    Tour Details
    • ContikiOperator•Written February 2023

      Unfortunately, we cannot allow this traveller on this trip as we are strict with our 18-35 year old policy. If the traveller has done trip with us in the past before they turned 35, they are welcome to join one of our Reunion trips which are for travellers aged 35-45. However, they cannot join those trips if they are not a returning Contiki traveller. Otherwise, the other brands under the TTC umbrella may be suitable for them as they are open-aged.
