This trip was coordinated so amazingly well in terms of activities, excursions and meals. The guide, Chelsea was amazing in communicating with us in regards to transportation or anything we may have needed! I 100% would recommend this tour.
This was a great trip to explore each city. Personally, this felt a bit more independent type travel (exploring the city by yourself or if you made a friend with them) vs other Contikis (more time with the group). Hotels were great and fantastic locations (centrally located near metros and the main train station). Fantastic free time add ons as well.
