Booked to go on this tour. Will be doing New York Explorer before starting this tour. YAY!

I'm 21 from Melbourne and it will be my first Contiki tour, and I'm doing it solo. Scary, but exciting.

Is anyone else doing this tour??

Hi guys! My sister and I are going on the Grand Northern on the 1st May 2009! Before that we're going on the Grand Southern and before than we're stopping over in Hawaii! We can not wait!!

Hi there my name is Brooke I'm from the Gold Coast Queensland and I'm 21. I am going on the Grand Northern tour on the 1st of May and possibly the NY one before it...so excited!!

Hi,

I'm KJ (female) from Sydney. I am looking at doing this tour on 1st May and the NY Explorer before it. However I am 26 and everyone so far seems to be really young eeeek! I would like to do one later in May but seems there are lots of airfare specials on for this time of year. I am also keen to explore LA and San Fran afterwards.

I have been on two contiki tours before - Ultimate European in 2005 and Russia and Scandinavia 2007. I am hoping there might be some older folk who might not be posting on here. Most of my tours have been relatively mixed in the past which is good. I don't want to cramp the young ones' style haha!

Hey KJ,

trust me you are not old.

My mate and I are both 24 & our other mate is 26.

Were abouts in Sydney?

We're doing west coast after the tour. Have you booked your tours yet?

feel free to join the face book group (you'll find the link above)

Take care

Hello guys!!!!!

Am currently trying to get the very last place on the North by North East leg of your tour so fingers crossed I will be partying round the west coast of the US/Canada with you guys! Am 23 (today) and from England!

Is there a pre-departure meeting planned on the night before the tour? We had one of these on the Wild Western that I did last summer!

Peace!
