Contiki recently cancelled the Sept 29 Eastern Discovery tour.

As a result I have lost over $500 on train and plane tickets. Yes I am out of pocket because CONTIKI cancelled a tour. If I get sick and cancel a tour I lose ALL my money. But if CONTIKI dont make enough PROFIT on a tour they cancel it at YOUR expense.

I would warn everyone not to pay any money for a tour (or travel to it) until Contiki confirms that a tour will go ahead.

I would also like to point out that the Contiki sales person told me to pay my money up front because "there are less than 5 places left on the tour".

YET MONTH LATER THEY CANCEL IT....

SHAME ON YOU CONTIKI.
