Contiki launches new USA, Canada & Mexico program at height of region popularity 3 August, 2011: Contiki has announced the launch of its 2012/13 USA, Canada and Mexico program, featuring over 20 diverse itineraries visiting the north, south, east and west of America, Canada and Mexico. Fiona Hunt, Managing Director of Contiki Holidays said, “The United States, Canada and Mexico are major hot spots for 18 to 35 year old Australians. Access-wise, the region is relatively inexpensive and easy to get to; it is widely known as a great value destination, even more so in recent times with the strength of the Australian dollar and the breadth of experiences on offer are really quite incredible. “Our 2012/13 USA, Canada and Mexico has been created with the region’s unique experiences in mind. For example, in the United States, travellers can go from the natural beauty of the canyonlands to the glitz and glamour of LA and Las Vegas on the one trip. “In Canada, they can experience the big cities like Toronto and Quebec, and still get a dose of nature in National Parks such as Jaser and Banff. And in Mexico, our tours are the perfect mix of rich cultural traditions, stunning beaches and untouched landscapes. “But tours aren’t all Contiki do in this region. We also offer short breaks in LA, New York or Hawaii, ski or board options in Lake Tahoe and New Years Eve experiences in Las Vegas, New York and new this year, Miami. “All of our trips are designed to ensure travellers experience more for less. Each itinerary includes transport, amazing places to stay, breakfast daily and loads of other meals, sightseeing, exclusive included highlights as well as an experienced Tour Manager who can share their expert knowledge of the region. “If that wasn’t already amazing value for money, there are also a number of ways to save on the cost of the tour with discounts for early payments, group bookings and a further five per cent off for those who have travelled with Contiki previously.” Here’s just a taste of the experiences on offer in Contiki’s 2011/13 USA, Canada and Mexico program: • NEW: Four-day Miami New Year priced from $815 per person, twin share (land only) Feel the heat this New Year in sizzling Miami!
