    I've been on several tours with various companies, and was impressed by Flying Kiwi, especially considering it was a camping tour. The outdoor meals were better than expected, and there was a good mix of organized and independent activities. Our guides were very responsive to individual requests and did their best to make sure everyone had a great time. Well done!

    My only feedback is really the tents, maybe i am spoiled, but would have liked bigger tents as you stay in them every night. I had my own tent, can't imagine being two people in such a small tent.
    Flying Kiwi commented on this review
    Hi Pernille, thank you for your review and feedback it's great to hear you enjoyed your trip. Our tents are 3 person tents but we do only put a maximum of 2 people in each tent (unless you've hired a single tent to yourself as you had) to allow that... Show more

    We were skeptical about a group tour, but this was an amazing experience from start to finish. The itinerary was perfect and jam packed with so much natural wonder. Our guides were super passionate about their country and so helpful with planning the remainder of our trip. Couldn't recommend Flying kiwi highly enough!
