I wanted more of Austria, both the travel manager and bus driver were awesome! I think a little less time in Venice as it got a bit boring after 6 hours.

This trip was interesting and well organised with a variety of stops and areas of interest. We listened to stories by Kevin, which were told in an engaging and compassionate way. Wayne, our driver was also very caring and always helped us off the bus! Both Kevin and Wayne were professional and experienced professionals. I just loved seeing the United Kingdom, especially Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Everything was fantastic. Saw so much of Tuscany and everyday was so enjoyable. Tour manager was incredible, bus driver was excellent and the food was delicious. Our hotel in Montecatini was so pleasant. Each village or city had a tour guide assigned and they were all so knowledgeable. This tour was well worth the money.

Absolutely incredible! Italy’s history, food, and charm blew us away. The small group setting was perfect, and everything was tailored for Canadian travelers. Highly recommend!
This was the trip of a lifetime—it opened up the world to me and gave me more confidence to solo travel. I LOVED having the itinerary planned out and all of the logistics handled by our excellent trip manager. It helped me turn my brain off and truly enjoy my vacation. Also was so relaxing to travel between cities by train. We had the perfect balance of planned activities and free time that helped us pack just the right amount of action into each city. I especially loved Free Time Add-Ons like the Moulin Rouge and a bonus cruise on the Seine to see the Eiffel Tower shine (arranged by our trip manager when our plans hit a snag!) Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to explore and connect with others!
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.
Fantastic trip director and bus driver, Karin Reum and Noel. They made the trip a total experience with laughter, merriment, and compassion along our journey. Great itinerary, hotels, staff at the hotels and restaurants were extraordinary, and side excursions were great fun. I worked in the incentive travel industry for 30 years and I have to say this group was the best of the best. They really cared about our well being and always over delivered with little surprises to go above and beyond. The motor coach was awesome too! Exceeded my expectations!!
