Grand Explorer (Christchurch - Auckland) 31st Jan - 15th Feb
2 Oct 2010 Becca said
I'm booked on the Grand Explorer tour from Christchurch to Auckland. Anyone else booked on this yet? I'm a little nervous that the date's not set as a definite departure at the moment, all my flights (from the UK) are booked so it'd awful if it didn't happen!
This will be my first holiday of this kind (touring rather than staying in one place and also travelling alone) so I'm very excited as well as a little nervous! I can't wait to meet new people and experience everything New Zealand and Contiki have to offer!

We are from Aberta, Canada. I can’t believe that it is getting so close… I am getting very excited. Have you decided what optionals you are going to do yet?

Ooh, cool! I know, this time in 25 days I’ll be on the plane! I’d like to do almost all of the optional activities but the absolute must haves (though they’re the most terrifying!) are sky diving and the AJ Hackett triple challenge with 2 bungee’s and a canyon swing. How about you guys?

Hey! Awesome, we know that there are going to be at least 5 of us on this tour then! =D
Is anyone else going alone? I have to admit I’m getting just the teensy bit nervous now!
Looking forward to meeting y’all though. I think I’ve got everything ready and just need to pack (ok, maybe buy a few more clothes, lol) and get on the plane!- 0 people like this
