    This trip was excellent but what really made the trip for me was our amazing trip manager Riana!! Nothing was too much for her and she went above and beyond in every possible way to make sure that each and every traveller had the best experience! She is extremely knowledgeable and seems to have a genuine interest in what she is doing, anybody that gets her as a trim is very lucky!!

    I went with my sister. We had the best time meeting new people from all over the world. Our guide had everyone play games on the bus that would help us all get know one another better. We also would sing music together sometimes. She wanted to always make sure that we were having a good time.

      TravelerWritten July 2025

      I hold a Switzerland Schengen visa ,Is that ok for this travel?

    • ContikiOperatorWritten July 2025

      The tour package already includes accommodation. Should you require additional nights, we can arrange them for you at an added cost, depending on availability. Please be advised that the adventures we offer will not include international airfare, as travellers can join the trip from many different countries. For luggage policy, main should be a single bag with size: 29"x20"x10" (73x50x25cm), weight: 44 lbs. (20kg). For a carry-on/hand luggage, it is restricted to one piece per person, not exceeding 12"x11"x6" (30x28x14cm) to fit under your coach seat or in the small overhead compartment. Holding a Switzerland-issued Schengen visa is generally acceptable for this tour, as long as it's a valid multiple-entry visa and covers the entire duration of your trip.

    • ContikiOperatorWritten May 2025

      Yes, Contiki offers assistance with booking airfare as an additional service, making it easier to coordinate travel dates with your tour itinerary. However, Contiki tours are exclusively designed for travelers aged up to 35. In this case, we recommend exploring our other brands, such as Trafalgar, Insight Vacations, Costsaver or Luxury Gold which offer guided tours suitable for a wider age range.
