Hey Everyone,

My name is Tom, 21y/o, NSW and been looking at this tour for about a month now and trying to save hard to do it. How much are you guys budgeting for the trip in total? This will be my first time overseas and totally pumped about it.

After reading the post by Explorer1124643 above, I may have to book sooner than later if the date is getting full.

Unfortunately as I am traveling by myself, I prob won't be staying after the tour.

Its great to see so many people from Aus going on the trip and feel free to add me on facebook, my name is Thomas Kuhne.

Cheers

Hi Jen 09! How funny, you guys are doing the same thing I am planning on doing!! I am looking at booking the July 25th tour (it's almost full though eeek!!!) and I was planning on going a few days earlier to do San Diego. I am also from Australia (WA) and going solo. Little freaked about it so would love to meet the people that are going on that one too. I am hoping to book soon, and planning on staying a few days extra in New York.


Thats Great! it would be good to have someone else around to hang out with.

I din't know that the tour is nearly full, I better go book it soon. Hopefully I can do it tomorrow.

Tom - Im budgeting for around $10,000. I will add u on facebook my names Jenna Woolhead.

Hopefully we can book before it gets full!!

Hi guys, we went to the travel agent today to book but the tour was full and was only available on request where you have to wait 2 days for contiki to get back to you and let you know if your allowed to go or not. There were still spots available on the next tour for 15th August which we could be confirmed on straight away and the travel agent said it would be better to book that why we could rather than waiting to hear back about this date. So now were going on the 15th August tour.

Explorer1124643 and Tom if you are really set on travelling this date you should ring contiki straight away and put in a request and hope that your able to get in. Otherwise you should book another date ASAP my travel agent said this tour is really popular and booking up fast.

Hi Jen, thanks for that. I am starting to think an August/September might be the way to go, as June/July will be way more busy.

Hi everyone!
I'm Tanita and I'm from Melbourne. I booked into this tour last week because im going on exchange to McGill uni in Montreal for their fall semester and i wanted to get in a bit of travelling before hand! Unfortunately im 19 so not of the legal age in the states im afraid, which is worrying me a little after reading all of your posts so i hope that doesn't suck too much but im still very excited about this tour, it was a good chance for me to do it Smiler I have booked one night pre accom in LA but after I have a couple of weeks before the semester so im thinking niagara falls before i head to montreal if anyone is considering heading that way.
Can't wait to meet you all! xo
