- NENatalia· January 14th, 2020There were a lot off add o es at last minute. We went to places just to pay the entry if you didn't pay, you expend the next hours doing nothing some times or the good ones walking in the Town.Show moreTrip date: December 2019
- JJosephineBurns· July 27th, 2019Fantastic tour overall. The itinary was great and allowed a good amount of time to experience everything we wanted to see. It covered an incredible amount of the country, especially Scotland. Tour guide Remi was fantastic and very helpful through the whole trip, especially as we were traveling with a wheelchair user. Accomodation wasn’t bad, could have been better but no complaints. Some of the meals were average but others were fantastic so it all balanced out.Show moreTrip date: July 2019
- JJessicaFord· June 29th, 2019I had the best time on this tour! Best way to see a lot in a short time! The Highlands in Scotland were my favorite part of the entire trip. Absolutely beautiful!Show moreTrip date: June 2019
- RRyanN· June 22nd, 2019Remí was fantastic. He was very fun to be with, knowledgeable, and very trustworthy. He paired very well with our driver Connor. He definitely had a positive impact on my experience, and I would take a trip with him at the helm again.Show moreTrip date: May 2019
- LLauraHarris· June 21st, 2019Our guide Remi and our driver Conor were absolutely fantastic. They were friendly, accommodating, skilled, and knowledgeable. They made the tour easy and gave us the best possible experience.Show moreTrip date: June 2019
- SSamanthaNayda· June 16th, 2019Honestly this Contiki was awesome and exceeded my expectations. Remi the tour manager was such a champion who kept things running smoothly but also sure we were having a laugh and learning things about the history of England and Scotland. Bus driver Conor was also phenomenal navigating the small streets and alleyways, what an absolute legend. When I started my trip I had just come off the back off another and was extremely homesick but because of how smooth it ran and how many knowledge bombs Remi was dropping I soon felt much more comfortable. Would definitely recommend this Contiki but more so the guide and driver because they legit made the trip!Show moreTrip date: June 2019

- EMElizabeth· October 8th, 2016This was a whirlwind amazing trip as a great intro to all these exciting new sites and places. A good balance between the big cities, rural countryside and scenic stops. Megs is nothing short as a phenomenal trip manager, she is the cream of the crop. Outgoing, witty, funny, engaging, personable, smart, caring, sweet..the list goes on. She got to know everyone individually and was excellent at assessing everyone's needs and personalities. I liked how she went down the bus everyday to talk to everyone especially if you were sitting alone that day she made you feel part of the group. Her knowledge of historical information while combining it with pop culture and quirky references is outstanding. The girl knows her stuff. She delivered the info so it was understandable and still interesting to the everyday traveler. She showed a good balance between professionalism and going out and engaging with the group. 5 stars and cheers for Megs. Woot woot. Well done. Overall a phenomenal experience and tour Contiki. Thank you.Show moreTrip date: September 2016
- EMEmily· June 24th, 2016My sister and I went on our second Contiki trip and decided to take the England/Scotland tour. Our tour guide Ellie was fantastic! She told us lots about the different places we went too and was always approachable to talk to. When we had bus issues or were stuck in traffic she would play some awesome music for us or gave us more info on the history of the country and the city we were going to visit next. She made my second Contiki trip a absolute blast! Thanks Ellie!! :)Show moreTrip date: July 2015
