      The age limit for Contiki tours is primarily designed to create a social atmosphere that caters to younger travelers, typically those aged 18 to 35. This helps to ensure that everyone on the tour shares similar interests and travel styles. Regarding physical requirements, many of our tours involve walking, sightseeing, and exploring various destinations, so a moderate level of fitness is generally recommended. We recommend considering our sister brands like Trafalgar, Costsaver, Insight Vacations, and Luxury Gold, which welcome travelers of all ages.
