  Tom was such an incredible trip manager. I was always so engaged in everything he had to say about either historical facts or just day to day recommendations and experiences. He went beyound what you had to do and made some of the best day sheets and power points slides i have ever seen. Tom made sure we made as many incredible and memorable moments, and never failed to get us to have fun!Show more

  Tom was such an amazing trip manager. His recommendations were always great, and the amount of time and effort he put into all the day sheets and my maps was very much appreciated. He was super supportive when we wanted to do something outside of the usual recommendations as well and would always give us tips and help us plan our days when we did do something outside of the way. He was the best trip manager i could’ve asked for!Show more

  This trip was absolutely amazing and one that will stay with me for a lifetime travelling to the UK/EU solo! The Trip Manager, Tom, went above and beyond to ensure everyone was bringing positive vibes, energy and motivation into each and every day. He would provide intel of each place in great detail with such ease and is proven to be a wealth of knowledge. The time and effort considered into each Day Sheet, PowerPoint presentation and Recommendations was very much appreciated! He is a lovely human being and very approachable/ helpful and kind - all the qualities you could possibly want within a Trip Manager!Show more

  It was an unforgettable trip - with many amazing sights, fun people and great food!! The Trip Manager Tom was amazing, friendly and approachable, and went above and beyond in making sure the trip was consistently well-organised and smooth, as well as being a fountain of knowledge and giving us plenty of historical facts about each destination we visited. The Day Sheets and recommendations he gave us were also extremely helpful, allowing us to have the best possible experience exploring each place.Show more

  I had an amazing time on this trip! At first, I was a bit worried about the long drives between countries, but the coach was super comfortable. The itinerary was perfect, we got to see a lot of different places, experience many different cultures and try different foods which was exactly what I was looking forward to! Grayson our tour guide was absolutely fantastic!! He made the trip even more enjoyable, he is super funny, friendly, and very responsible. He went above and beyond to make sure we all felt comfortable and had an amazing time. Pav our driver was super cool as well and did an excellent job! Very good driver, thanks to him we arrived feeling relaxed! They both work very well as a team!! They made the trip truly unforgettable.Show more

  Travelling by myself for the first time half way around the globe was a bit daunting at first, but I was immediately put at ease after meeting Ri and I can't say enough about how amazing she was! From the moment we arrived, she was not just a guide, but an integral part of making the whole experience unforgettable. She had a deep knowledge of every destination we visited, offering fascinating insights into the history and culture of each city. She was always ready to answer questions and share personal anecdotes, making everything feel even more personal and engaging. Whether it was navigating the streets of Paris or finding hidden gems in Rome, she always had the best recommendations for food, sights, and activities. What truly set Ri apart was her attention to detail and their genuine care for the group. I watched her go above and beyond every single day working hard to make sure everyone got the most out of their adventure. She ensured that everyone felt included, and were always looking out for our safety and comfort, which made a huge difference on such an adventurous journey. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, from helping with optional activities to making sure we all stayed connected as a group and everything in between. Thanks to her infectious smile, energy and positivity, our group bonded quickly, and the trip was filled with fun, laughter, and unforgettable memories. I can honestly say that the trip wouldn't have been the same without her. I would highly recommend Contiki to anyone looking for an adventure, and if you’re lucky enough to have Ri, you're in for an incredible experience! Can’t wait to see you next year for a trip to Scandi!Show more
