I will kick off with a quick overview of Contiki's history. In 1961, a young New Zealander named John Anderson arrived in London to embark on a journey to Europe. He didn’t want to travel alone and he didn’t have a lot of money, so he came up with a plan. He put a deposit on a minibus and gathered a group of people to travel with. They spent twelve weeks exploring Europe together and had a wonderful time. At the end of the trip, John tried to sell the minibus but no one wanted to buy it. So in the Spring of 1962 he decided to advertise his Europe trip again. This time, he was able to fit two trips into the Summer season, therefore doubling his business, and Contiki Holidays was “born”. The first tours were all booked by 19-29 year olds so right from the start Contiki was all about youth travel.

Contki Tours covers trips to entire Europe, North America, South America, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt and Mexico. It covers a wide variety of styles like cruises, sailing, winter and ski, scuba diving, city tours etc, etc...

The best part of taking a tour with Contiki is if you book the tour in advance you need only pay $200.00 as a  booking fee and they give you ample time to pay the remaining tour fees. Also 70% of each tour party and single girls, so guys hurry and make reservations!!

The other perks of touring with Contki includes things like getting to know the culture of the places you go to better as the tour guides are all well informed and trained about the local culture and lifestyle. Also if you book one tour you get a discount on the second tour. Isn't that awesome? Though the tours cover only the internal flights included in the tour, we can also help you reserve flights from Vancouver to the the tour starting place and book hotels for your overnight stay if required too.


So don't wait till you are old to travel, because trips like these are meant for young people and wont last a lifetime!!!
