Is anyone going on European Escapade leaving 5th of August? I'm travelling solo and haven't heard if anyone is going on this trip. If you are drop me a line, would be good to hear from people.

Hey,
Just booked this tour date along with a couple of mates. Now that the 'prefered departures' for August are full I imagine ours will start to fill up.

Very excited!!! Where in Aus you from??? I'm from Melbourne.

Hi, there I just booked my trip leaving the 5th of August 2009. I was told that it is now a confirmed departure date as most of the places have been booked. I am also going solo so would be good to meet a few people on the net before we head off.

I am from Sydney.

Hope to hear from you all soon.

Hey Guys, good to hear some others are coming on this trip! I'm from Brisbane and really excited too. I'll be arriving in London on Monday 3rd. Will probably do some sight seeing on the Tuesday.

Will anyone be there then?

Talk soon.

Hey guys, I've also booked in for this one. I actually fly in on the 28th July, am travelling by myself, 29yo female, from Geelong and can't bloody wait, so excited!! I'll be staying at the Royal National the night before so I don't get lost and miss the bus in the morn.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Chat soon :-)

Hi guys, I'll be staying at the Royal Imperial Hotel around the corner the 2 nights before our trip, so I won't be at the National. If you guys are keen to catch up somewhere central the day before we leave let me know. That way I'd know at least a few people in London!

Let me know if anyone is interested!

Hi Guys, I have just booked in for this trip... I am flying on 30th July and staying in Royal National Hotel on 3rd and 4th before the tour... and also planning to stay in london for around 4 days before leaving back to Melbourne...and planning to book tickets for a soccer game on the 31st weekend if possible. I’m doing it solo as well and would be great to join somebody to go around London…

i'm so excited as well...not a long to go guys....start counting the days...will catch up soon

Guys, I have created a Facebook group 'European Escapade August 5th 2009 - Contiki' you guys are most welcome to join...

Hey Ash (and everyone else),

I'd be keen for that as I'm travelling alone too. I've just joined the facebook group that Suda set up, cheers for that!

You can contact me through email address carleemelville@gmail.com or on facebook.

Carl, you are the first member wondering everyone have facebook...anyway we can still use this forum for communication... I found some cheap tickets with Thai Airways..i am not quite sure which airlines u guys are using and if you have any plans to go around London let me know...I am happy to join...at least I can go with someone I know before I get there...Cheers

Hey All,

I think I've joined the facebook group as well, not 100% sure as I'm not entirely sure how to use it! Everyone can add me as I don't know how to add people.. I know I'm a loser!

I bought a London Pass for Tuesday 4th, so I'll be doing a lot of sightseeing around London on that day! Everyone is more than welcome to come along!!!! I say we meet at the Royal National Hotel (where everyone but me seems to be staying) in the common room of Contiki head quarters? How does that sound? (It's the only place in London I know).

Let me know if anyone is interested!

Talk soon

Ash

Guys, how about Moulin Rouge in Paris ...( http://www.moulinrouge.fr/home-flash-gb.html ) i heard that we have the do the reservation quite early before we leave... Let me know if anybody is in (we can do it online) ... its not a perfect paris visit without going to Moulin Rouge...wht u reckon
