Is there a lot of walking for this tour. My husband has a little bit knee problem.

Please be advised that this is a very active tour, in fact all Contiki tours are active. Contiki brand is specifically tailored for the 18 to 35-year-old age group to ensure a fantastic experience for everyone. If you and your husband are outside the age bracket mentioned, we highly suggest checking out Contiki's open-age sister brands, such as Trafalgar Tours, Costsaver, Insight Vacations, Brendan Vacations, and Luxury Gold. These brands offer a similar tour that you might want to consider.

Is there the pick up from the airport the first day and the drop to the airport the last day?

Apologies as we don't offer transfers from/to the airport for this tour.

I was planning to be in South America early July and was wondering if this trip can be made available on first or second week of July.

July is sold out. Our available dates for this tour this year are 09-Sep-2023 and 02-Dec-2023. Let us know if you would like to proceed with any of these dates.

Could you please provide any information on the nightlife for this tour? do you provide options or drinking get-togethers? Or is it just generally day activities?

There are no free time add on available for the Bolivian Magic. We do not have a nightlife activity as well but as you have a local guide and expert trip manager, they can be a good resource of where to go during the night.

do you have a February tour date? I don't see it offered but my friend and I are hoping to go then during the high season! specifically around the Feb 26-March 3 timeframe.

We currently do not have any dates for February. If it is not available to book it is because the trip is either completely sold out or we are not running the trip during that time.
