I'm considering doing this tour and am considering the single supplement. I've never traveled with Contiki before. Not a partier but would like to explore Italy with people in my own age group. Thoughts.

Hi!

I've never travelled with contiki before either, but most of my friends who had been on one before said that it had been fantastic and overall worthwhile! I'm really looking forward to even if I am going by myself. I'm deffs booked in. My travel agent gave me the itenary already and it looks fantastic!

Are you doing the single supplement or room share option?

I've choosen the room share option. It doesn't really bother me too much. Both have benefits I guess. My name is Maree by the way, I'm from Brisbane Australia.

California. I sent you a message earlier this week. I'm planning on doing the Uffizi and Academia on our day in Florence. I've also extended my stay in Rome so I can do Vatican City. Soo excited. See you soon.

Hi, our trip starts on November 21/22. When I get back I'll be sure to try to answer any questions you might have.

Thus far, I've pre-booked entry into the Uffizi and the Accademia in Florence, as well as the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel in Rome.

I have been unable to book tickets to see the Last Supper in Milan. I can't figure out exactly who to call or what website to visit. One tour company told me they (and I think the box office itself) are sold out of Last Supper tickets through November and that my best bet is to try to go the day of but that cancellations are rare. So, if you plan on seeing the Last Supper while you are there, book super early. The itinerary that Contiki emailed to me said to book Last Supper tickets on the day we go from La Spezia to Milan, after 1:30 but before 4.
