- AAnonymous· May 16th, 2024Rhi is excellent! Very personable but always professional when needed. She is a blast to hang out with, genuinely wanted to get to know us all on tour, and great for a laugh. Touring with Rhi felt like spending time with a friend. On the working and guiding side of things, she was always ready to assist with any question we had. She is really knowledgeable and happy to share. Any time anyone was feeling ill or homesick, she was right on it to help them out. She truely had our backs. Something that really stood out to me was, at the end of each segment of the tour, Rhi summarized the trip we just took by going over the highlights, funny moments, and all of the incredible experiences we had just had in such detail. After a month of travel I do not know how she retained it all and was able to revisit every cherrished and humorous moment like she did. She really made us and our time together feel special. Thanks Rhi! I hope I get the chance to take a trip with Rhi again soon, or that our paths otherwise cross again :)Show moreTrip date: April 2023

What our customers ask about this tour

Daniel
Asked on April 4th, 2024I am really interested in booking this Asia trip (27days) either the 6th or the 13th. I would be flying to Bangkok from the UK Scotland. Do people usually have theie return flight home already booked before the trip? I have never done anything like this before and want to make sure that all my travel is organised before hand so its all paid for etc. Does someone collect me fro the airport on arrival?
ContikiOperator•Written April 2024The distance from the hotel to the nearest airport at Noi Bai International Airport (HAN) is 21.6km. Since the trip is definite, travelers can book their own flights, as departure transfer is not available. On arrival we offer a chargeable transfer from airport to hotel. Contiki tours have an age restriction, and participants are required to be between 18 to 35 years old.

Traveler•Written April 2024I am looking at applying for a visa as I may plan to stay in Asia after the 27 day trip. I have read that you do not require a visa for 30 days or under. Can I ask how I go about applying for a visa to stay in south east Asia for longer. Aprox 40days. If I arrive a day early is it still possible for me to stay in the allocated hotel (obviously at a cost). I want to make sure I am there a day before the trip starts to make sure I get there on time.
- ContikiOperator•Written April 2024
You may apply your visa through this link. We can arrange a pre-hotel accommodation for you, which will be the same hotel as on the first day of your trip. However, to set your expectations, please note that we can't guarantee that you'll be in the same room during the trip and pre-stay, as it depends on the hotel's availability and operates on a first-come, first-served basis.

Asked on December 27th, 2023Is it possible to still join the tour if you can not ride a bicycle or if you can not ride one well. Will someone who has a gluten free diet be catered for on your trip
- ContikiOperator•Written December 2023
You'll miss some activities that require riding a bicycle, you can inform the Tour Manager while on the trip that you are unable to join these activities. There are no special arrangements for a gluten-free diet unless the guest has a gluten allergy. We can put a note on the booking that the guest would like a gluten-free diet.

Asked on April 25th, 2022Would like to know if there are any problems in terms of Covid for this kind of trip in Asia? Is ist possible to visit all countries if you are fully vaccinated or are there quarantine rules?
- ContikiOperator•Written April 2022
As far as we know, a lot of the Asia countries are lifting their travel requirements, the trip is still scheduled to operate. You need to be fully vaccinated in order to join a Contiki trip, if any quarantine were to arise, we would not be operating or would offer alternate destinations.

Asked on January 11th, 2022What are the procedures for moving through each country with different visa and COVID19 restrictions/requirements? Do we book visa's on our own?
- ContikiOperator•Written January 2022
Visas are super important and are essential for entering certain countries. It's up to you to be responsible for obtaining all necessary visas prior to your trip' departure date. We recommend checking with your embassy or consulate for up-to-date visa requirements. Please keep in mind visas can take a while to process and a fee is normally charged. We recommend applying as early as possible to ensure you receive your visa on time.
