Loved the organization of our Scotland trip! Steven, our guide, was excellent! Some of my favorite trips were Bosnia and Beyond and Baltics in Winter (older version). Great communication with the US office in planning.

Had two goats ( and ) that made my contiki the best experience possible. The driving and greetings every morning were absolutely phenomenal and the guide yapped so much I gained knowledge of each and every single city:). Which I am super grateful for, I can now offer history lessons to anyone. Nah but seriously an absolute legend who made travelling Europe the ultimate dream. Radiated good vibes every second of the day which allowed me to feel completely safe in countries I’ve never been to. Not a second went by where I felt like my needs, welfare and happiness were not met. They both truly made this experience enjoyable and stress free so big thanks to them. Having had them as my on road team I know I’ll be back on more contiki’s in the future. Forever wishing them the best as well as in his next race.

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.

It was a wonderful way to get a taste of four European cities: Amsterdam, Heidelberg, Lucern and Paris. our guide and our driver did a great job whisking us through the cities safely and enjoyably in about a week. We saw alot. I plan to visit each place again!
My Driver and manager were incredible! Very professional, well organised, but most importantly, FUN!
A good amount of people to mix with but enough to feel like a family.

We saw so much of Europe and it was wonderful. A couple of more days in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria would have added so much. My wife and I still enjoyed this trip enormously.
