well looks like i might feel a bit old on this tour at 26 . he he . hello all anyway. my names kate and im from perth australia. living in the uk at the moment. is there anyone going to london for sight seeing after the contiki. or staying at the basement .?

Hi Kate, I'm going on the same tour with a girlfriend...it's all rather exciting. and 26 isn't old, it's just experienced! I'm 22 and my friend renae who's coming is 26 and we're from NSW. we'll be staying in london for a few days at least after contiki and probably doing a tour up to bath and stonehenge and then spending a day sightseeing in london itself. look forward to seeing you there!!

Hi, my name is Sakura, 26yo female from Melbourne goin on the same tour.. Cant wait, this will be my first trip by myself and really looking forward to gettin out of my comfort zone,and meeting new people and discovering new places.

don't worry about age most tours have heaps of different age groups.

Hey guys, this is angela, getting pretty excited bout the tour now, its abit freaking close, so much to organise, but cant wait. I think alot of us are staying at the royal national before the tour, i was just gonna suggest maybe meeting up for some beverages on the saturday nite(26th). If anyone thinks this sounds like a plan just let us know!

hi all. how are we. excited im sure. three weeks. yey ! a friend of mine wouldnt come on contiki as she thought it was mainly below 20's . guess she wasnt right about that. look forward to meeting everyone ! im heading into london either the sat or sun . so see you soon.

Hi Everyone, less than 3 weeks to go, getting pretty close.

Some one has suggested a get together on the saturday night, which sounds like a good idea. If someone wants to name time and place, I will see you there. It would be good to meet everyone before the tour starts.

Look forward to meeting everyone.

Hi guys, Angela again.... in reguards to meeting up for some drinks on saturday nite before the tour, maybe 6pm in the lobby of the royal national and then take it from there, does this sound alright? Let us know, its gonna be awesome to meet everyone!

Hey, its Sakura.. Yeh, meet at the lobby sat. nite (6pm) for drinks sounds great..it'll give us a chance to say hi and talk about our excitement and anticipation..cant wait, 1 and half weeks to go..

Hi everyone, 6pm Royal National lobby Sounds good. Look forward to seeing and meeting everyone.

Hay guys, this is Alyssa. Im on this tour too. Im 19 and from NZ and going solo. I cant wait..(Although im a bit nervous ah.) Only 10Days to go until I fly out! I arrive the 25th Aug to do a bit of sightseeing of London before. Id love to join you guys 6pm on the Sat night before the tour if thats kewl. Looking forward to meeting you guys!

HI Guys, not long to go.
Just a thought, has anyone got a suggestion to how we are all going to recognise each other. Otherwise we could be wandering aimlesly for who knows how long.
If anyone has an idea let us know, otherwise I will see you all there Aug 26th.
