Customer Reviews
- Julian· April 10th, 2025The tour was good I wished we had more time to see Manchester and Londonderry. The itinerary was good but didn’t like the ghost tour extra a lot of people didn’t enjoy the person giving it. The guy giving the ghost tour was not the regular person contiki uses though.Show more
- Bridie· April 8th, 2025The trip crams all the best sights and scenes of Great Britain and Ireland into 18 days with highlights being exploring the streets of Edinburgh and partying the night away in Dublin and Belfast. Jacob gave the trip a special flair with his witty humour, comprehensive knowledge of the history of the areas we travelled to as well as his overall enthusiasm for travel. He made a special effort to connect with each of the travellers individually to ensure their experience was positive. Having an enthusiastic, smiling ball of energy at the front of the coach each morning made the experience that much more enjoyable.Show more
- Julissa· March 13th, 2025Very organized, could have had more included add ons and interactions with the group.Show more

Asked on June 28th, 2024I am 42 and want to do this tour with my 18 year old daughter. If I have already purchased the trip are they not going to allow me on the tour?? How would I be allowed to purchase if I'm not in the age limits??
- ContikiOperator•Written June 2024
We would like to inform you that the Contiki trips are specifically tailored for individuals aged 18 to 35 years old. This age range is chosen to ensure that the activities and experiences during the trip are best suited for a young and dynamic demographic.

Traveler•Written July 2024I took out a loan to pay for this trip and this is the last time my daughter and I will be able to travel together for a long time. I know I am older but I can keep up, I am a nurse who works in the emergency room and and running on my feet all night long working 12 hour shifts. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for us please let us join.
- ContikiOperator•Written July 2024
We appreciate the effort you have put into organising this trip for you and your daughter and regret that we cannot book both of you on this Contiki adventure. Contiki, being a youth operator, strictly enforces a cut-off age of 35 years old, which prevents us from accommodating your request at this time.

Traveler•Written July 2024I don't understand how you can put an age limit on an adventure like this is!! It is both disappointing and disheartening especially after I had told my daughter all about it and now have to break her heart and tell her it isn't happening.
- ContikiOperator•Written July 2024
The age limit on these tours is set as they are a youth group tour. Anyone, over the age limit can not join and there are no exceptions to this.
