Highlights

Amsterdam: Best way to break the ice? By breaking bread of course. You and your new besties can bond over dinner before heading out to explore.

Sankt Goar: Take a scenic glide down the river, past fairytale castles, Baroque spires and timbered German houses.

Sankt Goar: Visit a local stein store and learn how the famous German steins are crafted, and as a bonus we will show you the worlds largest free hanging Cuckoo-clock!

Dinkelsbühl: Seatbelts on! Today we're driving along 'Romantische Straße' AKA Germany's most scenic route, winding through picturesque medieval towns, fairy-tale castles, and breathtaking landscapes.

Munich: We'll make a stop at a traditional Bavarian ‘Bier Halle’. Grab your Contiki crew and a beer. Prost!

It was amazing. and were the best possible tour guides to take us around Europe. Every moment was packed full of excitement and adventure, and I would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat. I loved it and will always cherish the memories and friends I made on the trip.

The trip was so much fun! Everyone became like family after our first night out together! Our tour guide was the best!!

Lucy M.On Sep 1, 2025

This is the best trip you will ever book!! You get a little taste of so many places around Europe to decide where you want to come back to later on. All the different people you meet and become friends with is a once in a lifetime experience and you won’t find that anywhere else so Contiki is 100% the way to do it. Our driver and trip manager was also such a great highlight of our trip as they were so knowledgeable and added to the vibe of the trip to make it so special!! I DEFINITELY recommend booking…cause when in Rome!!!

I liked the fast pace and variety of activities we did and places we saw within the time frame. I made great friends and our trip manager and driver were the absolute best.

Ruby B.On Aug 27, 2025

The trip was amazing, we saw and did so much in such a small amount of time. Our contiki manager Bushby and our driver David made the whole group feel like such a family. We could never have seen and did so much in such small amount of time had we done it on our own, and we were able to go to places that we probably would not be able to find on our own. I will definitely be recommending contiki to others in the future!!

Very fast paced and only a few hours in the “one night” towns. Sometimes checking in between 4pm-10pm and not having much explore time at all.

I really enjoyed the trip as a whole. From the trip manager to the activities, it was all around a really great time.

Amazing trip!!! Truly an amazing experience and I encourage everyone to do at least one Contiki in their life :)

My trip was truly unforgettable in the most incredible ways. and went above and beyond to make the tour run as smoothly as possible and comfortable for everyone. I loved every second of my Contiki experience and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking some adventure.

Best thong I have ever done formyself

AnonymousOn Jul 27, 2025

Met some great people and really enjoyed being able to just sit back, relax, and have everything planned out. It’s a great option if you want to see a lot of places in a short amount of time. (keep in mind you only get a couple hours to see some cities and most of the day is spent travelling). That said, the accommodation wasn’t great. The place we stayed at in Florence had bed bugs and was pretty dirty. For the price of the tour, we definitely expected better. Also, the tipping process felt a bit off. They ask for tips at the end and even suggest a minimum amount per day, which didn’t feel fair—especially since most of us on Contiki are young and traveling on a tight budget. Maybe Contiki should just pay their staff better so they don’t have to rely on minimum tips from travelers 😊

Contiki was incredible! and our incredible driver made the experience unforgettable. We had so many amazing experiences I don’t think my brain can process. The only downside was the accommodation. Most accommodation was either very far away costing a lot in taxis and Ubers or some were very dirty unfortunately resulting in bed bugs and moldy showers. made us feel so safe and welcome and loved and he will always hold the biggest place in my heart.

everything was perfect with this trip! accomodation, travel locations, events everything was planned so well. my trip planner and driver were amazing too! things wouldn’t of gone so smoothly without them. all the friends we made along the way are amazing too, it was so fun meeting so many new people!

AnonymousOn Jul 26, 2025

The trip was good, though it did feel a bit rushed. The hotels were also too far out of the way from the cities we were staying in. Some also had black mould throughout the rooms, some had bedbugs and some bathrooms were full of limescale and mould.

Mojalefa M.On Jul 23, 2025

I think the trip went absolutely amazing, my tour guide did a great job, my bus driver always made me feel safe and comfortable, the only thing I would recommend is spending one extra day in each place!

AnonymousOn Jul 23, 2025

Brilliant amazing trip. Recommend less time in Germany and more nights in Italy. Also better to have hotels close to city centre as makes travelling home less expensive and easier. Really enjoyed it and very well done

The trip was amazing, very cool seeing how the other side of the world lives. All the extra activities were awesome. And our guide and our driver worked so well together to make our holiday experience perfect!

AmandaOn Jul 10, 2025

This is a great trip to take to discover places on a time crunch. We went through 8 countries in the span of 2 weeks. It was great meeting people from all over the world & having a set itinerary for each city we stayed in. Most of the places we stayed were really nice. Given that this was during a European heatwave, I understand the circumstances with AC! One thing that I didn’t like was being given the itinerary the day of the city we arrived in however, we understood traffic causes issues but it was tailored to our trip so can’t complain! The trip manager was great! He was a good time and so Informative. He set expectations and we all followed them. The driver was amazing as well

To sum up the trip it couldn’t have been more perfect. Ticked off lots of countries and had amazing experiences. Memories and new friends that will be cherished forever.

Our tour guide and driver made this trip an amazing experience! We had a lot of opportunities to do our own thing while in each city. We were also given plenty of add on experiences that really made this trip a unique experience. It was wonderful meeting other travellers and building great connections. As well, it was wonderful not having to worry about accommodations, meals, or experiences in unfamiliar cities. This was a wonderful trip where I felt very taken care of and safe.
