Price Comparison - Kiwi Experience
Nakedpassport's prices are also very competitive in the coach and tour sector. Kiwi Experience passes is Backpacker's tour pass around New Zealand.
There are a number of differences between the two products.
- Kiwi Experience is a tour bus with commentary and even stop at tourist destinations along the way. Whereas Nakedpassport's bus services take you from point A to point B.
- We have considered the value of free inclusions in the pass and taken it off the price of the ticket before the price comparison
- We have taken into account that most travellers would be a YHA, ISIC, VIP or NOMADS card holder and has taken the discount off the price before the price comparison
We choose to compare it with the Funky Chicken because it is a popular pass for many backpackers that come to New Zealand for the first time and would like to explore both the North and the South island. The price comparison is for the itinerary specified as at 20 July, 2009. We consider the comparison to be reasonable, representative sample itinerary.
