  That’s exciting! Where are you looking forward to going to most? Have you started thinking about what you’re going to pack yet?

  I’m definitely looking forward to Egypt & Gallipoli the most. I’ve started on my list, but I haven’t done very much on it so far.

  This tour is really interesting me… i’m most likely going to book it for April….
  Have you guys done any other tours with Contiki?
  Do you bring a suitcase at all or just your traveling back?

  This will be my first contiki tour – but I don’t think it will be my last.

  I’m taking my suitcase – what about you for both questions?

  Depending who you talk to contiki reps go both ways regarding a suitcase or backpack. It’s really up to you, I’m too short nd weak and have a sore back all the time from work so a wheeled bag works for me :)

  I’ve been to London and a few places around there and been to france but cant remember the name, when I was in my uncles wedding :) and been to America. I can’t wait for Europe again :)

  My only concern is I’m just a canadian citizen so I’m not sure if the same rules apply…. Did contiki provide anything to you guys inregards to the visa where we can get them before or
  See requirements and such?
