You wont need heels unless you want them, you can get into clubs and evryhwere else in jandals, nobodies going to look at your feet, its actually easier with jandals because theres cobblestoned paths

you will need atleast one warm jersey, pants and covered shoes specially going into switzerland, i made that mistake but luky i bought a contiki hoodie and didnt freeze to death in the snow

Its easier to take a pack than a suitcase as there are going to be ALOT of stairs, a suitcase with wheels that can also be carried would be best

take atleast one very brightly coloured outfit

you WILL NEED hand sanitiser as some rest stops dont contain soap! and either a good book or portable game player or something for the very long hours on the bus, and a pillow, its painful to sleep on the window.

If going to egypt, dont drink or even brush your teeth with the water, YOU WILL GET SICK, and im talking vomiting and diarreah its not nice when your stuck on a bus all day.

ANY QUESTIONS JUST ASK, IM HAPPY TO HELP!!

thanks for the hints! is it worth spending money and getting a thick, waterproof jacket?

Hey Everyone, im leaving to do a ultimate european in two days, ive packed my case although i was silly and bort full bottles of shampoo/conditioner/sunscream etc, bringing all my first aidy stuff over aswell which is definately heavy, so by the end of the trip i will just throw all left over stuff away or what not. although right now my case is 23kilos, emirites now allows 30kilos suitcase and 7kilos hand luggage, so i believe after buying stuff in europe i will be fine to come back as its 30kilos, i would have emptied my case of all left over bottles etc, plus i get 7 kilos hand luggage. although my question is do contiki weigh ur case everyday b4 departure or is it just the first day, as if it is just on the first day ill pull a few kilos out n use it on the bus as hand luggage!!?? any one know?? help help x

hey emma, umm depends what month your going in, i went in july to september so i didnt need a rtain jacket at all, i dnt think youll need one unless its going to be cold? and if you do you can buy one over there, there will be shopping everyday

hi ash, they do weigh your suitcase at the start before you get on the bus i think its 25kgs but they dont weigh it ever again. if you do get too heavy you can send a box of stuff back when you get to amsterdam, theres a post office across the road from the hotel, my frend and i sent back a 20kg box full of liquor clothes and all sorts and it cost us 100 euro and it takes about 3 monthd to get back, (we took the cheaper option) and it was perfect nothing was broken or anything.

Great, thanks heaps for the advise, definately lifted weight of my shoulders from stressing! i fly out tonight ahhh, sure it'll be great, thanks again all xo
