Hello Smiler

Ive recently done a contiki in Canada and now im hungry for more!

Ive already decided i want to do europe next and i want to spend a while there (at least 4 weeks) and two big trips really intrest me, they are;

46 days Europe Camping (camping) and
45 days ultimate european (concept)

Both seem like huge trips compared to the 11 day trip i just did in Canada but i was hoping for some comparison between the who by people who have done them before
Anything i would expect to enounter differently on the two trips would be great, such as- money, attitude, age range, food, accommodation

Any input would be much appreciated!

Hey guys. I’m going on the Wild Western tour in Sep10. On my pre & post tour I have some days to chill & check out LA, & just want some advice on best transportation getting to theme parks such as 6 Flags magic mountain, Disneyland & Universal studios. I was maybe thinking of Hiring a vehicle for this. Good idea?
Any advice would be helpful Smiler

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone is thinking about going on the Northern Explorer in June/July 2009? Or if anyone has been on the tour and can recommend it? I would love to see some photos from the tour. I can’t seem to find a lot about this tour, so if anyone could let me know where I can, that would be great. As this will be my first time overseas and travelling with Contiki, I am a bit nervous (as I’m travelling alone) but also very excited. The date of the tour is the 24th June 2009 to 6th July 2009. I will be flying into LA on the 18th and catching up with friends before boarding the Amtrack Train from LA to Chicago arriving just before the tour starts (night before). Will then spend a few more days in LA before heading home. That’s the plan anyway…I am going to book my flights and tour in the next few weeks (as my travel agent said to wait) until there are a few more flights available (cheapest deal, hopefully!). Anyway would love to hear from you.
Cheers, Kylie

We are staying here (Dorian Inn in Athens) the first night before the group leaves for Greek island hopping. When we return the following week, I and probably many of the group will have to spend an addition night in Athens as all flights seem to go out in the mornings. Any advice as to whether to stay in the Contiki hotel that last night even though it is not part of my package, or should I go to a hotel of my choosing? Internet reviews of the Dorian Inn say it’s a decent place, but the area it’s located in can be a little scary.

Can you use a credit card for optional excursions? I hope so, because I would hate to have to carry around all that cash.

I was wondering how come the tours (I think all of them) only go through Belgium and none of them actually have a day/night there to explore???

Hi,

Just a quick question, i was wondering if someone would be able to advise why the Hot Air Balloon Ride in Cairo isn’t listed as an optional for this tour?

I has been offerred previously and i was looking at doing this while im in Egypt but now to find that it’s not listed is a bit upsetting.

Any answers would be great!!

Thanks

Hi everyone =]
Wanting to do the Ultimate European
Just one thing I wanted some light shed on

If we want to go clubbing in some cities during the tour, what is the transport like back to the accommodation
Do public services (buses, trains etc) still run after midnight?
Also with taxis, are they expensive? I don’t really want to waste money on this sort of thing.

Any help would be good =]
Thank you!
