Hey Jason
which day did u book the alcatraz tour for?
were going to try and do the 9am one aswell

Hi Megan.
I have booked for the Thursday 17th for the 9am.
My travel agent check with Contiki they said that would be the best day.
Easy to do on the net they confirm everything send it all to you by e mail all done.
Thanks Jason

Boys are more than welcome! Who else will help us carry all those bags? lol

Can't wait to meet all of you! is anyone getting there early? Jane & I get in on the 8th so we can take over disneyland before the tour starts.

We're arriving the day before, so not so early for us
As for Vegas, I've already booked a Cirque du Soleil show - Mystere for 20th July @ 9.30PM.

We received our documentation today, and the optional listed for the Grand Canyon is as follows:

Flight to the Grand Canyon & Skywalk $199USD
Travel by state of the art vistaliner airplanes from the Las Vegas valley to the heart of the Hualapai Nation. Upon arrival at the terminal use the convenient area shuttle service to reach the Indian Village. The village consists of five small exhibits depicting not only the Hualapai Tribe, but three other Arizona tribes and the tipis that represent many Plains Indian tribes.

no thanks....

I've done some research, and have found this one: http://www.papillon.com/popris/show_package.aspx?package_id=19&lang=en-US
I think I might book Tony & I on this before we leave NZ. It looks better than the Contiki Optional.

Hi everyone I am also doing the Best of USA!! Looking forward to meeting you all and having a FANTASTIC time

Hi Beck Not long to go now!!

Hey Megan,

My friend Jane and I are doing Disneyland on July 9, 10 & 11 and were thinking of doing Universal Studio's on the 12th and getting a front of the line pass. If you are interested, we can all meet up and have a ball!

Amy

Hey I am not sure yet what I am going to do in LA - I am arriving in LA on the 11 July but am not sure yet what to do, whether to do disneyland on my own or with contiki? Also is anyone going to visit the Grand Canyon while in Las Vegas?

I've booked us on the Grand Canyon tour that I linked a couple of posts back - decided not to do the one that Contiki is offering.

I'm going to book our front of line tickets for Universal Studios on the 14th right now

Hey Amy
At this stage we only have the 10th available to do universal studios, as we are heading down to san diego for 2 nights, but if things change ill let ya know, because the more the merrier!
this front of the line pass sounds good!? might have to check out the website..

Hi Beck, are u travelling with some1 or alone?

Hey Beck, I'm getting to LA on the 11th of July to!I'm going to wait and go to Disneyland while on contiki I thought it'd be a bit more fun rather than doing it alone. I'm not visiting the grand canyon, beacuse I have been there before but I think other people are doing it!
