I'm going on this tour too! Where are you from? I'm a 25yr Dental Hygienist from Canada. I arrive in Christchurch on the 5th and am staying in Aukland til the 25th.
Going on this tour as well. Not sure when I'm arriving in Christchurch yet, but can't wait. I'm from Denver (US) and I'm meeting a friend of mine from Australia there. Looking forward to meeting both of you!
Hey guys, I am 20 from Essex in England and I work in London as a Legal Secretary - although I am leaving my job at the end of November as after this contiki tour i am going to be spending a year in Australia.
I will be arriving in Christchurch on 7th December in the morning. When the tour ends I am leaving straight after the tour on the 22nd to go over to Sydney.
If anyone would like to meet up on the 7th let me know! I have also booked the pre tour accomodation at the same place our tour starts from.
Unfortunately I'm not on facebook. Not sure exactly when I'll be arriving in Christchurch, but I'd guess a couple of days before the tour begins to get acclimated. I'll be staying at the same hotel, as well. I'm leaving my job prior to the tour as well, couldn't be happier!
Just booked the grand advent reverse start in Christchurch so I think I'm on the same trip as all of you..... So I'm excited to know that people are already booked on the trip. I'm traveling solo & get into Christchurch in the morning of the 7th--- George
Yes you will be on our tour George! If you are on facebook you can look me up - Laura Elizabeth French (its a picture of me jumping in the air - dont ask!)
I am travelling alone too, although i have travelled with contiki before but it is definitely nice to know the names of a few people before you leave! I also arrive in the morning on the 7th. Where abouts are you from?
Hey Laura, good to hear from you. I'm traveling from San Diego, California. it's kind of a long flight, I'm sure it'll be worth it though. No, not on face book. Have you decided on any excursions? I'm thinking bungee-jumping is a must!
