This is an amazing trip to experience a few islands and not feel overly rushed compared to other contiki trips. Our tour guide was absolutely amazing and the accommodations were pretty nice as well. Just know Contiki trips are filled with different kinds of people looking for different things, so don’t be afraid to meet new people whose expectations align with yours.

We had probably our best tour guide ever. Anna Rita was outstanding so well organized, shared vast information with us about the sites we visited as well as the excursions. She made us all feel at home, making Portugal our second home. The food was outstanding and the hotel accommodations were great. If you get a chance to tour with Anna Rita take it.

I had a wonderful experience in Thailand despite the humidity! Each day was a new activity whether it was a temple or talk with a monk or a new food or bathing a rescue elephant or cooking Thai food!

An absolute wonderful experience, from the rich history to the great scenery to the excellent food and wine with the occasional surprise treat thrown in to enhance the experience. Both the tour guide and bus driver were excellent. The be our guest visit to a horse ranch with dinner included was a highlight the we will remember for a long time.

A wonderful time with a great group of people and a tour guide whose passion for her native land was evident from the moment we all met. Our ferry excursion to the Isle of Capri was a trip everyone should experience

This was one of the most memorable and enjoyable vacations I've ever been on. Our tour guide, Harry, was so full of knowledge and facts about his home country of Ireland. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to visit Ireland.
