    Unimaginable is the only word that really comes to mind when endeavouring to sum up my trip; it was simply that good, that I struggle to describe it. My week with Ri, Angel and the contiki gang has been without a doubt the best week of my life. Rianna is an incredible person and the best trip manager I could have hoped for. She is the reason the trip was as good as it was, turning a fun week away into the best week of my life. Ri is one of the most bubbly, fun, and upbeat people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. She seems to just radiate happiness I really wish she could teach me how. She's somehow also really funny, caring, and empathetic. It would be easier to just google a list of the best traits a person could have and Ri would have all of them. It is abundantly clear that she loves her job and just wants to make people happy, she does both flawlessly. I could not recommend her any higher, I only knew her a week and I miss her and the friends she helped me make. Ri brings out the best in people and she's made me want to do the same.

    Ri was an amazing trip manager! She made sure we were all safe, gave us tips on what on to do when we had free time and helped us out when we needed!! She put so much effort into the maps of each city, the day sheets with recommendations on what to do and helped us immerse ourselves into the local culture in both our free time and during the add-ons. Ri also kept us entertained on the bus with her music and the games that helped us get to know each other. I would 100% come back on contiki if Ro was my trip manager!!

    I had so much fun on my trip. Rianna was such an amazing tour guide. She was so organised and informative, and the trip ran so smoothly. She was also super funny, nice and lovely. We felt so comfortable with her guiding us, and had an amazing time with Riri !

    Ri was the best tour guide we ever could have asked for, she brought us out of our shells. She knew all kinds of great spots that weren't on the itinerary. It felt like travelling with a local all over the world!!! I simply couldn't have asked for a better guide

    This trip was great overall. The tour guide was kind and knowledgeable. She wanted us to have a good time and be safe. All of the stops were amazing and most of the add ons were worth while. The guide gave us great recommendations for what to see and do in our free time as well

    This tour is actually the first third of the eastern trail (I think it's called). This means you're part of a much larger group, which gives you plenty of opportunities to make friends and makes leaving the group in Vienna that much harder. Accommodation is in large hostels in the cities' suburbs. Gets steadily better - Amsterdam left me with bed bug bites, but the Vienna hostel was a lot nicer. Tour guide, Nate, was awesome and did his best to connect with everyone. Breakfast was free with decent buffets. Lunches were left to us and the optional dinners were usually four course meals.

    Hi everyone! I went on a trip in Europe (eastern rocker) a few weeks ago. Everything has been great from travelling by coach, which I love, to visiting new cities, nights out, meeting new people. I miss it so much already, you really feel like you're having the time of your life. My guide was Anne - Elyse and I've got nothing but good things to say about her. Very knowledgeable and professional but at the same time super fun. We had some good time together. She also will always be there for you, anything you need.
