I want to make sure before I book this that me and my daughter will be the only two in a room. We do not want to bunk with anybody we don't know.

We do have a Twin Room option available for this tour, so you and your daughter will not be sharing the room with anyone else. Please note that Contiki tours are exclusively for travellers aged 18 to 35 years old.

Why is an age range listed? I am 55 and my wife is 50. Are we eligible to book this trip?

Apologies as all our Contiki tours are strictly for travellers ages 18 to 35 years old only. We are unable to accommodate travellers outside of the said age group.

Is there a reverse tour, or some similar tour that starts in Berlin that we could have a look at? Also we will arrive in Berlin on 10th Sept, do you have a later date planned for this tour?

Unfortunately we do not have a reverse option for this tour. We do have a trip called the eastern road that starts in Berlin. But we don't have a departure for the 10th of September, unless you are able to change your dates, same for the tour you have already selected there isn't any other dates.

Is most of the travel by train overnight? We have been looking at tours of Europe and would prefer to have someone do the 'driving' for us overnight, and wake up in a new city every day. If the train travels at night what are the accommodations when traveling by train? Would it be sitting upright in a train seat?

The tickets held are standard train tickets, which means upright seats for the journey (may have a slight recline). The trips would be by daytime, usually in the morning. These are the trains for each trip: London to Paris – Eurostar, Paris to Amsterdam – Thalys, Amsterdam to Berlin – DB Groupes. Public transport is then used within the cities to get around.

This is my second time to join the Contiki. In my first time Contiki trip, I was unhappy with the food of the trip because there are provide some stale food in the restaurant. Although I had already complaint to the managers and they had apologize to us and compensate for the mistake, I was still unhappy about the trip. However, there are one point that I am pleased with it because I can see the improvement of the trip. In the second trip, my wife and me were going to celebrate our first year wedding anniversary so we joint the Contiki and this is my wife’s first time to join. I feel pleased because the food is very delicious and no more stale food and the trip is better than our first time Contiki trip. I am happy that the Contiki had listened the review of their customer. My wife and me was happy in the whole trip. But, there is a some place that is not enough good. I hope the Contiki can be better and we would like to join the trip again.Show more

  Traveler•Written April 2026
  Do you have any tours that are similar to this that don't end at the age of 35? Why exactly do you cut it off at 35?
- ContikiOperator•Written April 2026
  Contiki sets its age range at 18–35 because the brand is designed specifically for younger travelers who are looking for a social, energetic, and party-oriented travel style. The cutoff isn't about excluding people arbitrarily; it's about maintaining a consistent group dynamic that matches the expectations of that age bracket.
