I am an NFL fan and I wanna buy some gear while I am doing the Eastern Discovery or NbNE tour in May/June.
Is there a store I can go to, similar to that of the AFL shop in australia, or do I have to order it online or from a catalogue?
I know it is a strange questions but I was wondering if anyone knew an answer.

Hi! I would like to go on a trip this summer…haven’t decided yet. However, my only concern is that I may be the oldest person going! I am a 29 yo female, and was wondering if there will be any girls or boys that will be close to my age? Please tell me your experiences.
Thanks… and enjoy your vacations!!!!

Hey Guys
I am doing Grand Southern in Jan and was looking at the optionals and wondering which ones were the best. I won’t be able to afford to do all of them and so hoping you guys can tell me which you enjoyed the most.
Would love any comments too if you want to write about a specific one or give me some feedback on which ones were good/not good or things to do instead to save money. ![]()
Would appreciate any input.
Thanks in advance

I’d just like to hear any advice from past travellers about luggage!!
I’ve heard that the contiki villages don’t have lockers for luggage/bags and I’m wondering whether this is true or not!
Moreover, I’m interested to know whether there are times when we will have to carry our luggage with us during the day – I don’t mean from the bus to rooms or onto ferries and the like, but whether we’ll need to carry all our luggage during sightseeing or antyhing…I’m on a 6 week tour and I’m wondering whether to pack light or not to worry!!
Thanks!

Im thinking of doing a contiki europe tour and then flying over and doing an American one, has anyone done this and if so any tips, i cant decide between the two so i have decided to do both at once. I know its a personal thing but which country did people find the best; pros and cons?

Could someone recommend which would be better, considering my age: 34. What are the major differences between Concept & Timeout tours? I know these two tours are almost the same. Which is better value for money.

Hey guys,
I am doing the European Adventurer on the 10 August – 16 Septemeber so it will be the hight of summer in Europe but the temperatures don’t seem to be that hot in the Northern European countries.
What kind of clothes should i pack? I am thinking it is going to be hot in the southern european area but places like germany and paris (at this time of year) would you still be wearing pants? or just more like shorts and a cardi??
Thanks

Just curious as hotel reviews on tripadvisor.com lead me to believe that many of the hotels in London do not offer the option of checking bags in (via a bell hop) prior to romm check-in and also on the other end, it appears they do not/can not hold your luggage after you check-out until you leave for the airport. Does anyone know if this is factual? My flight gets in at 6am and if check-in it not until 2pm, is there any place I can store my luggage while I walk around the city?

I’m doing the Cairns and the Sunshine trail (reverse) ending in Brisbane, then spending a few days on my own there. Where does the bus drop you off in the morning when the tour ends?

Hi guys,
I’ve booked a trip to go on the Grand Southern Adventurer tour in september 2007. I have been booked for September 17th till September 29 starting in Christchurch, but now this is not listed on the website even though I have been given assurances from my travel agent and contiki that it is still going ahead. I do see one for the 18th till the 29th however, but its a reverse tour. Does anyone know what is happening???
