience!!!
I must say that after I bought the pass many people said that I made a mistake, that it is a party buss in the worst way and that I eill not have any fun. Well, I'm so happy to say they were sooooo wrong. The bus itself is great. The drivers are fantastic, helpful, knowledgable and friendly. The activities tick every. box of the things on my wish list and the people I met on the bus were so great. I will be sharing my amazing experience with everyone who will want to hear and in every NZ group I am on. I traveled NZ for 2 months and I was actually sad on my last Kiwi bus rid. That green bus was a big part of why my time inNZ was so perfect.

So much fun!
I wasn't sure what to expect with the Kiwi bus but I had such a great time on it. We stuck with the same driver (Guy) most of the way and we did loads of games and quizzes which broke up the journeys. It was all very well organised and generally the accommodation was a good standard. We saw lots of amazing scenery and I met some great new friends along the way who I'll keep in touch with. I would definitely recommend it to people travelling alone as it's very sociable. :)

Unforgettable Kiwi adventure
New Zealand was our first stop off on our 6-12 month travels. Kiwi was a great experience, a perfect way to see New Zealand on minimum time. We met so many great people which we will keep in contact with. Truly an amazing holiday/trip. Billy was our favourite driver and handled our breakdown very well and kept people calm, collected and humorous.

Awesome Experience
Kiwi Experience was great fun. Best way to see every inch of the country. Drivers were friendly and helpful. We loved majority of the overnight stays and unique activities. Only complaints revolve around timing. It is not as relaxed "hop on hop off" as we had expected (had to call the office every time you decided to vary from schedule which can be difficult traveling with no phone) and during long travel days, often had to wait over an hour at a bathroom break to get back on the road. Overall, New Zealand was amazing and the Kiwi bus is the best way to see it!

My experience!
When me and my friend bought the kiwi-pass I didn't know what to expect, I hadn't heard that much about it. But it turned out to be the best thing ever, I'm so happy that I chose kiwi experience cause I've met friends for life, thank you!
