Las Fallas 'Festival of Fire' in Valencia

This is Valencia’s largest festival and has been voted as being in the top ten festivals to see in the world!

Pamplona 'Running of the Bulls'

World-renowned San Fermin festival - run with the Bulls or get out of the way! Nothing can prepare you for your first Pamplona experience. The Spanish sure know how to party and the famous San Fermin Festival is no exception. Truly something that must be experienced first hand - there is a whole lot more to this festival than running with bulls!!

London to Athens

Duration:

Tailor made for those wishing to travel the Contiki way but at a slightly more relaxed pace. Three nights in Paris gives you plenty of time for a day trip to Versailles or Euro Disney as well as the essential shopping on the Champs Elysees and museum visits. Make your way down through Italy via Spain and the French Riviera, chill for a few nights on the Greek island of Corfu before ending your tour in Athens after ticking the Acropolis off your must-see list.

Mediterranean Highlights

Duration:

Beginning in Madrid, the capital of Spain, your Mediterranean adventure takes you to all the hotspots along the Mediterranean coast and makes sure you experience the best of each city. Watch Flamenco dancers in Barcelona, rub shoulders with the rich and famous on the French Riviera and walk in the footsteps of Roman Emperors in Rome. Don't forget your stay in the City of Popes, Avignon and the obligatory photo of you and the Leaning Tower of Pisa. You'll be amazed at how much you'll see in just under two weeks!

Spanish Spree

Duration:

There's nothing quite like immersing yourself in the culture, language and way of life of a country but sometimes it's difficult to know where to begin. The Spanish Spree is the perfect blend of culture and party, both of which Spain has in abundance. See the Royal Palace in Madrid, the Alhambra in Granada and the Rock of Gibraltar, then cap off a fantastic holiday by watching the sun set over the Mediterranean on the beaches of Ibiza before some pre-party chill time at the Cafe del Mar.

Ultimate European + Greek Island Hopping

Duration:

This is THE Ultimate European experience. Covering 16 countries in 45 days, this is definitely one for the intrepid traveler. Travel through the major European destinations in the first half of the tour before spending some quality time on a Greek island with a cocktail. The second half of the tour is all about unchartered territory...Gallipoli, Troy, Istanbul, Belgrade and Budapest before making your way back to London via Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Your hardest decision will be finding somewhere for your next holiday that you haven't been!

46 Days Europe Camping

Duration:

Go everywhere, all at once, without spending your life savings! This is where it all began for Contiki, a bunch of friends traveling to amazing places and having a great time while getting there. This tour heads south to Spain, east to Turkey and Bulgaria and winds up the Dalmatian Coast ending on a high note in Prague and Amsterdam. No stone is left unturned! Camping is all about getting in and helping out which is what makes it so much fun.
