This was my first Contiki trip and it is going to be the reason why I go on more in the future. Our tour guide was energetic, friendly, and so excited that everyone was there and just made every day an amazing time. Each day of the Active Alps was something new. I got to cross a lot of things off of my bucket list! If I got a chance to go back and do it again, I 100% would. It was the best week of my life.
