    If you cancel your contiki tour you will wait months and months for your refund. I understand during Covid but no such excuse now except for incompetence. Terrible customer service.

    We genuinely regret that you weren't able to travel with us this season on the European Discovery trip. Furthermore, we understand that it may have taken some time for your refund to come through, and we appreciate your patience as we are currently... Show more

    It was expensive and the hotels were not great and the add ons were not worth the money especially the moulin rouge. The tour manager Tayla was not flexible and some of what she said was not factually accurate. Paulo was a good driver.

    Genuinely the absolute best trip! You don't spend too long in any one city, but you pack in as much as possible throughout the entire trip. The trip manager was incredible and I made so many friends on the trip. Can't recommend this one enough
