I am wanting to take a trip next year for my 30th birthday and would like to go to Australia. I am thinking about doing the Contrast Reef and Rock tour, does anyone have any advice on this tour? Also is it hard to travel AU alone or would it be better to do a tour?

I need to rent/hire a car for a few days prior to my tour? Arriving in Auckland and heading North to Whangarei/Tutukaka. Any suggestions? Which company is cheapest? Is renting/hiring from the airport is much more expensive? Should I consider taking the bus instead?

I am planning on doing a Contiki Tour of Australia next year and trying to figure out which is the best one to do. Can anyone make any suggestions? I unfortunately only have 2 weeks to play around with or else I would have just booked the 28 day Grand Explorer.

Right now the two trips that I were looking at were either the Nortern Territory or Reefs & Rainforest.

Thanks in advance
Z

hey all, just had a look in the dates and rates part of the site at the European adventurer tour, it shows in the key a symbol which shows what tours will be in Munich for Oktoberfest, but i just noticed that none of the dates have the symbol next to the tours anymore but they did have when i booked the tour. I’m just hoping contiki isn’t going to stuff us around and say we don’t get to go anymore as i chose that date for that reason otherwise i would be over there right now in the warmer weather! Does anyone have any idea if the tours are still going to Oktoberfest and they have just forgotten to put the symbols in when they upgraded the site.

hey!
I am going on the Euro Magic/superior tour and I was wondering if it would be worth it to pack my own hair dryer.
Do the hotels supply them in the rooms? If so, are they any good?
I am trying to save room in my suitcase and wondering if it is worth the weight haha!
Thank you!

Hi Guys,

I’m about to finish my tertiary studies (hopefully forever) and I haven’t been overseas in 5 years. I’ve previously done 2 contikis (a European explorer and a western highlights in North America).

Im interested in going to Hawaii to see the Volcanos, do some scuba, drinking etc… I was wondering if anyone has done the Hawaii Contiki? Theres a 3 or 5 day tour, though it just looks like accomodation on the website with no daily itinerary.

Ill be travelling solo this time.

My questions are…

Has anyone done the 3 or 5 day tour before? Was it worth it or would it have been better to organise something that wasnt a contiki?

Is it worthwhile going to Hawaii alone?

Do you have a group or something when on one of these? Im concerned about getting there and spending 2 weeks like the guy from castaway….

What is the conitki accomodation like?

Im guessing that there are daily activities that you sign up for everyday?

Is Hawaii more of a retiree holiday destination? Would I be better off going to Vegas/Europe to party?

I’d be going in June/July… Anyone know what the weather would be like?

Thanks in advance,

Mick

Hello, I am new to all this travelling stuff but me and my girlfriend just booked our Grand Northern tour for July 2010 today. We were wondering where the end point in LA/Anaheim is, and how easy it would be to get from there to our hostel on Hollywood Blvd?

Also, what time does the tour start in New York, and where is the pick up point?

I just booked the Coast and Whitsundays tour (reverse) for August 31, 2008. I am sure I, like most other people from the USA, will be exhausted after traveling 24 hours. My tour begins in Whitsundays and I know there will be a social meeting the day we arrive. I also know that lots of people will want to go out and party the first night. As much as I look foward to meeting everyone, I may be too tired and wish turn in early. Is this a typical thing for travelers on the day of arrival? Do some travlers crash as soon as they get off the plane and at the hotel?

So I’ve read about all the benefits of booking the flights through Contiki, but I have one question. If I book through Contiki and decide to stay back in London after the trip is complete, can I easily change my flight home? Better yet, can I book the flight through Contiki and leave the departure open ended, meaning I can select the date I want to leave when the trip is complete?
