  I’m from Wellington in NSW its not really much of a town lol! I’ll be 21 by the time we go so its guna be an exciting year for me <!--graemlin::)-->
  the extras I want to do are George’s Boat, and maybe a tour of Pompeii, the volcano tour thing in Santorini and my friend told me the flamenco dancing in Paris was awesome so I was thinking maybe that too!
  I cant wait I’ve been like obsessing over this trip for ages now!

  I officially booked my place on this trip yesterday! I can’t wait!! I’m leaving aus on the 6th so i’ll have a few extra days in London and i’m staying one extra day in Athens at the end. My passport should be here any day now!
  
  Is anyone else having extra days?

  I am arriving in London on the 7th and staying at the Royal National so I have a few days before the tour starts. When the tour is finished i have booked a flight from athens back to london but i think i might stay in europe and travel a lil bit more. If anyone is interested in staying longer with me and running a muck it would be great. Im meeting a friend over there and may go to Ibiza and party for a couple of weeks.

  Hello, everyone I am considering booking this trip next week! I see that there are alot of girls going alone, yay! I am doing a Contiki next week to Egypt and I’m kind of waiting to see how that goes. I am going to do the London to Athens plus Greek Island Hopping. I wanted to get on here first and see if people were going to arrive a few days early/stay late? I would like to add on a few days at the beginning and possibly a while at the end (a week give or take.) Let me know!
