This Blue-Roads tour was everything, and more, than I expected. The guide combined just the right amount of information with being personable and approachable. The itinerary was perfect: the more I saw and experienced, the more I fell in love with Malta. The group size (of just 14) was also perfect: we all got to know each other quickly and were soon one big happy family. Also, it meant no lengthy waiting around for toilet stops etc. because of the smallness of the group. Accommodation was first class, as were the included meals. I have done 5 Blue-Roads tours and so far, this was the very best one.

Loved the whole experience- visited all the best countries in Europe, tasted wines, spirits and other European alcohol In cheapest prices. It’s not suitable for asians with dark skin and if you’re over 34 yrs old unless you have a thick skin to not give any reaction to the comments some people make as a joke- only because they are white and still young. Not sure what they are so proud about in those moments. Other than that I enjoyed my time with rest of them. The price was on discount- I had to add on some extra adventures which worth it. Honestly 24 days is finished so quickly. Recommend to all the people who like explore Europe more in less time in cheaper price. Great work contiki, I am on my second one now- in Thailand, this group of approx 30 people is much better than European escapades (just my personal experience).

This tour will take you on a memorable train ride across the major touristic cities of Italy. You’ll begin by exploring Rome, with stunning feats of civilization, modern and age-old alike. Colosseum, Navona Square, Pantheon, Spain Square, and Trevi Fountain are a few places that you can visit. The next place where you’ll take a train would be Florence. History, art, countryside, and delicious food are the gist of what this capital city of Tuscany has in store for you. Accademia and Uffizi Galleries are a must-visit. After Florence, The City of Water, Venice, awaits your arrival. Though the journey to Venice via rail is gorgeous, the city itself has its charm.

In addition, take a walking tour covering St Mark’s Square, Doge's Palace, Bell Tower, etc. Finally, we are at the last city of this train tour—Milan. An epitome of great fashion and design, Milan is a heart stealer. Apart from the latest cultural trends, you can even get a slice of history by visiting the Milan Cathedral.
