Anyone else going on the Simply Italy Tour from September 29 to October 10?  My friend Janet and I are going -- it will be my first time in Europe and I am very excited.  After Italy, we are hoping to spend some time in London.

Hey Angela!

I'm planning to take this tour too!! I'm from Canada... never done a Contiki tour and not really sure what I'm getting myself into. I want to meet people who want to travel though, none of my friends here are interested in going with me. I'm planning to go back to London after the tour and probably find some work there. 

Hope to talk to you soon.

Hi Laurie,

I am from Edmonton.  A number of my friends that have been to Italy say that September/October is a great time to visit -- the weather is much more tolerable and the crowds are thinner.  I think it will be great!!  I hope your trip rescheduling works out -- what a pain.

Hey Laurie,

Glad to hear you got your travel arrangements changed -- look forward to meeting you in September.  I am travelling with my friend Janet and neither of us have practiced any Italian.  Are you spending any extra time in Europe after the tour?  Janet and I are spending 10 days in London and Paris.

Hello Everyone:
I will be joining you on the Simply Italy tour also. This is my second Contiki tour. Last year I went on the Greek Island Cruising tour and we had a blast. Looking forward to a good time and meeting you in Rome. I will be arriving in Rome on 25 September. Anyone else getting in early?
