I did the Total Thailand with Rhi and she is honestly one of the coolest chicks I've ever met! Super down to earth, easy going, super professional and knowledgeable, always sorted things out and not to mention one of the FUNNIEST people ever! She wasn't just our tour manager but she became close friends with the whole group and always made time to speak with everyone on tour. I would absolutely recommend Rhi to anyone, miss her already!Show more

Avoid if your wanting a travel experience and not a drinking holiday!! Not alot included apart from your hotels and transfers. If you don’t pay for the free time ad ons, everyday is a free day! Most nights are out in the clubs/bars drinking. The accommodation in Phi Phi was dirty and uncomfortable. Tour guide, Augus, was amazing and really helpful but the rest of the trip not really up to scratch.Show more

While we're pleased to read that you enjoyed travelling in the company of your dedicated Trip Manager, it does concern us to learn that there were certain aspects of your trip that you felt could have been improved upon. We understand that you would have liked to have had more Included Experiences, we've actually found that most of our travellers prefer to have the option of doing their own thing on any given day, and this is why we have all of our Free Time Add-Ons. Furthermore, our detailed itineraries, including the Free Time Add-Ons and pricing, are available on the Contiki website and in our brochure, so that any prospective travellers can familiarise themselves before deciding to try a Contiki trip. On another note, It saddens us to read that you felt that too many of the activities included in this trip did not highlight the culture of this region, as we try to curate itineraries that will appeal to the interests of our travellers whose ages range anywhere between eighteen and thirty-five. Nevertheless, we appreciate your comments, as these help us to continue providing the fulfilling and exciting trips that we have always been known for. As such, your feedback has been shared with our Product Development Department for their consideration going forward.

  Looks like a great trip unfortunately I'm 52 I guess I can't join. i'm doing a trip with true travels that takes me down to Phuket. It's a younger age group as well but I find that more fun than going out with a bunch of people with gray hair that want to be in bed at 8 o'clock at night lol.
- ContikiOperator•Written January 2024
  Yes, I understand your situation, perhaps if you are still interested joining in our open age brand, we have a trip that is going to Phuket which is in Trafalgar.
