Brilliant trip, so well-organised with lots of activity choices catered to a wide variety of preferences/abilities. I liked having the option to choose something tough/exciting/adventurous like the Tongariro crossing (which was incredible!!) or something more laid-back/relaxing like the row-boat through the glow-worm caves or the hot pools. Overall an incredible experience! Would definitely recommend Wild Kiwi to a friend. Shout-out to Tom, our excellent tour-guide, great craic and a brilliant organiser.

Great trip, not rushed Lovely people on tour. Nice tour guide Tom Only thing is the need to be very decisive for the next day activities as it needs to be booked the day before usually

I was very grateful for my tour. Tom really was a tireless in his commitment to the group. He did all the driving without complaint, knew all the best places to visit for sightseeing and eating amongst other aspects of the trip. We got to see some amazing things, not least of all 'Hobbiton' with links for payment clearly provided. Activities were easy to pick with updates provided in a WhatsApp group chat. Would recommend Wild Kiwi tour for anyone visiting New Zealand. Thanks for an amazing experience

I booked Wild Kiwi's 7 day Northern Voyager tour as my first solo trip, and I cannot recommend the experience highly enough. The way Wild Kiwi works with organising in-country transport and accommodation took the stress out of everything; all I had to do was make my booking and turn up on the first day. The activities were all explained a few days ahead of time and I could opt in and out of any according to my own interests (and budget!). I met some awesome people on the tour. Our tour guide, Tom, was fantastic - he was incredibly personable, knowledgeable and welcoming. He was a wealth of information, telling us background about all the places we visited including the meaning of place names, and if we weren't doing certain activities, he had great alternatives to recommend. Tom kept us all on track and made sure each person was where they needed to be on-time. The North Island has so many beautiful sights - I had been nervous because everyone I know has only ever really talked about the South Island. I had an amazing time exploring the North and I would encourage anyone considering the tour to go ahead. I am already planning to return to do the South Island with Wild Kiwi as soon as I can!

If you’re unsure of booking Wild Kiwi, let me tell you it’s a must. So much to do and so much to see. Such a wide variety of activities to do. Even if you don’t want to do a listed activity, the towns you stop in are filled with other stuff too! Shout out to our guide, Tom, who absolutely made this a trip to remember! This truly was an experience you will never forget!

The trip was great, many activities to choose from. All the people on the tour were great aswell. I can’t forget the guide Tom, a great lad, good driver, very informative. The only issue with Tom is that he didn’t go skinny dipping 😢

The tour was a perfect blend of lovely people, breathtaking locations, and sporting activities. Thanks to the incredibly excellent organization of our tour guide, V., we lacked for nothing. She always ensured that everyone could participate in the activity they wanted. Her organization also created a feeling of security and ease, allowing us to enjoy every moment. I am very grateful for the experiences of this week.

Our tour guide V was very friendly and helpful. She had a positive attitude always and was very enthusiastic during the tour and wanted us to see/do as much as possible. It was a great group of solo travellers aged between 25-35. All the activities were great but my highlights were the Maori village tour and lake taupo sailing. We had a nice mix of activities and covered a lot on our 7 day trip. Only downside was that I booked through a third party and they got confused with what activities were included in the price of the trip. They told me activities stated in the itinerary were included but when I arrived on the first day I was asked to pay for them. I did contact the third party and they reimbursed me for activities explaining that the wild kiwi inclusions list was confusing for them and that feedback will be given. Would definitely book with wild kiwi again and would book direct next time! Thanks again V :)
