What people love about Europe Tours from Amsterdam
- Europe Jewel
A well planned and executed tour, felt very comfortable. The commentary given by the tour leader and the local tour guides were helpful to understand the countries and their historic value which is unknown by many.
- Europe Explorer
The tour is absolutely fantastic and we are enjoy it very much! We like Jungfrau, Switzerland the most. The coach seat is not so comfort during travel day & some accommodation provided without lift, since it is 18 days & you can imagine how difficult to handle the big and heavy the luggage after tired travel day.
- European Trail (Summer, Start Amsterdam, Classic)
I was super nervous about doing a Contiki trip but Rianna immediately calmed those nerves with her calm and welcoming nature. She created an environment where everyone was able to be themselves and have fun. Rianna was always super organised and provided us with recommendations and ideas of what to do in any free time we had. She made this a trip of a lifetime and I am forever grateful. Her professionalism, knowledge, compassion and bubbly energy can’t be matched. Best tour manager out there!! Book me on all her trips!
