is anyone else booked for this tour?

42 days. I cant wait!

Hi there my name is Elissa i am going on the European Encounter which starts on the 20th of December and ends on the 4th of January - cant wait to see you if this is the tour you are going on!

Elissa! I'm so excited to finally have a reply! i was getting nervous about the tour being empty!!!

im assuming because the departure date is less than 45 days away that the trip is a sure on!

where are you from? are you traveling alone?

it will be my boyfriend and i on the tour. we're in our 20s.

cant wait! 35 days!!

Hi Snazzymelody, its great to know that I am not going to be the only one on this trip.
Im 22 and from Tasmania, Australia and am going all by myself (am little scared but more excited!)
Cant wait 31 days to go!

elissa, are you on facebook?
what are you packing in terms of jackets? im so afraid of the cold weather. we're from Texas so its almost NEVER cold here!

have you recieved word on when we get our travel documents from contiki? like the itenarary. i hope to get it next week!

Hi there

Unfortunately I am not on facebook.

I am packing a few polar fleece jackets a very warm down ski type jacket and a long coat. As well as some thermals. Just remember the layering technique layers of clothes and when you get too hot you can take a layer or two off!

Where i live it goes from being quite warm to almost snow temperature in the space of a few hours so am a little more prepared for the cold.

I have not recieved any travel documents yet but was told that I would have them about 2 weeks before the tour. I cant wait to get them because it will mean that it wont be long till the tour.

Hope this helps :-)

i got my travel documents! i'm really excited. i read the reviews on the hotels and a few of them kind of make me nervous because of unfriendly staff and bed bugs!!!! ahhhhhh.

i'm sure it'll be fine. cant wait!!
