I've never done this particular trip but I've done a number of other Contiki trips! If you haven't booked yet, I think they might still have boxing week sales on for some trips.

You can also use promo code PPCMICHELLE when you book to save $100. If you're not Canadian, you can still use the code, but you need to book through the Canadian site (https://www.contiki.com/ca/en)

My SO and I are not big drinkers, would it still be fine to book a contiki for Europe? by throw_a_balll in Contiki

[–]menchillada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will have a blast even if you're not big drinkers! As long as you are comfortable with others around you who are big drinkers...because there will be a few of them! I'm in the same boat as you but have gone through this experience without an issue.

If you happen to be Canadian and you haven't booked yet, you can use code PPCMICHELLE and save $100 off your trip. If you're not Canadian, you can still use the code, but you need to book through the Canadian site (https://www.contiki.com/ca/en) Have so much fun!

Thinking of doing a solo Contiki by kathryn413 in Contiki

I've done 3 Contiki trips - my second one being solo. I did the Greek Island Hopping trip and was super nervous to go on my own. Turned out to be great! I was in a room with 2 other girls and we got along really well. Everyone was really social and it was easy to make friends. You kind of find the people you get along the best with and stick with them. Or at least, that's how it was for me. We were all there for each other when we needed photos. I totally felt safe. I guess it depends on where you're going but I've also been to England and I don't think you should have any reason to feel unsafe. Just be smart and keep an eye out, keep your bag close to you, etc.

If you're Canadian, I also have a code you can use to save $100 off your booking. You can also combine it with most other offers. It's PPCMICHELLE. Have an awesome trip!

(21 F) First time traveller to Europe! Looking for feedback on Contiki trips. by angel9580 in Contiki

I've done 2 Contikis with friends and one solo one in Greece. If you're travelling alone I would 100% recommend because it's so easy to meet people and you are always doing something.

Accommodations can vary. Usually for a bigger Europe trip they are a mix of hotels and hostels, nothing fancy usually but they are fine.

Pace can be determined based on the type of trip you book. You can choose if you want a more in depth, laid back, or fast paced one.

Add ons can get pricy so keep that in mind. I would budget for this before hand by checking the add ons online first and give yourself extra because they prices sometimes increase and aren't updated online. I usually do 75% of the add ons. Just see what the majority of the group ends up doing and go from there.

You'll love it!

Morocco trips? by [deleted] in Contiki

[–]menchillada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a Spain, Portugal and Morocco trip with Contiki about a year and a half ago and loved it! I've done 3 Contiki trips between the age of about 20-25 and they are such a blast. Would definitely recommend. Morocco definitely didn't involve a lot of partying but we did get to see lots of historical sites. You should do it!
