Is that strictly enforced? I am 41.

Contiki tours have an age restriction, requiring guests to be between 18-35 years old to participate. As you are outside this age range, you would not be eligible to join the trip.

I'm a 36 years old solo traveler, I was wondering if I could still join this tour, and if so, does the price change since I'm solo?

Contiki tours have an age restriction, requiring guests to be between 18-35 years old to participate. As you are outside this age range, you would not be eligible to join the trip. However, we have several sister brands that offer fantastic travel experiences without age restrictions: Trafalgar, Costsaver, Insight Vacations, Brendan Vacations, Luxury Gold.

I would like to confirm if they can accommodate us in this tour as we're already in our 70s.

My experience of the Ultimate South East Asia Contiki was unforgettable and a large part of this was due to the tour manager Smithy. He shared with us so much about the history and magic of South Eat Asia and went above and beyond everyday to make sure everyone was enjoying their trip. I enjoyed the layout of the trip and although there was not a lot of downtime, al of the sites and activities we did that weren’t interesting or enjoyable. The accommodation and included food options were all at a high standard as well. I did all of the free time add one’s and enjoyed them all.Show more

The trip was amazing. It started out full on, especially visiting Thailand with Songkran celebrations happening. There was a good balance of culture and history along with the fun adventures and partying. The local guides were great and very knowledgeable. Our trip manager Rhi was awesome. She was always helpful with insights on where was good to eat, go out, activities to do in our free time. She did all she could to ensure everyone had a enjoyable trip and that everyone was comfortable. Her years living in Cambodia and Thailand provided her with insight knowledge of the places we visited. She has an awesome personality, very down to earth and easy to talk to.Show more
