Well its all booked up now according to the Contiki website, so we can be happy that this tour will definitely run.

So who else is out there, if we're already booked up?

Wonder how many ppl on a tour...

Hey guys!
Just in the process of booking this now, so there are still spots available!

I'm 26 from Brisbane and most likely travelling alone. Spending 4 months in the states leading up to this then heading over to europe just in time for this tour!

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Chris

Hi All,
I'm Steph and will be on this tour with my boyfriend, we're both 22 and from Melbourne. I was wondering, what is everyone planning on doing for money/travellers cheques/credit cards? Trying to minimize spending on bank fees :P

Looks like all Aussies so far, any Americans out there?

Also, who is planning day trips out of London on days before/after, I'm looking at one out to stonehenge/windsor castle...

Hi everyone,

I'm Kate from Perth and have just booked to go on this tour as of today. Yay! It's so exciting finally booking it all.

Anyway I'm 20 and from boring old Perth haha. In reply to Ryan's message I definately need people to go on tours around England with after the Contiki. Sounds great. I'm sure we've all got 19 days of discussing anyway.

Can't wait to meet everyone Smiler

Hey!

I'm going to be in London for about 2-3 days after the tour, staying in Royal National, so I'm keen to look at tours too. Like you said Kate, we'll have 19 days to discuss!

I really can't wait for November to come around!

oh this is getting all too exciting.. can't wait.. i'll be there for 3 days after the tour too as well as few days before. So maybe i should leave some touring stuff till after cos sounds like we all be up for it.. :P
Nick i'm wanting to do stonehenge and bath and all that jazz too their are some good day tours around Smiler

With money and things i'm thinking of using the ANZ travel card option.. but whats the deal with travelex is it pretty much just like a money card?

Looks like this tour is gonna be a youngish aussie group.. :P
