Hi my name is Emily, I am from south australia and travelling by myself at this stage on my first contiki tour and first trip overseas.... I am really excitied and was just wondering if anyone has any good and helpful tips about the Grand Explorer in New Zealand and if there was anyone who was looking at doing this tour as well... I am looking to meet heaps of new people and have a chat to the people on the same tour as me before we leave.....

Thanks

Emily

Hiya Jess,

I am actually now doing the tour leaving on the 20th of January 07 not the 24th...
sorry for the confussion.

Emily

Hi Emily and Jess,
I'm from Adelaide and I'm travelling alone as well. It looks like I'll be joining the Jan 24 Grand Explorer tour from Wellington on the "Jan 31" Northern Highlights tour, i'm not sure if that means I'll be on the same bus? This is my first Contiki tour and I can't wait! Might speak to you before we leave, not long now
