London
The adventure of a lifetime kicks off today. Meet up with your new Contiki family in London town before hitting the road to Amsterdam.

This morning we’ll motor out of Berlin, ready for our next city. Berlin is one tough act to follow, but we think Poland will deliver.
Warsaw
The capital of Poland has a vibrant urban scene and we’re staying right in the centre of it. Tonight you’ll have free time for dinner, so Pierogi (Polish dumplings) and a glass of compote somewhere within Warsaw’s lively cafe scene should be on your agenda – just ask your Trip Manager for the best local hangs.

Tragic bombings after the war have seen this city experience a re-birth, and it’s packed with museums, a buzzing street art scene, and cool vibes dotted with a dose of random to keep us on our toes. Your local guide will give you the insider track as we take it all in on foot. A renowned musical city, keep your ears open day long and see what sound pleasures you also stumble upon.
