Customer Reviews

  • Best of Balkans (Start Dubrovnik, 15 Days) reviewer 1
    · July 10th, 2019
    I had the best time in the Balkans with contiki. We got to see and experience a lot in a short amount of time we had there. There were some cities we wish we could have stayed two nights instead of one but they would have to make the tour longer so no regrets there. Overall, a good tour of the Balkans.
