- CPChelsea· September 13th, 2024I was fortunate enough to have Courtney as my trip manager for the European Quest trip starting 31-05-2024. This was my first time as a solo traveller and I was nervous& anxious to say the very least. The way Courts made me feel safe in another continent that wasn’t where I call home is something I will remember forever. I remember I thought I’d left my passport in Paris, Courtney was all over it straight away while I was panicking and crying, she remained professional, reassuring and so helpful. Turns out my passport was in my bag the whole time (oops). Courts took not only me but everyone under her wing and had our best interest at heart. She cared for us as strangers like I’d never imagine. She was full of knowledge and had a response to every question asked. By the end of the trip, courts made me feel like I’d never left home. We had a very welcoming, inclusive and supportive group, I gained many life long friendships not only with the travellers but with our TM. I have thought about my European Quest trip everyday since and feel nothing but love, respect and appreciation that I got to experience this journey and it was as great as it was mostly because of Courtney. She attended hospital for a traveller; she saved me from drowning at the beach, she carried me to taxis when I was intoxicated, she hugged me when I was sad, she laughed with me, she done everything she could to make our trip special and she done a damn good job at it. I even got a tattoo to remind me of the trip- that’s how incredible it was. Courts nick name to me was “my Europe mum” so with that, I didn’t just make a friend I made a sister& a Europe mum. Courtney is the greatest of all time, you can’t convince me otherwise.Show moreContiki commented on this reviewThank you for being our guest and travelling with us.
