What travelers are saying

"We just went on Iconic Ireland and Ashford Castle and had a wonderful time. This was our first bus tour and we didn't know quite what to expect, however, we couldn't have had a more perfect time. Ireland is a beautiful country and we were stunned and thrilled with all the beauty we were able to see. The hotels were great - some definitely better than others but all were comfortable. My only complaint was that our last hotel had no ac and Ireland was experiencing a heat wave so the fan didn't help very much. That wasn't anyone's fault and I just went with the flow. Barbara (our guide) and Marina (our driver) were great and genuinely seemed to be concerned with everyone's comfort. The grande finale of Ashford Castle was incredible. Such a beautiful place and to be able to stay a night there was incredible. I ended up doing the Hawk Walk and horseback riding and I would recommend both - especially the hawk walk to anyone - I think people who are good riders would probably get to do more than we did but it was still great. I would recommend Brendan and this trip to anyone. Perfect amount of down time and activity. Loved it!"

"Highly recommend the Southern Africa Safari trip! Getting this many countries checked off my bucket list was great! But what made it even better was the amazing Contiki travel guides, informed local tour guides, and the participants! So many great photos and memories. Saw all the big five and made lifelong friends. See my photos of the adventures at @dilldeboer on Instagram!"

Custom Tour Selection Trips

  • Planning a customized tour allows for a truly tailored travel experience. Here are some essential tips to ensure your custom tour goes smoothly:

  • Take the time to research your destination thoroughly, including its culture, customs, and local attractions, to help you make informed decisions about your personalized trip.

  • While customization offers the freedom to design your ideal trip, be open to adjustments and changes along the way to accommodate unforeseen circumstances or unexpected opportunities.

  • Establish a realistic budget for your custom tour and discuss pricing and payment options with your tour operator to avoid any surprises during your trip.

  • Keep all important travel documents, such as passports, visas, and itinerary details, organized and easily accessible throughout your journey.
