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, peak your adrenaline with watersports in the Austrian Alps, discover five of the most dreamy Italian destinations, raise a glass of Beaujolais at Contiki’s very own Chateau and soak up the Parisian sights before crossing the Channel to London with a backpack bursting with memories.

The perfect mix of seasides and cities, the Barcelona to London Quest kicks off in Barcelona, skirting the Mediterranean Sea before heading up through the middle of Italy and on to Eastern Europe, winding up in London after a perfectly balanced adventure.

Paris, Barcelona, Nice and Rome – which European cities could be more extra? See famous sights and enjoy endless nights in all the cities you ever wanted to experience. Along the way, marvel at the mountains of Switzerland, then unwind by the pool at our very own luxury Chateau nestled amidst the vineyards of the Beaujolais region. 

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.

A couple of weeks holidaying isn’t your style. You’re coming to Europe and you’re here to do the whole kit & caboodle with a few days sailing around the islands of Greece in between. We salute you! Albania, Croatia, Italy, Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein, Switzerland … just listing the countries on this trip is more than we have time for. 

7 fun-filled days, 6 beautiful countries, and endless memories to be made. All it needs is you, and voila! It’s the perfect compact trip to make all your European fantasies come to life. Starting in Croatia, journeying through Venice, the Swiss Alps, Paris and ending in London, you’ll be surprised how much you can get up to in a week

A castle and an old town in Ljubljana. Snails & champagne in Paris. A concentration camp in Krakow & pizza by a World Heritage Site in Rome. The trail to London is all about balancing the things you’ve always dreamed of with the things you’ve not even fathomed. With 9 countries conquered in 16 days, you’ll know exactly which places stole your heart & deserve a second visit.

Ooh la la! Ready to live la high life? This unique weekender is set at the exclusive Château by Contiki, the palatial exclusive property that’s been wowing our travellers for decades (and with it’s new facelift it’s looking more chic than ever, if we may say so ourselves). There’ll be parties of course. Pool parties with live music. Dancing the night away in the legendary La Cave. (And the bar is always open to shoot some pool and and sip some fizz). But there’ll also be plenty of time for more cultured activities, including painting evenings (accompanied with beaujolais wine), hiking the surrounding vineyards and enjoying yoga on those sweeping lawns. Ready for the ultimate weekender?
