Tomorrow we have another Greek port of paradise to fall in love with.
Stay
Paradise Beach Resort (or similar)
DAY 20 - Mykonos
Mykonos
Sleeping all day because you danced all night is not an option. Well, technically it is. But wasting a day of glorious sunshine on the island of Mykonos won't be the best decision you've ever made.

Stay
Doro City Hotel (or similar)

We can't tease you the whole way to Zadar - a stunning stop off in Split is 100% necessary. Wander through the domain of Diocletian’s Palace in the city centre, gob-smacked by the sheer talent of those way back when Romans. 220 buildings and a huge cathedral will be enough to make your head spin.

The Greek island were amazing you got to spend time there and chill out on the cruise with unlimited alcohol which was included as well as endless food from the buffet it was a holiday in a holiday
Contiki has been the best decision i have made. The beautiful places we went to (18x countires!), amazing history provided by our Tour Manager, the driving skills of our Coach Driver, the amazing humans & souls i met on this tour that have become lifelong friends that i got to experience everything with. There were good days and bad days as it was a full 33 day tour but more good days that far out wieghed the bad. Contiki was the best thing that could have happened to me and i absolutely have #noregrets
There was room for improvement in the way that destinations were described to ensure that what we got matched what was advertised e.g. “travel to the Swiss alps and see snow”. However all in all very good value for money
althought my contiki crew was great. I was less than impressed with the contiki representative on the crews. It appeared that he offloaded at the responsible onto my tour manager and my only real exposure to him was at a rodes. where the walking orientation was as simple as "if you want to go to the beach follow me, old town is that way'.

Contiki was the best thing that could have happened to me #noregrets
Contiki has been the best decision i have made. The beautiful places we went to (18x countires!), amazing history provided by our Tour Manager, the driving skills of our Coach Driver, the amazing humans & souls i met on this tour that have become lifelong friends that i got to experience everything with. There were good days and bad days as it was a full 33 day tour but more good days that far out wieghed the bad. Contiki was the best thing that could have happened to me and i absolutely have #noregrets

So many destinations included, slightly rushed at times but this would be unavoidable due to how much we got to see.
