So so so much fun!
Kiwi takes you to some awesome places and the drivers have good local knowledge of the history and fun things to do in the area! You meet some lovely people along the way and it's never a dull moment! Great way to travel around New Zealand - especially as a solo traveller.

Excellent way to get about.
We would not travel around NZ except this way.

Great Time
Kiwi Experience was such a fun organised time. It's the perfect choice for someone travelling alone or if you just wanted your travelling to go smooth and easy. They make accomodation and booking activities so easy whilst taking you to remote awesome local places. Also, very easy to make friends and be social.

Very good
My boyfriend and I had a great time! Loved it and can't wait to come back for the North Island.

Nice
Good price and love the accommodation and activities slips, makes it so easy. Would prefer the recommended stops to be longer and hence have more free days and keep the driver as it went too quickly!!!

Best Month of My Life
I easily had the best month of my life, made friends for life and saw the most incredible things... I would recommend Kiwi Experience to anyone, New Zealand is an incredible place and Kiwi Experience is definitely the best way to do it. Also, Guy was the best professional backpacker ever and made this trip for all of us

Best month ever
Had such a great month on kiwi experience! All the activities that you can book on the bus are amazing! Some are quite expensive if you're on a budget but you always get to the free stuff mentioned on the kiwi ex app. The drivers are lovely, we were lucky to get a great driver on our first stop - guy, who made everyone on the bus feel welcomed and made us one big family. It really depends who your driver is and the people on your bus, some of our buses were a bit tame but I've heard other people have had mental buses. The guaranteed first nights accommodation is useful and means you don't have to book ahead, in most of the stops if you want to stay longer normally the hostels have room but check with your driver to see what he recommends. We had to book an apartment in wanaka because there was no room in the hostels. It's easy to stay extra nights in places, you just call up the kiwi ex office, in most places you can do it the night before and get a guaranteed spot on the next bus but just be aware that some buses might have waiting lists which may not clear up. Overall I had an amazing month and met the best people on the way and definetly made friends for life!

Great experience
I bought this pass after hearing good things from friends. I am so glad I did, the bus showed me some beautiful places in New Zealand. It also provided me with with lots of knowledge and information on the country and its history. To top it of I have made lots of great friends along the way!

Amazing trip!
Best trip, so organised and loved it. Some of the drivers were way better than others! Loved meeting people on the bus and the activities the drivers put in to help us get to know each other.

Amazing trip!!
Highly recommend this for anyone!! We had the most amazing time and met so many friends on the bus. The stops were really organized and the activities were great too. Dave was an incredible bus driver with lots of knowledge to share about all of the places and nature. He really helped to make the experience for us!! If you are debating whether or not to do kiwi experience the answer is simple, definitely!!
