Travel in North America with Contiki

USA & Canada travel has something for just about everyone. National parks. Beautiful beaches. Big cities. So, what to see first? Head to the bright lights of NYC or beachside vibes in California on our USA trips. Or travel Canada and take in the bustling west coast city of Vancouver, Toronto and the thundering Niagara Falls i.e the 2nd largest waterfall in the world! Our trips take care of the stuff you’d usually have to sort out while you’re there, like accommodation, entry to big landmarks, food and even island cruises. That’ll leave you with way more time to enjoy your experience (and make friends along the way!) Because at Contiki, we believe social travel is the best way to see the world. Whether it’s in the coach or that first dinner all together, you’ll meet some awesome travellers on your trip, all aged 18-35 like you. Check out our USA & Canada trips today.
