Easy, Relaxed and Flexible Adventure Tours
The buses do a continuous loop of New Zealand,
which means that you can join and finish at any point on the route. The tours on this site have the most common
departure city as the starting point.
You can choose to see the whole country with
us (27/28 days) or choose a shorter trip.
There will be people leaving and joining the trip when we go through the
main cities so you get a great flow of new and old "Flying Kiwi-ers" on the trip. The good news is that it is not a hop on,
hop off bus so there will always be some people that you know – not a total new
group to get to know every day.
If you have a longer period of time in New Zealand
you can leave the trip (in any multiple of nine days), spend the time exploring
a region more thoroughly then rejoin the next bus through. There is no limit on the number of stopovers
you can do so you could spread your travels over a year or two if you want!
Ages - its all about the people
Unlike other tour companies we don’t have
any age restrictions so you will often find people from 16 years to 76 years enjoying
the Flying Kiwi way. From experience we
have found that it does not suit children less than 10 years of age and our average age is around 28.
Healthy and tasty food
| Most meals are included (check the
itinerary). The guides do the shopping
and we organise you into cook groups to help with meal preparation, cleaning up
etc. On average you would help with the
cooking every four days. The
cook groups are a great way to relax and make new friends whilst chopping the
onions. See the food page for more details.
We cater for most diets eg vegetarian,
vegan, non dairy etc. Let us know at the
time of booking if you have special dietary requirements. Our trailers contain the kitchen and all
the equipment we need to prepare tasty and healthy meals. See the food page for more details.

To keep the cost of the tours down we need
you to help, so you will be putting up your own tent – 5 minutes at the most
for our hire tents. The guides will show
you how if you need some guidance. For more information please check out our accommodation page as there are also cabin options available.
Cycling
Cycling is totally optional. See the cycling page for more detail.
Optional
Activities
New Zealand is famous for being the world’s adventure capital. We give you the opportunity to try a lot of
the activities but unlike other buses we do not pay the guides any commission
to sell you these activities. So there
will be no pressure to bungy jump or skydive from the guides. There are always cost free alternatives such
as walks etc, so you will not be sitting on the bus waiting for 20 people to
bungy jump.
See our activiies page for more information.
Extending
Trips
Having so much fun that you decide to
extend your trip? Subject to
availability you can add on another trip and we will give you a 10% discount
off the tour fee of the extra trip. The
longer the tour the lower the average daily cost.
