Liked the entire plan of visiting 5 countries in 17 days. It was well planned and executed, but the highlight was the tour leaders. Would like to give a shout out to Gaby who was really good with her work, she used to keep us engaged during the bus journey and give us all the details of the place we are visiting and what we should be eating / drinking there which was indeed very helpful. Kudos to Europamundo for organising these trips and helping us in exploring different parts of the world. Cheers

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).

The hotels and location was quite good....some optionals did not take off, due to want of numbers. In such case, it would have better if the agency can provide skip the line tickets and the ones interested do it on their own, without guide or transfers.....it was too late for us to purchase the entry to the royal palace in madrid and sagradia familia
