Trip date: December 2022- EEduardoRamirez· April 23rd, 2019Best tour guide ever!!! Anyone who gets to have Jelly as a tour guide will be very lucky. She’s very fun, attentive and very caring. I really wish I can meet her again in my next contiki.Show moreTrip date: April 2019
- Kelly· April 17th, 2019Shannon made my 10th contiki one to remember. She was great fun to travel with yet organised and professional the whole time and made the tour nothing but enjoyable. I hope to somehow be lucky enough to get Shannon as a TM again one dayShow moreTrip date: January 2019
- LSLeonie· April 16th, 2019Amazing tour, did so many things I wouldn't have done had I not been with contiki. Met life long friends and am so sad to be home!Show moreTrip date: April 2019
- Ryan· April 6th, 2019Great tour to relax on. Itinerary isn’t overly full. Can choose to spend time with your group or do your own thing. Lots of opportunity to party, experience the amazing marine parks and shop.Show moreTrip date: February 2019
- Amelia· October 24th, 2018Really great tour guide and a phenomenal tripShow moreTrip date: January 2018
- Lewis· September 10th, 2018Went on this Contiki Tour and Larrissa is a pretty good tour manager who gave good info about southern Thailand. The hotels were pretty good and the fun things were awesome. Things I should point out is that Thai owned businesses will take good care of you compared to some of the ex-pats businesses that have connections with contiki. The good side I made some good friends on the tour and its one of the best times of my life.Show moreTrip date: June 2016
- GGuyWaller· June 27th, 2018Once in a lifetime tour, loved every minute of it! We went to some amazing places, experienced some incredible activities and stayed in some great accomodation. Wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend the Contiki Thai Island Hopper East, 10/10.Show moreTrip date: June 2015
- JWJustin· July 18th, 2017Shannon is an incredible guide with more passion and energy than anyone else i have ever met. Her primary focus is to ensure that every traveler has an unforgettable experience and she goes to great lengths to ensure that this occurs. My tours with her have been the best times of my life. Tour with shannon and you will not be disappointed. God only knows what "shannigans" she may have in store for you!Show moreTrip date: August 2015
- DMDrew· July 18th, 2017Did a thailand contiki with shannon and it was much better then i could have ever hoped for, great accommodation, amazing sites and she run it perfectly, we had basically no trouble going where we needed to go and were taken to the best places that made the trip extremely enjoyable, would love to get on another contiki with her if i ever get the chance to again!Show moreTrip date: May 2015
