Its very good in all arrangements, punctuality, room accommodation, the guides etc. Very professional.
Area of improvement: it will be appreciated if the trips are planned so that the stops in the city is close to facilities for senior citizens to sit down and relax, who are not capable or interested in shopping and strolling time. Having to wait for 3 to 4 hours during this time without getting a place to sit is tiring.
Only negative was not enough time spent in eiffel tower and imperial forum. Sylvia eva and raiid are wonderful tour guide. By the way our son had multiple insect bites in legs..arm and body after we stayed in Pissana Rome hotel. They have old carpet. And The hotel is very far from the center.

Well organized and the trip manager was very knowledgeable and kind. The driver was amazing and kind as well. I felt safe and taken care of the whole trip.
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).
