Although close to the Costa Blanca , the dramatic massif of Sierra de Aitana in Spain has remained a secret from all but a few discerning visitors. We follow traditional footpaths and mule tracks, mostly along ridge lines, for spectacular panoramas, and then descend to beautiful valleys with natural springs and limestone amphitheatres. The rocky peaks and steep valleys that sweep down to the Mediterranean coast benefit from a warm climate for more than 300 days a year, making this an ideal location for out-of-season walking.

Abbie | Traveled in February
This was my first experience with Explore as a solo traveller. I throughly enjoyed this trip and although there was a lot in the itinerary, everything we did was at a good pace. Our tour leader Einar was incredible! His knowledge and passion about Iceland was incredible. It’s not always guaranteed that you will see the Northern Lights but we were incredibly lucky to see them when we stayed at Hotel Gulfoss which is a great location as there is no light pollution. Iceland is expensive but I would say it’s totally worth it. This is a holiday that will stay with me and felt it was a real adventure. I absolutely loved it.
Elizabeth S. | Traveled in February
The trip to the Northern Lights was fabulous. The accommodations of the cabin and the glass igloo were great. The food was only ok. My fav memorable experience was riding/driving the dog sled.

My husband and I had the most amazing honeymoon on the Simply Italy Contiki tour. Our guide and driver were amazing! With it being off-peak season in January we had a smaller group size and major tourist attractions were much quieter. This tour had a full itinerary and was a beautiful way to discover all of Italy. I recommend adding the “Free-Time Add Ons”. These were reasonable in price, and provided us with opportunities to do unique activities. Even though it was our honeymoon, we made so many friends and enjoyed hanging out with the entire group. We are so excited to book another Contiki tour in the near future!
Gabriella Se | Traveled in February
I had an absolute amazing time all the group members were lovely and it was so nice to have the opportunity to meet new people. Both Tomasz the bus driver and Nicole the tour leader were amazing and made sure we got to each location safely. Nicole had so much knowledge and was able to guide us in were to visit or help us with any questions. I would definitely recommend doing a top deck tour
Rachel E. | Traveled in February
We loved the itinerary, Tour Manager, Bus Driver and sights. What a fun trip! Knowing the goal was to see the Northern Lights, we went in January which was cold and dark. We were able to see the lights three different nights and made the most of the limited daylight hours. The waterfalls and glaciers were neat. Loved the Blue Lagoon!

Avoid the hustle and bustle of Western Europe and take a trip to Central Europe (Imperial Europe). Avoid the crowd during winter and experience a different vibe and atmosphere.
