I've seen impressive waterfalls and scenery before but this takes it to a whole new level. When you think you've seen it all you turn a corner and get a whole new perspective. You get to see and experience different things everyday. With plenty of free days that you can organise yourself or fill with the optionals you can really bulk out this holiday and make it packed with new experiences which you may have not found by yourself. I've not had a minute spare as always an optional available to fill any free time which is what I chose to do. The Iguazu falls is a must experience! The views on the walk are simply breathtaking then your breath gets taken in a whole new way on the boat ride into the base of the Devil's throat.

This is a excellent introductory tour of South America visiting 2 of the continent's most dynamic cities, (Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires) and one of the world's most incredible natural wonders, the Iguazu Falls. This is not a typical motor coach tour as it travels between locations using domestic airlines. All ground transportation to see the sites within the aforementioned cities and the falls was on large, comfortable coaches using different drivers for each location, all excellent. Everything went without a hitch thanks to our great tour director, Rodrigo. After this tour we want to explore South America more. Highly Recommended.
Borneo with Contiki was honestly one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. Our trip leader was amazing and made everything feel so easy and fun. I met such a great group of people, and seeing orangutans in the wild was something I’ll never forget. Every excursion was packed with adventure I had the best time!
