You get to really experience what New Zealand has to offer. Trips are broken into short bursts and always travel during the day. Kiwi Experience have been doing this for ages, so they know some really special places and hidden secrets. One day you might trek through lush jungle, the next you could be kayaking with dolphins. Learn to surf, skydive onto a beach, raft the whitewater or trek across gobsmacking glaciers - it's all up for grabs. Not to mention getting up close with the friendly locals! Do it your way! This is your trip - so do it your way. You're free to travel where and when you like on the bus network. You've also got 6 months in which to do it, with unlimited stops, regular departures and the inside scoop on where to stay and what's happening. Other than that, it's a chance to make yourself a million times more interesting. On the road The drivers know the ropes because they're traveller's themselves and love their country. They also know they can make the difference between a regular trip and a true experience. Every driver has a great sense of humour, a taste for adventure and they know that you want to have the time of your life! They'll even help you with advice and fill you in on the local customs - 'cause there's no substitute for local knowledge. Mate-making journeys Some bring back awesome stories. Some bring back special friends. And some even bring back true love! One of the best things about travelling is the people you meet on the way. You'll hook up with an awesome crowd of locals, not to mention a great bunch of fellow travellers who are pretty much guaranteed to share your thirst for adventure (and refreshing amber fluids!). Buy before you fly! You'll save extra cash for your travels by buying your pass before you leave the UK. Plus you'll also get a huge range of special discounts on adventure activities, flights, food, drinks and more once you get to New Zealand! Where you'll stay You can choose where you want to hang out and get some shut-eye, but the Kiwi Experience can book it if you prefer. That way, you get to spend more time enjoying thrill-therapy and less time looking around for a place to sleep. Everywhere comes highly recommended and the Kiwi Experience will do their best to get you the best possible rates. Eco-friendly The Kiwi Experience believes in sustainable eco-tourism and support, wherever possible, other organisations who feel the same way. They'll get you up close and personal with the local wildlife as safely as they can, as well as help you understand the culture without damaging the delicate eco-systems.

to what is commonly referred to as "The most beautiful place in New Zealand",
and one of the wonders of the natural world. The Milford Sound Overland
Adventure is a day trip from Queenstown to Milford and return. On your way
into Milford Sound you will get the opportunity to stop at some great lookouts
and do some short bushwalks. Once in Milford Sound you will go on a boat
cruise to the underwater observatory and see all the marine life that lives
in the depths here. Milford Sound is dominated by the majestic Mitre Peak,
and has a host of beautiful waterfalls, and epic landscapes within its boundaries.
No trip to New Zealand is complete without a trip to Milford Sound. There is an option to hop off the bus in Te Anau, and/or Milford Sound to overnight so you can still utilise the 12 month validity of your pass. |
