Feedback from guests whose tour started in/around San Francisco during May.

Pratik | Traveled in May

5.0 - Excellent

Was very hesitant at first because of the price of trip but was so worth it. If I had booked this by myself it would have been stressful but Contiki and trip manager handle everything for you. The trip manager was amazing and gave us all the useful information we needed for each stop. All the locations were iconic too and all the people on the trip were friendly. Will not forget it.

One member of our tour group, Ramzi, was incredibly rude to members of the group and to our CEO at times. He avoided doing his share of cooking/cleaning, arrived 1.5 hours late to a meeting point after free time meaning we all had to wait, and made several members of the group feel very uncomfortable

Western Explorer

This was an amazing trip. The scenery was outstanding and became unbelievably more so on each successive day. The unexpected snow both in Yosemite and at Grand Canyon added to our excitement rather than dampen our spirits and although we were disappointed not to fly over the Canyon due to weather conditions, it was still a wonderful holiday.

3.0 - Average

Overall the trip was good. However there were some drawbacks. It would have been nice if the trip was more guided. Instead it was more of a do-your-own thing. On top of that, all the add-ons were an extra cost and should be included in the price of the trip. Also same with transportation to airport and hotel. However, overall I had a great time and met some great people.
