England Tours for Young Adults

Limited budget to rock Europe but don’t want to compromise? This trip hits up London, Rome & Paris plus ancient ruins & alpine views in 8 days. Starting in Rome for pizza & history, we’ll parade through the breath-taking Alpine views of Switzerland and fall in love with romantic Paris, before arriving in the one-and-only city of London. On the way we’ll take time to snap pictures of the Vatican, Tuscany, Florence, Swiss villages & Lake Como, laze around the Leaning Tower of Pisa, as well as attempting to devour snails & wash them down with French champagne. Europe, it’s been real.

On this trip we’ll cross Europe from East to West, checking off plenty of bucket list sights along the way. Take in the cultural hotspots of Eastern Europe, pull on some warm woollen gear to explore the Austrian Alps, live your Italian dreams without the summer crowds, raise a glass of Beaujolais at Contiki’s very own Chateau and soak up the Parisian sights (with snow if we’re lucky) before crossing the Channel to London with a backpack bursting with memories.

This one makes tracks through some of Europe’s coolest cities, taking the train from London to Budapest and spending time in dreamy Paris, quirky Amsterdam, bohemian Prague and opulent Vienna along the way. Foodie walking tours, street art, Berlin’s iconic nightlife & a dinner cruise on the Danube are just a few of the highlights, while scenic train rides show you authentic Europe from a classic mode of transport.

Now’s the time to explore Africa on your terms with this tour that’s affordable for young travellers. Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Kruger National Park, Lake Malawi, Zanzibar, Victoria Falls — we used to call this trip “Africa Complete,” but those pesky lawyers made us change it. While it may not feature ALL of Africa, it’s still pretty darn close. Wildlife safaris, cultural contact, rugged landscapes, and natural landmarks spread across six incredible countries. And with supremely knowledgeable CEOs (Chief Experience Officers), meals prepared from fresh local produce, and starlit camping stays, you’ll gain a kinship with this land and its people you won’t find anywhere else.

Travelling on a budget doesn’t mean you have to see less; it just means you have to plan more. Lucky for you, we’re pretty great planners. Cross nine countries off your list in 21 thrilling days and immerse yourself in everything Europe has to offer. Check out the galleries and museums of Paris, the beauty of the Swiss Alps, delicious Italian cuisine (and, of course, wine!), the exciting nightlife of Berlin, and Prague, and the Eastern charms of Krakow, Vienna, and Budapest. Do more, spend less.

There’s so much to fit in with this 11 day adventure around 5 incredible Balkan countries. Take in the Dalmatian Coastline as we head to the scenic city of Dubrovnik, explore the architecture of Belgrade before finishing up in the Hungarian capital of Budapest.

Hit the slopes of the South Island’s dominating Southern Alps, home to New Zealand’s premier ski areas. And while each ski area has its own unique character, they’re all framed against NZ’s stunning scenic backdrops – lakes, rivers, lush green, golden plains, dense forest, and blue ocean. The air is crisp and clean, the scenery amazing and the snow wonderful – let’s go!
