    An unforgettable experience! I can't speak highly enough of how well organised, interesting and diverse the itinerary was. Our guide Riana was friendly, engaging, highly knowledgeable and happy to accommodate any requests and answer our questions (of which there were many!). Being our first trip to Europe, we weren't sure what to expect, but we weren't disappointed. Memories to cherish forever and a huge thank you to Riana for making the experience so amazing! 🥰

    Riri was hands down the best tour guide I've had! On a professional level, she absolutely nailed it—her knowledge of the history, culture, and hidden gems of each place we visited was impressive, and she made everything so easy to follow. But what really set her apart was how she balanced that with a super personal touch. She was friendly, approachable, and made sure everyone felt included, answering questions and sharing stories that made the experience so much more than just a tour. Whether it was her attention to detail or the way she kept things fun and engaging, Riri truly went above and beyond. She really made the trip unforgettable, and I can’t think of anyone more deserving of Tour Guide of the Year!

    I had a really fun experience with is tour. I loved getting to hang out with people my age and exploring the best of what Europe has to offer. The only down side is having to sitting in the couch for hours at a time. Somedays all we did was travel from point A to B be and only had a few hours at the end of the day to explore.

    Overall, this was an experience of a lifetime!! We had one of the best tour guides Nina and our amazing driver Greg! They truly made this experience memorable with the amount of time they dedicated in planning and organizing this trip. It was stress free, hassle free, and we were able to take away lots from all countries that we've traveled across. Some of which include, the historical aspects, culture, food and language. The long drives allowed us the time to bond and enjoy the scenic beauty of the different countries while the itinerary ensured that our time was allocated to cover the most of what each country had to offer. I would highly recommend this experience to solo travelers and anyone considering a CONTIKI experience. The post-trip blues are real so be prepared.

    Rianna is a gem of a Travel Manager. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with her by our side. Her expertise in guiding us throughout our whole trip was just so enjoyable. Every single penny spent on the whole trip makes it so worthwhile, coz no one else could have done it better than Rianna ! And lastly she is also a beautiful genuine soul ✨

    Rianna is an amazing trip manager! Had such great and memorable experiences during my trip all thanks to Rianna. Her delivery of information and facts about each destination made this trip worthwhile. You can see that Rianna loves what she does and goes above and beyond to ensure we have an all-inclusive experience. She made sure everyone in the group was included and made us feel comfortable. This trip was spectacular all because of Rianna!
