  Hi Izzie,
  
  I’m doing the North by North East on the 8th July which I think from what I’ve read combines with the Grand Northern from NY to Chicago.

  No, I did New York New Year & the Grand Southern at the beginning of this year.. I’m working in Canada at the moment so I’m doing a few more tours and some travelling around before I head back home to Australia late next year. Is it your first contiki tour?

  Hey Amy and Summer this will be my fifth I’ve done Grand Explorer NZ, European Explorer, I did the Best of USA last year and then did Egypt & The Nile earlier this year. So are you originally from Australia Amy? If so where? I’m from Perth. I think this tour will be heaps of fun I only get to do half of it but it sounds like we’ll get to see a lot. I’m especially looking forward to seeing Niagara Falls they look amazing!

  Hi Amy, hi Shenae, yes it’s my first contiki tour. I lived in Sydney for three months – I totally love Australia btw. <!--graemlin:;)--> I am looking forward to doing the helicopter flight across the Grand Canyon. Quebec looks also simply amazing.

  Hi Summer & Shenae! I’m originally from Australia Shenae, I’m from Brisbane. Where are you from Summer? I’m looking forward to the helicopter flight across the Grand Canyon too – we didn’t get to do it on the Grand Southern I was on because of snow & fog. I’m also looking forward to Chicago, Quebec, Mt Rushmore, Yellowstone…I’m looking forward to the whole tour! <!--graemlin::)-->

  Hi Tracy and Katrina. Great to see that there’s even more people now! Tracy I’m also travelling on my own and I’ve done a few previously on my own and loved it. There’s normally quite a few people travelling on their own and don’t worry you normally end up meeting heaps of people really quickly. When is everyone getting to New York? I’m there from July 4th so if anyone wants to catch up prior to the tour let me know :)

  I am doing the tour by myself too and I haven’t traveled on my own before either. I’m a little nervous but i am sure the nerves will go as soon as i get on the tour.

  I’m doing this trip by myself too. I did 6 weeks in Europe a couple of years ago by myself and it was awesome! Half the tour were travelling by themselves. We’ll have a couple of drinks the first night and it’ll be like we’ve all been together for ages!
