    · July 8th, 2019
    A great insight into the world of Eastern Europe. Coach was brand new "minty fresh" green, with usb oorts in every seat for charging phones to keep the "doing it for the gram" happy. Ralph our TM was very knowledgeable about the cities an places to go. We were lucky enough to make good time for Vienna, and made a stop off at Wienner Park.. amusement park. . Oh so good to relax and enjoy the rides... "was being like a kid again". Also, Ralph advised our group that we were going to be in Budapest on a Saturday night, an that one of the Thermal Baths has a Party taking place. .. oh so good .. especially after we completed the River Cruise of the Danube on our very own boat.. 80m in lengh. Our Coach driver Tyson did an amazing job getting us to places .

    Trent was amazing. Couldn't ask for a better tour manager who was able to easily guide us around eastern Europe. The whole trip went smoothly and felt like he had tailored it just for our tastes. He was able to handle our large group and still keep everyone happy and entertained whether it be from walking tours to games planned for our bus days. Thanks for all the great memories.

    Taylor

    Asked on May 10th, 2025

    Is it possible to join the tour on day 3 in Berlin as she is staying with family in Berlin so doesn't need to do the Berlin part of tour? If so what would the cost difference be?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • ContikiOperatorWritten May 2025

      Certainly, your daughter can join the group on the third day of the itinerary. The trip manager will conduct a walkaround and check the bags at approximately 09:00 before departing from the Ibis Berlin Messe Hotel at around 09:15 AM. However, please note that since this is a package trip, the cost for departure on August 31, 2025, remains at AU$4,755.00 for a single room.

    Janice

    Asked on June 22nd, 2024

    Is that a mandatory prerequisite, or is it a suggestion, based on the style of tour, and who it's geared toward? If not mandatory, can you elaborate on what exactly is in the tour that makes it better for that age range?

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • ContikiOperatorWritten June 2024

      All our Contiki tours are strictly only for travellers ages 18 to 35 years old as the tours were tailored to fit for that age group. Regrettably, we are unable to accommodate travellers outside of that age range.

    Can children join the tour?

      Contiki tours are tailored for individuals aged 18 to 35 years old. For families or travelers with children, our sister brands like Trafalgar and Costsaver offer tours that accommodate younger participants.
