Paris
DAY 5:
Paris to Beaujolais Wine Region
Paris
Just before you get too comfortable in that beret and striped shirt combo, we're dragging you away in search of vineyards and châteaus.

Barcelona
Cobbled lanes of the Gothic Quarter, Montjuic hilltop vistas, & wild Spanish architecture will season our day to perfection.

Venice
Venice we love you, but we need to see a bit more of this boot to satisfy our hungry wanderlust ways.
Pisa
As if we were going to leg it from Venice to Florence without a sneaky side trip to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Depriving you of the chance to perfect the holding-up-the-tower shot would be down right criminal.

Florence
For those of you not familiar with the whole Florence deal, we have two words for you: it's heaven. Potter along the River Arno, be totally Tuscan with a drop of Chianti wine, and take in the beauty of the city and its protruding Duomo Cathedral.

I left this trip early due to it being very unlike what was represented in brochures, online and through talking to staff. Having to share a bed with someone else is not okay especially without forewarning. At the chateu we were in boiling hot rooms with no fans or room for anyone to have their suitcase properly laying down. I also thought the claim to offer Wi-Fi everywhere is ridiculous with a pathetic amount free for a whole month as well as accomodation having lack of connection which is continually interrupted especiallif trying to contact home during emergencies. Food provided in Paris was underwhelming. The pressure guides put on the me time optional is also frustrating, clearly trying to meet a sales target or budget. For the amount paid I feel I could have done the trip better myself. I am sad I had to leave my European adventure early because my money was put into the contiki trip. I would never recommend this tour to anyone. The only positive was the people and some of the scenery (the things contiki had nothing to do with)
