  Amazing, well prepared and enthusiastic tour guide! Rianna was phenomenal! Rianna was an incredible Guide. I had such a great experience on my Contiki with Rianna because she was so organised. I love her puns she cared about all of her travelers! She was so knowledgeable, fun, and enthusiastic everyday. If it wasn't for Rianna, this trip would not have been as amazing as it was. I'm so grateful that I got to have Rianna for my first ever contiki. I will definitely come back again, but only if Rianna as my guide again!! She is the best guide ever!!! Everyone talked about how amazing Rianna was and said the trip would not have been the same without her.

  Rianna was amazing and by far the best trip guide I have encountered in my travels so far. She was organised in every way possible and helped the trip flow smoothly without any issues, hiccups or worries for travelers. Her knowledge of each locations and destination was second to none and we were incredibly impressed with this. I would definitely travel with Rianna again and highly recommend her to friends considering travel

  My itinerary was perfect , and better than I could have wished for. Rianna our tour guide was absolutely amazing, she was such a friendly happy person with a gorgeous personality,,she was very much in control of the group and she was always there to help anyone with any issues they had. As well as being there for everyone, she was extremely knowledgeable and made our trip the amazing experience that it was, I can’t praise her enough!

  An Unforgettable Scandinavian Adventure ! I recently had the pleasure of traveling through Scandinavia, and I can honestly say that my experience was truly exceptional, thanks to our tour guide, Rianna. She was unlike any guide I've ever encountered, demonstrating an extraordinary ability to understand what truly matters to travelers. Rianna's organisation and deep knowledge of the history and culture of the places we visited were nothing short of superb. Her attention to detail was evident in the little things, like the fun facts she shared and the creative photo challenges she organised . These thoughtful touches highlighted her passion and dedication to ensuring our trip was not only enjoyable but unforgettable. What truly set our guide apart was her kind and thoughtful nature. She genuinely cared about each and every traveler on our trip, and her warmth made us all feel incredibly valued. It's rare to find someone so dedicated to their work, and her love for what she does shines through in every aspect of her guiding. I can only hope that when the time comes for my next adventure, I'll be fortunate enough to have Rianna as my guide once again. Thank you, Rianna, for your dedication, hard work, and unwavering commitment to creating remarkable travel experiences. For anyone considering travelling to this magnificent part of the world, there are so many beautiful things to see and do. Book your trip today!

  Rianna is an awesome TM! Her knowledge in the local culture and the surrounding environment is outstanding and I learnt so much throughout the tour. The work she puts in behind the scenes really shows, everything was well organised and I feel like this trip went so smooth. One thing that really stood out for me is her dedication to making sure everyone on the tour is happy and included in every activity that we did. I’ve been on many tours in the past, I’ve never had a group that came together like this one and I truly believe that’s all because of Rianna. She develops a connection with everyone in the group and loves to bring out the best in them. There was never a dull moment throughout the tour. whether it was fun games to fill in time, jokes, puns or teaching us about the area we were in, Rianna always knew what the group needed. I’m really impressed with Rianna and she definitely made this a trip of a lifetime, best TM I’ve ever had.

  This has been my 9th contiki and Rianna was truly the best tour manger I have ever had out of all of them! She was so helpful, knowledgeable, kind, patient, fun, easy to approach, was always there for us and always did it with a smile on her face! She made me feel comfortable at the same time made me go outside of my comfort zone. She always had an answer to every question asked. She helped me when I had issues with my luggage, health issues and my accident of falling on the trip. After my accident in the trip, she made sure I had help with my luggage, walked less from the bus, had a good nights rest and was feel well. She is truly amazing! I believe everything on the tour went so smoothly because of her including having the best driver, a great group that didn’t exclude anyone and was like family and an amazing tour. It is rare to have all 3 things go so well. Barney was more like a second tour guide than a driver he was so smart, patient, helpful with luggage and got us through all those winding roads of Norway with ease. After I fell he even picked me up places so I could walk less on my sprained ankle, he is truly the best driver I ever had! He is so friendly and never got upset if I took a little longer to bring my suitcase it the morning. Rianna and Barney were the perfect match for an amazing contiki tour!

  In the past 7 or 8 years, I’d say I have traveled pretty extensively. I’ve done 15 tours with Contiki alone, and I’ve probably another 14 combined with its competition. There’s a reason why I always come back to Contiki and why I’ve always done the most tours with them. It’s not just their destinations, or the travel culture they’ve created. It’s not even that sense of togetherness that makes the groups feel like we’re all in this together. It’s because of their guides! One after another just seems to raise the bar, and Rianna has raised it to entirely new levels! I genuinely don’t see how anyone could beat her, she is unmatched!! Now I know that’s pretty high praise but anyone that’s spent any amount of time with her will know it’s actually pretty spot in! I don’t even think it’s her working, it’s just who she is. For one. She’s very friendly and engaging. I’m very much a people person and I know not everyone is, and thats okay. However, she is very much a people person and it’s always nice when you meet your own kind. And Rihanna of our kind. She’s friendly, always happy to talk to you about absolutely anything, and even better, she has the kind of personality that makes it seem like just asking her a question or engaging with her helps make her day. Why wouldn’t you want to travel with someone that inviting? Secondly, she’s always up to do whatever with the group. I still remember the night when we were in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do, and nowhere to go. And she pulled out a bunch of games for us to play. And even better than that, we did some karaoke and she did a duet with me!!! How awesome is that?… I’d still think we could have won a Grammy if we wanted lolol. It doesn’t even stop there, she brings the laughs too! I’m pretty sure she knows every dad joke known to mankind! But above all else is her ability to connect, create a one on one relationship with you and make you just want to be a friend! Bravo Rihanna, I’d say she’s worth her weight in gold but even that would be selling her short! Thank you for the laughs and good
