I had the best time on this trip! It was my first Contiki and I wasn't sure how it would go but it was one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had. As a solo traveller, it was a brilliant way to meet people and make really strong connections - would highly recommend! Our trip manager was incredible, and I found the trip to be a really effective way to see a lot of England in a short time.
