    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!

    It was simply immersive and interesting to travel with Rianna, and I can only warmly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional travel experience. Her in-depth knowledge of travel is impressive. Not only does she know how to organize itineraries perfectly suited to the needs of travelers, but she also has a wealth of tips and advice to make each stay unique and memorable. In addition to her professional skills, Rianna is incredibly friendly with travelers. She creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the very first contact, putting everyone at ease. This ability to form authentic connections makes all the difference, especially in group travel settings. One of the things that impressed me the most is her dedication to helping others. She is always there to answer questions, resolve small issues, and ensure that everything runs smoothly. Her assistance is invaluable and reassuring, especially in moments when one might feel a bit lost in unfamiliar territory. She expresses herself clearly, whether she is giving instructions, telling a story, or sharing essential information. Her dynamic communication style brings a real positive energy to every group. Rianna is an exemplary trip manager whose professionalism, kindness, and enthusiasm are the keys to successful and unforgettable trips. - Van :)
