I wanted more of Austria, both the travel manager and bus driver were awesome! I think a little less time in Venice as it got a bit boring after 6 hours.

Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled.
(Even when we got lost)
The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative.
Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities.
Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.
Paris: Take a dreamy jaunt around the city of romance. Fall in love with landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Louvre, Champs-Élysées and Notre-Dame Cathedral.
Bordeaux: Stroll around this chic metropolis to see the Palais de la Bourse and downtown Bordeaux. Then make time for a nice glass of red by the river.
Barcelona: Combat boots at the ready, folks! Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter and Las Ramblas are so cool, you won’t know what to photograph first!
French Riviera: Glide through the winding coastal roads of the French Riviera with your Contiki crew.
Monaco City: Walk in the footsteps of Grace Kelly at the Royal Palace and see the Monte Carlo Casino (where the car park looks like a Fast & Furious set).
Nice: Your chance to learn the art of fragrance at a French perfume house. You know it makes scents! (soz).
Cinque Terre National Park: We’ll take care of your rail pass, so you can just zip around the iconic clifftop villages and focus on the Insta stories. Wanna hike around too? You're welcome to explore on foot along the way.
Pisa: Your ultimate chance to ‘hold the tower up’ as you pose for that classic Insta snap.
Amalfi Coast: Definitely one for the bucket list. Your chance to view one of Europe’s active volcanoes from a distance.
Rome: Stroll around the Italian capital, ticking off some sights on your bucket list!
Verona: This is the address behind the legendary love story. Visit Juliet’s House and see the spot that turned Verona into a global icon.
Venice: Speed across the lagoon to the aqueous island of Venice.
Salzburg: Marvel at one of Europe's largest medieval castles, perched high on the hill over Salzburg. Like something out of the Sound of Music.
Prague: Charles Bridge. Wenceslas Square. Old Town Square. The Astronomical Clock. See them all IRL in this whimsical city.
Prague: Walk through the winding cobbled streets and head up into the fairytale-like Castle District for panoramic city views.
Dresden: See the Baroque architecture that was rebuilt after the WWII bombings. Royal Residence, Zwinger Palace, Opera House and Frauenkirche.
Berlin: Heads up culture vultures. Here’s your chance to check out the longest open-air gallery in the world.
Berlin: Get your culture on. It’s time to see Tiergarten, Alexanderplatz, the Russian War Memorial, Brandenburg Gate and the historic Reichstag building.

Itinerary
Stretch your European adventure across nearly a month with the "European Quest," a 25-day city sightseeing trip created for young adults eager for an all-encompassing continental experience. From the sunny shores of San Sebastian to cultured nights in Prague and pizza-filled days in Italy, this guided group tour delivers a heady mix of coastlines, cities, and unforgettable nightlife. The standout feature is the perfect balance between extended stays in world-class cities and the freedom to immerse yourself fully in everything Europe has to offer.
day 1London to Paris
Welcome to the first day of the best holiday of your life! After a few pleasantries in London we'll get the show on the road with Paris in our sights. A few hours in and your jaws are on the floor already. These chalk cliffs that edge the English coastline are known as the White Cliffs of Dover, the first of many natural beauties we'll see on this trip. After we ferry across the English Channel for France we'll arrive in Calais, where we will take in the history of World War I battlefields in the Valley of the Somme. Kicking off night one, we arrive in none other than the lust-worthy Paris! It's straight down to business with a tour of the city lit up by the lights of night.

4.0 | Very Good
Overall it was a great trip, and the tour guide and bus driver were both fantastic and the activities were mostly pretty good. Something i think that could be improved on is more free time in cities. I feel towards the end of the trip there wasn't enough time to explore some cities and that it was quite rushed.
