Labor day getaways

This foodie adventure takes you into the vineyards of the Beaujolais Wine Region, where your accommodation - our exclusive 16th Century Chateau - awaits. Across 4 days you'll get stuck into all of the flavours of France, including wine & cheese pairings; a day trip to Lyon for a foodie walking tour; a vineyard visit to try some of the world's finest drops and enough local food to make you mutter 'ooh la la' between every mouthful.

Looking for a quickfire getaway? Across 2 of the USA’s mightiest national parks (where you leave no hot spring unsprung)? This is the trip for you. Starting in Jackson Hole, you’ll take hikes in Grand Teton and Yellowstone, with a Trip Manager on hand to show you all the stand-out sites – we’re talking waterfalls, geysers, utterly artistic viewpoints, and even a few grizzly bears too.

The gateway to Europe? It can be a maze of confusion for the new kid in town. But hey, we got you. With your centrally-located hotel and included tix to the Hop On Hop Off bus, you can skip the weeks of fumbling with maps, catching wrong trains & accidentally eating at all the wrong places. You'll get easy access to see some of the top attractions in the city (and so much more!). These 3 days will leave you like a true local. Oh, and our experts at the Contiki Travel Hub in the Royal National courtyard will fill you in all the deets of the best foodie spots & hidden gems in town too!

First-time Europe? Start here. Think Amsterdam canals, Bavarian beer halls, Venice gondolas, Rome ruins, Florence art, Swiss mountain air and Paris after dark - all packed into 12 days with a crew that makes every stop feel bigger.

You can reel off the names of the Big 5, you've imagined yourself driving through the Serengeti in an open-top vehicle, and you've dreamed of going on safari since you first learnt how to say 'Hakuna Matata'. How about we throw in some views of the Great Rift Valley, a visit to an ancient volcano dense with game and predators, and nights camping under the star-swept skies of the Serengeti plains? Now this is the Africa trip you've been waiting for.

This is Croatia from the water. Spend 8 days sailing from Split through Hvar, Korčula, Dubrovnik, Trstenik and Makarska, where Adriatic swims, sun decks, white-stone streets and beach-to-bay days come with the territory.

In just 4 days, you’ll go from catching the mountain-top views (from a cable car) to exploring the nooks and crannies of Cape Town’s streets with a local guide. But that’s not all. You’ll also learn all about Apartheid, take a South African cooking class, taste authentic wine, and even kayak with penguins! It’s just one city, but it’ll keep you satisfied for days.
