I have a 10 people going with me on the 25th... Anyone else going?

10 people!? awesome!

My friend and I just booked it today!

Wow a group of 10, thats the way to go! Sadly i'll be travelling solo but hopefully will meet some awesome people on this trip!!

Well I'm pretty awesome so you can hang out with us. hehe Just kidding - I'm not that full of myself. I am excited about it though- March is way too far away.

Have you ever travele with Contiki before? This will be a first for me!

I just booked the trip with my friend the other day. We are going a day early - anyone else going early?

My friend and I are going a day early, and staying a day late- awesome to hear some others are also.

Ha ha i'll be the judge of how awesome you are, just kiddin'!!! I know March is sooo far away, but i'm guna need that long to save for it!! Yeah i've done a couple of Contiki's before and actually before i do the italy one i'm doing a USA one. I've got 5 weeks off work, can't wait!!! Have you been anywhere in Europe before?

Hi everyone,

I just booked this trip along with a friend I met from another Contiki trip this year.

I am postive this will be yet another fantastic holiday and I can't wait to get there.

See you all in Italia!

Adrienne

5 weeks off work? How'd you pull that off? I'll be lucky to be getting 1 1/2 wks for Italy. Where in US are you headed before Italy? I'm also going to need that long to save! I have no clue how I'm paying for it, but I'll figure it out.

In high school, I went to Germany, Austria, and France, haven't been to Europe since. My friend I'm traveling with, has never been to Europe so we're both really excited.

Adrienne- where with contiki did you meet your friend?

I did the Scotland trip this past September, and during the trip I was roomed with another girl from Toronto. We both got along well and we really enjoyed that trip (even though it was only 4 days all told), and well, we both decided to take another plunge and go for the Italy trip!

For sure the next few months will be a savings spree. Oops...never mind the holiday season in between (who really needs gifts anyway?...LOL).

This trip seems like another good one. A nice length paired with some good sites being visited. I can taste the wine already!

5 months to go and counting!

My friend and I just booked the trip last week. We tried to go on the March 10th trip, but that was booked. I'm not upset though. This group will be tons of fun I hope.

Hey

I booked with Adrienne who has already posted some messages up here. Sounds like a good group, we will for sure have a lot of fun.
See you all in Italy!
Katie

Just wanted to mention me and Adrienne are in Italy the day before the tour, if anyone else is?

Also anyone who wants to chat before the tour and have msn add me brmwm@hotmail.com

Hope to hear from you guys soon!
Katie

I think i was a bit surprised myself my boss is letting me have 5 weeks off!

Looks like this trip is filling up nicely, i'm looking like the only aussie so far!

Before Italy i do a short tour USA tour which does Vegas, San Francisco, Bass Lake, santa Barbara and then i've got an extra 6 nights in LA. Anyone can feel free to give me some ideas of what sights etc to see!!

Bring on March already!!!

Everytime I get on this site I get more and more excited- March can't come soon enough!

Katie- My friend and I will also be there the day before. We're staying a day late also- gonna get the most of whatever we can I guess!

Michelle- sounds like you'll have an awesome time out west! I've been to LA and Vegas, both a great time! While you're in LA, try to spend a day in Disneyland - it's so much fun! And if you have any plans to go to the Grand Canyon from Vegas- unless you're doing a helicopter/rafting tour something like that- see if you can rent a car and drive to the west rim instead of the south. It's a lot closer, and a pretty cool drive thru the desert- I can get you directions if you do that. Of course, GC takes away from Vegas party time so picking which is quite the toss-up
