Hey there, I'm from Melbourne and will be doing the Simply Italy Tour departing 7th May. This will be my 2nd Contiki Trip. However the first begins 20th April, where i will be doing the European Magic Tour. Is anyone doing any of these tours..? I'm really excited about my trip - as it will be my first time overseas.

Hi,my name is Megan and I am from Tasmania. I am booked in for the Simply Italy starting the 7th May also. Pretty exciting hey! My first time in Europe and my first time travelling alone. Going to be awesome cant wait.

Hi there Megan, so you're travelling solo. Are you doing just the one tour, or are you doing some indepentent travel? I'm travelling with one of my friends from high school and we are doing 2 tours and some of the south of France with another friend who live in London.

Iam only doing the one tour, then I will catch a bus up to Siena where I will stay for a few days, back to Rome for the night then home. I do wish I had longer but 3 weeks was all I could get off work. I have arranged a few local guides to show me around the hillside villages around Siena. Gee I think I will need a holiday to recover from this holiday! Wow the south of france dhould be beautiful! I think thats wheere they filmed that Russel crowe movie A good year cos the director of it lives there. Maybe I do France next year. Better start saving!

Hey all I'll be joining you on that tour. Im Lynley and boyfriend is Nick. We hope not to be to coupley as Im joing a tour to make friends as well as have someone else lug my suitcase for me we'll be Rome a couple days before tour (apartment in Trasevere), and a couple after (the Beehive), then to Malta for a few days.

Hey there Lynley, its nice to chat to someone who will be on the same tour. Where abouts are you from? I'm from Melbourne.
Smart move bringing someone to lug your luggage around. I am having trouble deciding what to bring. I actually get to Europe on the 15th April. I'm doing some independant travel as well as another tour before this one. I can just see that I will bring WAY too much with me.

See you Soon
