I loved the trip, it was a great way to see a lot of sites in a short amount of time. If I was travelling independently I feel I'd have been much lazier, and people like Sarah were awesome at motivating us to get out and see things rather than lying in bed... Read more

Questions & Answers

Here we have collected and answered the most frequently asked questions about this tour.

Looking at doing a Contiki in Europe next year with a friend. We haven't traveled overseas before and just wanting to know what sort of budget we would need. Quite like the look of the European explorer!
Spending money is such a personal thing so it's quite difficult to say how much you'd need exactly- It really depends on which optional excursions you'd like to participate in, how much drinking and how much shopping you plan on doing.
A good place to start would be to have a look at the trip notes I've attached here, and think about which optional excursions you'd like to participate in.
To get your travel budgeting started on the right foot, we'd also like to offer you 5% off the total price of the tour when making your booking. You can enter this code into the payment section ( RES-bwrCR )
Please note, discount codes are not combinable. If you have any other questions about this amazing tour, please don't hesitate to ask- we're here to help :)
We havent travelled overseas before and just wanted to know how much of a budget will we need?
Due to different peoples spending habits and budgets we can not really advise on how much.

A good place to start would be to have a look at the trip notes or get in contact with us and our customer support team for the amount of any additional charges and for other information.
Can I join the tour in Paris?
Yes it is possible to join this tour in Paris, you will simply meet the group in the late afternoon at the joining point hotel in Paris. The price of the tour will not change, but you will not miss out on any of the Paris activities by selecting to join there. Please indicate at time of booking if you wish to join in Paris or London.
