Hi guys,
I have just booked my Road to Athens tour for the 10th July 2008 and was wondering whether anyone else is going on this tour?

Yay...how exciting!
Im for Sydney and you?
Will you be in England prior to contiki departure?

Hi Guys,
my boyfriend and i will be on this trip too! i cant wait!
we will be in England for a couple of days before the trip departs. How about you.

Hi Crystal,

My friend and I will arrive in London on the 6th and staying at the Royal National.
Im so excited only 2 more months to go yay!!

Hi Ella!

yeah i cant believe how soon it is! im counting down the days haha! We are staying at the royal national too from the 8th! Where are you from?

Im from Sydney, and you?

Are you guys planning to do any sight seeing in London?
Will you guys be visiting any islands after the tour?

Were from Shepparton, couple of hours from melbourne.

Yeah were doing the london scene package or something with contiki so we get half day tour, free show and stuff. How about you?
We are jumping on the Golden Fleece contiki tour straight after the road to athens ends then after that staying at Mykonos. What are your plans

Cool that sounds great, it will familiarise you guys with London.
My friend and I will be doing our own thing in London. Since the tour ends in Athens, we will catch a ferry straight to Mykonos and stay there for few days. After we will be going our separate ways, visiting family in Germany and Croatia.
Have you guys decided whether to take a back pack or suit case

Hey that sounds awesome! hmm not too sure yet we havent got around to organising that yet. but at the moment im probably leaning towards a suit case although im sure it will get annoying dragging it around all the time.
What have you decided to go with.
Its going to be so hard to pack!

Hey,

We will def. be taking our suit case. I know that It may be annoying dragging them up the hotel stairs but I'm determined to take as much clothes as possible so back pack really wouldn't work for me.
You are right, will be hard to pack because I just want to take everything with me but there is a 20kg limit with contiki

Yeah i know its annoying hey, especially since i want to try and pack light so i can bring home a heap of stuff!
How much winter stuff are you going to bring? im having trouble deciding what i should take just incase i need something other than summer stuff

If you want to do a lot of shopping there, you definitely shouldn't pack too much or you ll have to pack things you can throw out .
For winter clothes I ll just be taking 1 jumper (just in case) probably 2 long sleeve shirts. thats about it. It will be summer time and its pretty warm in southern Europe especially in Greece. So most of my clothes will be dresses, shorts, shirts and about 3 pairs of jeans and a whole heap of shoes hehe.
Dont take to many jumpers, just takes up too much room. May be a few long sleeve shirts.
Are you taking a light jacket with you, just for England. I hear I can be quiet cold there even during summer time ??

Hey, is this the LONDON TO ATHENS TOUR?!?!?

I cant find the forum, im starting in LONDON on the 10th July, and goin spain, monaco, france, italy, athens and then ISLAND HOPPING (seperate)

james

hmm yeah. i was thinking of just taking couple of pairs of jeans and maybe two light jumpers. the rest will be summer stuff. and i guess if it really gets cold i will just have to do some shopping!! have you been to europe before?

Hi James. yep i think thats our trip?? Road to Athens? i dont think we go to spain though on this trip??

Yep, i think I will be doing quiet a bit of shopping there myself. Can't wait. Heard the shopping there is really good.

I used to live in Croatia and Germany and went back in 2004. But havent been to London and Greece yet. So that will be very exciting.
What about you>? have you been before?

Hi James, I think your tour is different. You may need to look it up in the forum section.
