I am planning a trip to Europe for May/June 2007 and am still unsure of which one to choose. Also i have no idea of how much additional spending money o take with me.
Anyone who has done either of these please help.
Would also like to hear from anyone who also is planning to travel during May/June/July 2007.

I was wondering what the actual town/city is called that is classified under ‘French Riviera’? Nice? Cannes? St Tropez?
Thanks

OK. I have been to London more times than I can count. So I have been there, done that. I am arriving on May 2nd for the European Magic tour. Can anyone suggest something that I could do whilst there for the day? I am at a loss.
Thanks!

Contiki is the best!!! I went on a 29 day tour “contrasts” around Europe in August of 06- France, Italy, Greece, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic, Switzerland and the Netherlands. If you have any Qs feel free to ask! For anyone going on a contiki… a good idea is to take some washing powder… you will find it helps as lots of places charge for it, or dont have washing machine facilities. goodluck! also if your going to Amsterdam beware haha nah its good fun!

Hi
I have booked and paid for a US contiki trip (Grand Southern) departing Feb 22 2008 as printed in your brochure.
However I have just looked at the website dates and it says the the NY-LA route departs on Feb 20.
I have booked flights according to these dates so obviously I am worried about what date it actually leaves as number 1 I don’t want to miss my tour start date and 2 I have booked flights.
If you could clear this up for me asap i I would really appreciate it

Hello everyone! I’m trying to decide on my first ever trip with Contiki. I’ll be traveling alone and I’m super nervous but I know I’ll make fast friends 
My thing is I can’t decide which tour!
I definitely want the London, Paris but which is the better extension:
Amsterdam or Rome?
I want to see both so I’m having a tough time deciding and anyone who has been there or who can offer some advice would be greatly appreciated!
Incidently, anyone traveling on one of the tours in Nov. – I’m looking at Nov. 14th-ish – let me know, that way maybe I’ll know someone before I go

I’m going on the Canada & the Rockies trip next month, and was wondering if anyone had suggestions about the easiest/quickest/cheapest way of getting from the Vancouver International Airport to the Sandman Hotel.
Thanks for your replies in advance!

Hey everyone haha I know this is probably going to sound quite silly but I’ll be travelling by myself which includes time in New York and I was thinking of getting some pepper spray to carry around with me as a “just incase” sort of thing.
Would anyone know a good place to recommend when it comes to buying some pepper spray?
Thanks xox

I was just wondering if anyone has done the OC Experience optional? I’m not a huge fan of the show, but thought it sounded kinda cool. Any opinions, good or bad?
10th May 2012
After my 46 day camping tour i am wanting somewhere to relax and catch up on my travels somewhere for a few days.
We finish in London but i am spending a week there before the tour.
I am thinking of Luxembourg but does anyone have any other cities/towns that would be nice?
10th May 2012
I was wondering if anyone had purcahsed and used any of the passes you can buy which cover admission into lots of museums, churches and transport and give discount on other stuff too in cities like Dublin, Florence, Rome, Amsterdam, Prague or any other of main cities in Europe.
Are they good value or are you better off to just pay admission into places you want to go to and pay for transport as well?
Any info or advice would be welcome. I’m doing Contrasts tour in few weeks and wondering if we should buy any of these passes before we go or once we get there.
Cheers

I am struggling with picking a tour date and was hoping for some help.
What is the weather like in Europe during early September? Will it still be reasonably warm out, or will it be a bit colder?
Can anyone tell me what the weather on the French Riviera is like in mid-september? Will it be too cold to go swimming/enjoy the beach? I want to be able to relax on the beach, but I also want to be in Munich during Oktoberfest.
I need to decide soon, so thanks for the advice! I’m hoping some experts can help me choose!!!
