Got a question?Answers to frequently asked questions & things you need to know:
Do I need visas?Please read carefully. Depending on your nationality,
you may require visas to enter certain countries included
in your tour. You are fully responsible for obtaining all
necessary visas prior to the departure of your tour.
Contiki are not legally permitted to knowingly allow
anybody who does not have a valid visa to join a tour.
Consult your travel agent to determine which visas you
require & how to obtain them.
Schengen Visas
The majority of our tours travel in countries that are
covered by the Schengen Agreement which relates to
visas. Citizens of many countries – eg. Australia,
United States, Canada, New Zealand – can travel in
the Schengen area without a visa. If you require a visa
to enter the Schengen area you only need to obtain
one visa which will allow you to travel in all Schengen
countries Schengen visas can be issued for single entry
or multiple entries. If your tour travels outside of the
Schengen area at any point you will require a multiple
entry visa. The tours that require multiple entry
Schengen visas are listed below:
Visas for Non-Schengen Countries
Some of our tours also visit countries that are not
covered by the Schengen Agreement. You may require
visas for countries including the United Kingdom,
Ireland, Egypt & Russia. Depending on your
nationality it may be possible to obtain visas for Egypt
upon arrival – you should check before you depart for
your tour.
Important
1. Visas can take up to six weeks & a fee is normally
charged.
2. Failure to obtain all necessary visas could cause you
to miss part of your tour & will result in you incurring
considerable expense & inconvenience.
3. It is better to apply for all visas through your travel
agent before you leave home. Your travel agent will
contact Contiki for full details.
4. Contiki will provide you with visa contacts from our
London base at the Royal National Hotel, if
necessary.

Brochure authenticityWe have put a great deal of effort into producing this
brochure. The information given & literature produced
by Contiki has been compiled with care & is published
in good faith (this includes contiki.com & our
e-brochures). Sometimes, because of circumstances
outside our control, we have to alter some activities
due to seasonal closing or repairs to buildings, etc.,
especially early or late in the season. If this happens,
alternatives will be arranged.
Am I expected to tip on tour?Every country in the world has different tipping
policies & in Europe, within service industries, tipping is
common practice. Tipping is totally optional & only
given if you feel the service has exceeded your
expectations. Your Tour Manager will assist you with
any questions about this.
If you think your Contiki Team have done an
exceptional job then you may wish to tip them. This is
entirely discretionary – it’s completely up to you.
Online check-inIt is strongly recommended that you check in to your
tour prior to departure at contiki.com/checkin.
Checking in will you save time on your fi rst day of tour,

event of any changes to your trip due to matters out
of our control. For more information on how to get
more before & after your tour see p.5.

(June, 2012), no vaccinations were necessary.

In some cases, airline tickets are 100% non refundable.4. IF YOU CHANGE YOUR BOOKING4.1 If after your booking has been confi rmed, you wish to change to an alternate departure date or you wish to change to a different Contiki vacation, you may do so subject to availability and provided the new vacation date is also in this brochure.4.2 A fee of C$35 per person will be charged for any revision or alteration made to a reservation after the booking is confi rmed unless the change increases the value of the booking.
