Kiwi Experience

For the best backpacker experience on offer, Kiwi Experience is the leading off-the-bus New Zealand experience; Allow their world famous driver guides to not only transport you to Waitomo, but fill you with commentary, insights and helpful advice along the way.

October 2009 is Kiwi Experience's 20th Anniversary, and for 20 years their reputation, passenger numbers, awards, and word of mouth has spoken for itself. As New Zealand's largest, leading, and legendary bus experience they?d love you to continue the story and experience Waitomo with them - the way it should be seen.

Whether you have limited time or all the time in the world, you can design your trip from over 25 Kiwi Experience passes and stay in each place as long as you like.

Our New Zealand bus passes go to the very best parts of NZ, including Waitomo Caves and many unique places the average New Zealand backpacker tours don?t go. Use the Kiwi Experience Pass Map to work out which pass, or passes, fit best with your budget and timeframe, and ensures you make the most of every New Zealand day you?ve got!

After the beaches of the Coromandel, and geothermal attractions and Maori culture of Rotorua you'll be taken onto Waitomo and Taupo. Waitomo is famous for its labyrinth of underground caves. Explore them with a legendary black water rafting trip, or one of many nature walks. Taupo is one of New Zealand?s tourism mecca's, famous for the huge lake, Mt.Doom from Lord of the Rings (Mt.Ngaruhoe), and tandem skydiving. A great bus pass to see the North Island when you have a limited time.

Waitomo is consistently rated in New Zealand?s top 10 must see places, and black water rafting there as one of the top 10 activities. As a result many of Kiwi Experience passes already include this sector. Departing from Rotorua there?ll be plenty to see before you even get there. Once in Waitomo you?ll have the option of experiencing the Legendary Black Water Rafting Company, seeing the caves from a walk, rabbit shearing (strange but true!) and a whole lot more.
