    Asked on June 21st, 2023

    Do you have a package that would accommodate four people comfortably no rush, 14 day through Christmas and new years. We have some knowledge of customs and geographical tourist locations. But some help getting around would be helpful.

    • ContikiOperatorWritten June 2023

    Robyn

    Asked on December 22nd, 2022

    I am 54 years old. Does that disqualify me from taking part in this trip?

    Age Range
    • ContikiOperatorWritten December 2022

      We are unable to confirm your booking request at this time. To travel with Cointiki, you must be between the ages of 18-35. We do have many other sister companies which have similar itineraries. I would first suggest checking out Costsaver or Trafalger first!
