Hello! Anybody excited for the 15 June trip or am I going by myself? (Looks like the 16th of June for those outside North America.)

Also, does anybody have ideas for cheap accomadations the couple of days before we depart? Want to split a hotel room?

Hi Ian! I'm thinking of going on this trip also and very excited. Can't give you advice on accommodations though as I will be flying in from the US. GL.

Hey, do you mean the one starting on 16 June 09?? I just booked now (bit last minute)

I'm going on this one....although I haven't booked yet, hoping to do it tomorrow.

Are you both going by yourselves?

Yip, going by myself - also a last minute thing... booked yesterday and paying next week

yeah I'm looking to book and pay on Monday...hopefully

Fairly excited

Well even though the website shows a 14 June start, my bill says 15-25 June. Luckily I already planned to come in early so no matter the day I'll be ready to leave whenever they'll take me.

I will as well be traveling solo so I hope we are all talking about the same trip and us loners can share the experience. 45 days...or maybe 46!?

I've got 51 days left by my count

are you all on facebook? look me up - Kristin Cronje (think I'm the only one)

You are right on the day count. Now I have to wait an entire extra week. I wish you hadn't mentioned it and just let me live the dream of it being closer than it really is.

I'll be on that trip! This is my first Contiki trip AND my first trip to Europe, so I'm pretty stoked! I'll be traveling alone, but that's alright. I hear with all the liquid courage involved on these trips, making friends quickly is pretty easy.

hey, is there another european horizon tour that i don't know about? I thought it started on the 16th of june and you guys are all talking about the 14th and 15th???? very confused

No trips on that day from what I can tell.

Are you looking at July? According to the page with all the departure dates, there isn't one on June 16th.

maybe it's a timezone thing - on the south african website it says 16th (even on the link you posted). oh well, hopefully we are all on the same tour. paying tomorrow so should receive the exact details soon. are you all from the US?

PS... this is also my first contiki and i'm going by myself too!!
