The bold new chapter encompasses expanded product offerings and a new pricing structure, marking the first stage of multi-year transformation for the youth travel pioneer
Toni Ambler, Chief Customer Officer, said, “GO WANDER is a reinvention of Contiki, inspired by the pioneering spirit that’s been part of our story from the start and reimagined for a new generation of young travellers.
“With 76 new trips, eight new travel worlds built around personal interests, and more ways to travel, we’re giving our travel agent partners more opportunities to match their clients with the right adventure - and young people more freedom to explore on their own terms.”
At the heart of the transformation is a new portfolio that will span eight distinct Travel Worlds, giving guests a clearer, more inspiring way to find experiences that match their interests.
The new structure includes:
- Contiki Local – travel like a local with small-group, immersive tours.
- Contiki Originals – iconic trips that made Contiki a well-known staple for young travellers.
- Contiki Highlights – trips focused on seeing the best of the best in any destination.
- Contiki Lite – itineraries that are light in price and heavy on experience.
- Contiki Outdoors – presenting the option to traverse the most adventurous parts of the world.
- Contiki Islands – for travellers who want to soak up the sun, sea and salt on the world’s most beautiful islands.
- Contiki Festivals – exclusive access and experiences at some of the world’s leading music and culture festivals.
- Contiki Luxe – for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
Contiki’s expanded offering also includes new destinations, including Fiji and the Maldives.
Kelly Jackson, MD & SVP Sales EMEA, commented, ““For our UK travel agent partners, this is about opening up a whole new world of selling opportunities. What really excites me is the opportunity to change the conversation. Contiki has always been known for bringing young people together through travel, but there's now so much more to discover, whether that's immersive local experiences, outdoor adventures, island escapes or something a little more luxurious.
