“From lower-priced Europe trips to diverse styles of travel and flexible ways to book, Contiki is opening the door for young people to plan earlier and look forward to experiences that feel both attainable and unforgettable,” she added when describing Contiki’s 2026 Europe tours.
The 2026 tour collection features three new itineraries, including the eight-day “Road Trip to Oktoberfest,” which in addition to a visit the Bavarian festival, explores, Amsterdam, Brussels and Frankfurt; the seven-day “Norway Fjords Explorer,” which puts the focus on activities experiences like husky hikes, sea kayaking and a King Crab safari; and the “Croatia Island Sail & Ultra Festival With Festigo,” which features a week of sailing the Adriatic along with the opportunity to attend a top electronic dance music festival.
The roster of tours also includes options such as rail journeys, a slate of active itineraries, multi-country trips and single-country trips to destinations including Albania, Portugal and Italy.
