    NOT ENOUGH BATHROOM BREAKS WELLINGTON TO AUCKLAND. My bladder is in literal pain and the driver told me I could go but wouldn’t be getting back on the bus. No stop for 3 hrs

    Caught it a number of times. departs from the intercity terminal at Skycity, mostly on time, late a couple times by ~10 minutes but nothing catastrophic. Main issue was that booking the tickets ahead of time is way broken - booked ahead twice, the email they sent doesn't tell you what time you've booked for, and the link to print the tickets doesn't work. Sure did take money from my account though :). Thankfully both time the drivers let me on, but the second time I had to show the driver my bank account transactions to prove I had paid for it. Utterly unacceptable for a company this big to take my money and give back a broken ticket. Airport services need to be reliable.

    I was on one of the very first small group tours (not the hop on hop off) they ran after everything opened after covid. I had a great experience and the driver guide was considerate, helpful, friendly and knowledgable and I loved being on the tour. Things might have changed by the time you read this, but it was really obvious that they were struggling to reach the same level of professionalism that I assume they had before covid. Our driver guide didn't have all the same tools and options he was used to and had to improvise more.

    Some activities had to be cancelled due to weather, but other than that I got to experience everything I wanted in New Zealand.
    The group was a good mix of different ages and nationaities and I had a really great time.

    While this is a hop on-hop off bus, while you are traveling with them it is very tour like.The bus brings you to the accommodation, en masse, so you are checking in at the hostel in a group of 50 or more, and going to attractions in the same en masse group. The bus then leaves at a very specific time the next day. The drivers are helpful only if it is information about a current stop. Ask anything extra for which they won't get a cut-back, and they don't know. Additionally, most of the travelers on this bus are 18-22, so if you are older, it is not much fun. We chose it because we wanted to get to the best spots easily, but in the long run, we would have been better off hiring a car. However, one good aspect is that riders with Kiwi get additional discounts off the price of the pricey activities.
