Travel Map

Day 1: London

Welcome to the much coveted capital of the United Kingdom. The next few days will be spent slinking through the streets of Soho & purring through boutiques in Shoreditch. This afternoon we’ll get acquainted with the rest of the Contiki folk & hear the finer de...

Day 2: London

Taking to two wheels, we'll explore London's iconic streets by pushbike. In the afternoon, opt for a Craft Beer Tour. By night we could cruise to a moonlight cinema or visit the Magic Roundabout bars in Old Street. Plenty to see, do & of course munch in London's edgy East.

Day 3: London

The city is well & truly yours for the taking today. Your free time could be spent sifting through treasures in the antique stores of Notting Hill, icon hopping from one landmark to another, or why not jump on the London Eye.

Day 4: London to Paris via Dover and Calais

Rising & shining, we’ll grab our last London lattes before making tracks to the elegant rose that is Paris.Departing England and setting sail for the continent- we’ll marvel at the chalky white cliffs of Dover en route to the French capital.We'll arrive in the chi...

Day 5: Paris

Today, we'll be soaring 210-metres above the ground at the Montparnasse Tower, where the incredible views of Paris can be enjoyed from every angle. Save some space at lunch, as this afternoon is all about traditional French indulgence in the form of a Patiesserie tour. After eating our bodyweight in éclairs, brioche & macarons, we'll top our day off with a show at the Moulin Rouge.

Day 6: Paris

Our final day in Paris, so how do we see out the sity in style? A gastonomy tour, of course. Sweet treats and local delicasies polished off, why not carry on the eating theme with a picnic of fromage & vino in Montmatre. Tonight, we laugh until our stomachs hurt with a theatre show that centred around traditional French characters.

Day 7: Paris to Amsterdam via Antwerp

With Paris now taking up a sizable pocket of our hearts, we’ll move upstream in search of the Netherlands unconventional capital.Arriving in Amsterdam we’ll be greeted by all the expected trademarks, & begin scurrying past them to find the soul of the city.

Day 8: Amsterdam

Today we’ll tackle Amsterdam in a most acceptable fashion, grabbing pushbikes & cycling through the city’s picture perfect canals. Although we’re in one of Europe’s most alternative cities, viewing tulip gardens & decedent cheese samplings will not be out of the question.

Day 9: Amsterdam

Today we suggest getting your scream on at the Tower Swing, then easing the jitters with a curtsey to the cocktail skills at House of Bols. The Van Gogh Museum or Albert Cyup Market are also worth a visit.

Day 10: Amsterdam to Berlin

Feeling sufficiently enamoured by the multidimensional city of Amsterdam, we’ll gather up our worldly possessions & hit the road. With a German club hub & culture king on our agenda, you may want to send out a few zzz’s during the journey. With more museums than rainy days per year, Berlin is a place worth knowing about.

Day 11: Berlin

Today we explore the city on our trusty two feet, with a fascinating Berlin Historical Walking Tour. When hunger strikes, the carnivores could spend some time differentiating bockwurst from kinderwurst to fleischwurst. Meanwhile the more vegan inclined could sample a ...

Day 12: Berlin

Explore the city the most efficient way – on two wheels! Berlin has a lot of ground to cover so a locally guided bike tour is hands down the best way to see it all. And, bonus, the bikes are yours to keep all day! Check out Berlin's alternative side tonight with a street art tour topped off with some of the best local cuisine – schnitzels!

Day 13: Berlin

If you’ve got any last minute business to take care of you could drop by Betahaus co-working space, where an enviable collection of city start-ups can be found. If you fancy yourself a bit of a travel blogging kid, you can find your kind at the blog specific co-workin...

We’re firm believers that life’s greatest experiences are made better by the people you share them with. That’s why Contiki invented group travel for young people in 1962 and we’ve spent the past 53 years perfecting it. You’ll explore amazing destinations with a group of 18-35 year olds from around the world who share your passion for adventure, good times and creating memories that define what it is to be young, wild and free.

No two travellers are the same and we know that, which is why we offer eight unique ways to explore the world. We have a number of options to choose from to create a vacation that’s perfect for you, from budget to accommodation style.

We're all about exploring the world with like-minded people, which is why we only run trips for 18-35 year olds, to celebrate being young, spirited and curious. You can expect to join a group of 18-53 awesome people from around the world on our Europe, Australia, North America and New Zealand trips, and in Asia and Latin America it's all about small group adventures with up to 25 travellers. Don't worry if you're not traveling as a couple or with a friend from home – though there are plenty of pairs, 50% of our travellers set off solo, meaning you'll have a ton of opportunities to make new friends.

With over 270 trips around the world and plenty of departure dates to work into your schedule, you'll never be short of options on where to go for your next great adventure.
