Itinerary

Day 1: London to Amsterdam

Today we’ll meet in the heart of London, throwing high fives to each other in recognition of the epic decision we all made to kick off the new year in Amsterdam. Let’s do this! Shortly before jumping on our ferry for France, we’ll be taking in the English coastline beauty of the White Cliffs of Dover, that owe their colour to a composition of chalk. Off the ferry we arrive in the port town of Calais - French soil! We travel north via Belgium before reaching ... Amsterdam! Home of good times and cuteness galore. Fun fact: the city has 1539 bridges, 165 canals, and 2500 house boats. Yes, you read that right, and it's all here for you to explore. The night is yours to start getting familiar with the scene that will ring in your best night of the year - we're calling it early!

Contiki (CA)

Contiki is a New Zealand-based tour company that caters to 18 to 35-year-olds, offering over 350 different tours in over 75 countries in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, North America, South America, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.[1] It is a subsidiary of The Travel Corporation. Its tours historically had a reputation for partying;[2][3] however, it also operates wellness trips culturally immersive experiences that focus less on alcohol, which are more popular with Generation Z.[4] The company owns lodging facilities in Europe, including the Chateau De Cruix, a 16th century castle in the Beaujolais wine region, and the Gasthof Schoneck in the Austrian Tyrol. The name "Contiki" comes from the portmanteau 'Con' from the word 'Continent' and 'Tiki'; from the Māori referring to the first man, often symbolised as a pendant known as hei-tiki. It can also be attributed to the New Zealand slang 'Tiki-tour' describing taking a longer route to a destination in order to explore.[5]

This trip was beyond describable! Our trip manager was by far the best contiki trip manager I’ve ever had. This was such a short trip but the way she made everyone feel like a family with her bubbly personality and overall kindness it made the trip so worthwhile. Got to experience an incredible Dutch dinner highly recommend! The new year eve party was the best new year eve I’ve ever had!! Very easy to book!

The trip was fantastic, great activities and good options with a nice amount of free time. Our trip manager was absolutely amazing! The trip was well organised, only downfall was the accommodation was abit far from the city centre but other than that it was a great time!

Worth the money! You get a lot from the hostel and the included trips. The trip was amazing! It was a great balance of planned items but plenty of time to be able to do things on our own. And made the trip incredible!

Great trip, everything was sorted for us and we didnt have to worry about any travel or activities as our tour guide was super helpful giving tips and ensuring everyone was happy. A little too much pressure to make everyone on the trip best friends and feeling like outcasts if you just wanted to do your own thing or speak to other people outside of contiki. Overall the trip was easy and fun, would do it again. I booked extremely last minute on a busy trip and contiki was quick with responses and helped with every step. Would be helpful if they shared the Facebook group before being on the coach as we could've met people on the trip before leaving.
