hi, i know that you do a fair bit of drinking while on contiki but how often would you go to clubs,real nice resturants ect.. iv been told alot to minimise the amount of clothes/shoes you take but im a fashion-aholic & while during the day i just go pretty casual when it comes to going out i love to dress up & wont go out casual, so i know im probably going to end up with to many clothes.
(i just went on a 1 week holiday & didnt wear at least a third of my stuff just to give an indication of my over packing habit)
Aaarg! What am i to do! Lucky iv got till september to try fix this dilemma!
What would be the most amount of shoes any of you girls out there would take???

Hi all! I am heading to England, Italy (on Simply Italy tour), Greece and Thailand in May/June this year. I am wondering whether anyone is getting the swine flu vac before they go? I have not thought of it before now as I have had all my vacs for Thailand before. But yes – to get, or not to get, the swine flu vac – what do we think?

Does anyone know if you can buy a sleeping bag at the Contiki basement in London? And if you can, how big are they, and how much do they cost? I’m having a lot of trouble deciding if I should bring one or try and get one in London that I can leave behind at the end of the tour (if it wasn’t too expensive to start with).

hi all,
I just thought of a wonderful idea (we i thght it was!!) to save a few EURO’s here and there… I hope it will work!
As we all need water, i figured i’d buy one of those drink bottles that purify the water for you? that way instead of buying bottled water everywhere you can just get water free from the tap and let the bottle clean it for you?
Has anyone else done this? You think will work?
99 days and counting!!!

Hey,
My husband and I are going on the European Encounter July 9 to 26. Has anyone here done the Encounter, and do you have any helpful comments or advice about this particular trip?
I am concerned about the ’tourist traps"—the perfumery sounds like a giant commercial to buy perfume—that sort of thing.
Does anyone know of any things to see and do that are off the beaten path, ie flea markets, etc? Thanks!

so im arriving in NZ at the beginning of march, im spending 13 days there before i fly home. i’ll be in the south island first for the majority of my time, and then i have 3 days up in the north before i leave. does anyone have suggestions on how many warm pieces of clothing i’ll need for this time of year in the south? i know its still the tail end of their summer…sorta getting into fall. im coming from australia after spending a month in shorts, ts and flip flops… so i need to know how much space to save in my backpack for long pants and longsleeve tops and if i even need a hat or something? thanks

i have been on this website in almost a month and i noticed there are several tours missing including the one i was hoping to go on next summer. What happened to them? Did they cancel them or something else?

Does anyone know if the Imperial Hotel in London allows early check-in? I arrive at 6:30am (so probably 7:30 by the time I make it to the hotel), but check in isn’t until 2pm? If not, do they have storage for luggage, or would I have to store my luggage at the Royal National?
Thanks for any help!

Hi, does anyone have any thoughts about whether to use Contiki’s travel protection ($169), get independent travel protection, or do without it? I’m positive I will be going on this trip, so it’s mainly a matter of whether the flight gets canceled or whether I will have any baggage/medical issues during the trip.
I’m also confused because Contiki implies that for tours in certain countries, travel protection is required. Does this apply to Western Europe? The total cost of the tour and tickets will be around $3100. About to book a “last minute deal” so I’d really appreciate any advice. I depart from the US and will be flying in and out of London. Thanks!
