Jasmine· May 5th, 2018Had the best time of my life and would book another contiki trip again in a heartbeatShow moreTrip date: April 2018- EEmily· April 14th, 2016Most amazing trip of my life! So much adventure!Show moreTrip date: January 2016
- CSChantell· April 12th, 2016This trip was the best thing I could have ever done! I'm so glad that I decided to travel with contiki and start in Darwin. I had no idea what to expect with the first half of the tour but can honestly say it exceeded all expectations. Australia, like Canada has such a large and varying past it was nice to see both sides of this amazing country. The second half, starting in Cairns, was full of action, excitement and wonder and am now very sad to have come to the end. Usually on tours I get sick of the pace and people and just want the trip to end as to not spoil the rest of the trip but this time it feels like even with 25 days and being ill I would gladly continue with contiki and the walk about if they'd have me! I have seen and done more then I have ever thought possible and have learned so much more about myself and opened myself back up to the world then I can scarcely believe. It is not only well worth the time investment but also the financial investment and I'd do it all over in a heartbeat. #noregrets really does exist!Show moreTrip date: March 2016
- CVCraig· April 10th, 2016It was an amazing experience, far above what I could have imagined. To get to visit so many places and have the opportunity to take part in so many activities is something I won't forget. The tour manager helps make you feel at ease by being so approachable. Now the end of the trip has come I would call him a friend, not the guy who ran it.Show moreTrip date: March 2016

- SJSilvan· April 2nd, 2016It was absolutely amazing! We had the best tour "managers" (Trys and Paddy) and drivers (Benny and Gaz) I've ever had in my whole time of travelling. They are the funniest, nicest and most helpful guys I've met. Also the most accommodations were good and free of animals (gecko's, spiders ....) :D If it would be possible for me I would do this tour again!Show moreTrip date: October 2014
