Contiki Goes Big in Europe in 2015 with 16 New Trips
The world's leading travel brand for 18-35s launches their biggest Europe offering
to date, with more included, more choice and more time to explore
Johannesburg, 30 September– No two travellers are the same. That's why Contiki's new Europe 2015 brochure offers something for everyone, with eight new trip styles that cater to the different experiences young people want to have on holiday. The original youth travel brand's 2015 lineup also includes 16 brand new trips, with Morocco and Portugal as exciting sunny new destinations.
Just like back in '62, the Contiki (www.contiki.com) mission is the same: provide young explorers with more choice, more freedom and more destinations at a great price and with plenty of awesome included experiences.
No longer will travellers choose their travel experience based on accommodation. Instead, they can choose the trip that works best for their travel style, whether they live for the late nights and bright lights of major cities or choose to take it easy and relax on some of the world's best beaches. Contiki's eight new Europe travel experiences include:
Discovery PlusSee and do it all with top amenities and incredible places to rest your head
High EnergyExperience Europe through culture-filled days, epic sights and late nights
Easy PaceA more relaxed way to see Europe, for those who want to take it slow
In-Depth ExplorerGet to the heart of the places you visit with more unique experiences and free time to explore
Freestyle Camping European camping adventures with all the luxuries of home
Sailing & Cruise Discover the freedom of a holiday on Europe's crystal clear waters
Festivals & Short Stays Join our lineup of big festivals, day-trips & Christmas/NYE celebrations
Winter & Ski Explore Europe covered in a dusting of snow or hit some of world's best slopes
General Manager Kelly Jackson, says the new categories help make it easier for you and your client to pick the itinerary most suited to them and their needs. “Customer feedback showed us that decisions were based on experiences the client wanted rather than the accommodation so we've developed a new range of travel experiences which make it easy for young travellers to identify with.”

Introduced by popular demand from Contiki's core demographic of 18-35s are three new trips heading to Morocco and Portugal. These culture-filled European hotspots are In-Depth Explorer itineraries, meaning travellers will live like a local with unique regional experiences and more nights in each city.
15-Day Spain, Morocco & Portugal from R23 310 (inclusive of early payment discount)
With 2-3 nights in each city, this epic journey through Spain, Morocco and Portugal will give explorers a real feel for the destinations they visit. When they're not taking in the sights and smells of the markets on their personal ME Time, young travellers will indulge in the must-see's of Europe with locally guided tours of Lisbon, Granada's Alahambra Palace and Marrakech's Bahia Palace. All included, of course!
21-Day Iberian Peninsula & Morocco from R31 880 (inclusive of early payment discount)
Visiting the same countries as the Spain, Morocco & Portugal trip, the extra week gives travellers an opportunity to discover the Northern parts of Spain and Western coastline as well. Travellers will explore the artistic and vibrant city of Barcelona before flying to the island of Ibiza for beautiful beaches and a party they won't soon forget!
5-day Morocco from R7 035 (inclusive of early payment discount)
The perfect add-on to any Contiki trip, this 5-day journey spends two nights each in the bustling cities of Marrakech and Fez exploring the markets and learning about the rich history and culture of the Moroccan people.
