  I did the European Encounter in 2008 and it was awesome!!
  I think 2 Contiki tours will be fun, but you may need to consider a bit of a break between tours. They can be pretty full on with early starts and late nights.
  
  I am doing another Contiki in May this year. I am also planning on doing a tour through Asia next year and a tour through America in 2012. Breaks in between so save money etc….
  
  Hope this helps???

  Never too many Contikis, haha. I did one in Europe and one in Australia, and both were much fun. I had already been to Europe once before with a study abroad program, (and I wanted something different than churches, museums, etc), so I went to Australia. It was great to go snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, etc. I would do Contiki for a 3rd time, but they don’t offer anything to South America . . . yet

  I’m doing two contiki’s at the end of this year with a week between them :P doing GB/Ireland and then Winter Wanderer after. I did a Contiki a few years ago through NZ and I absolutely loved it!!! Could have spent another 6 weeks doing it!! (though would have run out of money.
  If you’re planning a few weeks in between you should be right!! Will give you a chance to explore on your own and recuperate a bit before heading off again!!!

  Ahh thanks heaps, I am thinking that if I have the money I will do both for sure.
  
  Riverstar33, what you are doing is one of two options I am currently tossing up. The other is the Ultimate European.
  
  I was going to do Ireland and Scotland on my own but I am a bit scared and think having mates and a tour showing you the highlights would be fab.
  
  Thanks again!
