Got a question?Answers to frequently asked questions & things you need to know:
How much luggage can I bring?On our tours, luggage is restricted to a maximum
suitcase size of 73cm x 50cm x 25cm (29” x 20”
x 10”) & maximum weight of 20 kg (44lbs) plus
one small hand/day bag that can go on the coach
with you.
Contiki reserves the right to refuse to accept
larger & heavier suitcases on tour.
On Hogmanay, St. Patrick’s & Ski tours, you’ll
need a towel which can be purchased from
Contiki in London, if necessary.
On Ski holidays you may bring one pair of ski
boots & skis or a snowboard. Any luggage over
the restricted size or amount can be stored with
Contiki in London at a small charge. Baggage is
carried at the owner’s risk & baggage insurance is
strongly recommended.
Do I need vaccinations?At the time this brochure went to press
(May, 2012), no vaccinations were necessary.
However, it is wise to check up-to-date
information with your travel agent prior to
departure. Don’t forget to bring with you any
medication that you may require en route, such
as antihistamines, antibiotics.
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. 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.au & 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.au/checkin. Checking in will you save time on your fi rst day of tour, give you essential know before you go information & also ensure that Contiki can contact you in the unlikely 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.

disrupt & ruin your holiday. Contiki very strongly recommends that you take out comprehensive

participation in your holiday. For insurance details, please speak to your travel agent or Contiki when you
are booking your tour.

before you leave home.

with your deposit, the full amount of your deposit &/or payment to Contiki Holidays will be refunded

If such improvements can be made, or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control make changes necessary, we reserve the right to vary itineraries & to substitute hotels. Contiki is not responsible for any other travel arrangements affected due to our changes or cancellations.
5. LIABILITY5.1 Your travel agent shall, on the receipt of any monies, hold such monies for you until the booking is confirmed at which time those monies shall be remitted promptly by your travel agent to us. All such monies received by us will be deposited as required by law. 5.2 We will be entitled to keep for our account any interest earned on such monies.5.3 All monies paid by you to us through your travel agent or otherwise, whether in respect of the deposit or full payment, may be disbursed by us as & when we see fit, in respect of the services to be provided &/or fees payable under the tour program. The payment of a deposit or any other monies in respect of your tour shall be deemed to be an authorisation for disbursement thereof as aforesaid.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES1. BOOKING YOUR HOLIDAY1.1 In order to reserve your holiday, a deposit of A$200, per person per tour, or the full amount payable if the booking is made within 45 days of your departure, must be submitted to Contiki by you in respect of that holiday. This payment is in addition to any deposit required by your travel agent. The deposit is accepted as a first installment of the holiday price by Contiki only once the booking has been confirmed in writing by Contiki or your travel agent.1.2 Your land reservation will be confirmed on receipt of a non refundable deposit of A$200 per person per tour which must be within 7 days of booking or the reservation will automatically be cancelled.1.3 Any special meal requirements will be made on a request basis only. Contiki cannot guarantee special meal requests nor will it assume any responsibility or liability if clients’ special meal requirements are not fulfilled.

When making multi-tour bookings, full payment is due no later than 45 days prior to your departure date.

This is expressed as a percentage of the holiday price & is calculated as follows:
PERIOD OF NOTICE CANCELLATION FEEOver 45 days notice: ........................................ Deposit is forfeited45-22 days: ......................................................27.5% of tour fare21-8 days: ...........................................................33% of tour fare7-1 days: .............................................................55% of tour fareDay of departure: ...............................................100% of tour fare
Where the percentage cancellation fee is less than the tour deposit, the cancellation fee will equal loss of deposit.

4. IF YOU CHANGE YOUR BOOKING4.1 If after your booking has been confirmed & more than 45 days prior to tour departure, you wish to change to an alternate departure date or you wish to change to a different Contiki holiday, you may do so subject to availability & provided the new holiday date is also in this brochure.4.2 A fee of A$35 per person will be charged for any revision or alteration made to a reservation after the booking is confirmed unless the change increases the value of the booking. A change of tour date, tour itinerary booking within 45 days of tour departure will be treated as a cancellation, & normal cancellation fees will apply except when the change is to an earlier departure date of equivalent or greater value in which case a A$35 per person amendment fee will be charged.
