adventure, you have to go that little bit further. There's always more to explore and discover, and experiencing Australia with Contiki is a great way to do it.

Zealand on the big screen, now it's time to take it on in person with an action-packed Contiki holiday! Nowhere else on earth has such staggeringly beautiful and diverse landscapes, from the Franz Josef Glacier to the alpine playground of Queenstown, and the boiling thermal pools of Rotorua to the untouched sand dunes of Ninety Mile Beach.

Australia is our home turf. Sure, we'll show you the Sydney Opera House, Uluru and The Great Barrier Reef, but we'll also take you off the beaten track. Our sense of adventure and local expertize will really make the difference. See staggeringly diverse landscapes from a hot air balloon in the desert, walk through ancient rainforests teaming with life, raft through the whitewash of the mighty Tully River, find out how bright the stars are when you are 3,000 km from the nearest city, cuddle a koala so you know what it feels like or join in the native dance and boomerang throwing of Australia's indigenous Aborigines there’s so much to see and do! It's your journey, and we'll be there to help you make the most of it!

Arthur’s Pass

Franz Josef & Fox Glacier Haast Pass Milford Sound

But it's not just about admiring the natural beauty, doing New Zealand with Contiki is about challenging yourself. Don't just see the glacier, actually walk on it, check out the view from the end of a bungy cord, or skydive at 15,000 feet! Like the water? Get into it - there's whitewater rafting, jet boating or surfing at one of the wild and beautiful West Coast beaches. It's all about having a great time and the Kiwis are some of the most chilled out and friendly people on earth. So kick back and enjoy the Kiwi lifestyle - it's as they say - 'wicked'!

Tunes while you travel

Trying new food and letting your tummy takeover is half the fun of visiting a new country.

We know music is central to most peoples' lives, that's why we've always seen music as an important part of the overall Contiki experience. Our state of the art stereos pump music through our speaker system on board each of our vehicles.

Australia and New Zealand have plenty of delicious dishes from juicy steak and tender lamb, to arguably, the world’s best fish and seafood including prawns, oysters, and local specialties like Moreton Bay bugs and large green mussels. There’s also the chance to try Australian Aboriginal bush tucker delicacies like witchetty grubs and kangaroo and a New Zealand Maori Hangi consisting of food cooked in an underground pit. With such a fantastic multi-cultural mix there’s something to suit everyone’s taste buds! Providing a selection of breakfasts lunches and dinners, we’ll make sure you get your fill of fresh, seasonal produce but still give you the opportunity to indulge in mouthwatering meals at local eateries on your free time. Please Note: If you have any special dietary requests please make these known at the time of booking. Although we’ll bend over backwards to make sure it happens, standards can sometimes vary from place to place. Unfortunately we can’t be held responsible for local meals that don’t meet your exact requirements. It’s all part of the adventure!

For more information refer to: www.contiki.com/contikiexperience

In addition, your Contiki crew carries a wealth of music and uses it to enhance your travels and appreciation of Australia and/or New Zealand. They've got theme music that connects you to a city or sight you're visiting, dance music to inspire you on an evening out or the latest tunes to ensure entertaining scenic drives. If you have your own favourites, we encourage you to bring them along as others may want to hear your Top 10!

Charging on the go! Flat batteries are no longer an excuse for missing out on a great photo, because we’ve fitted the vast majority of our coaches with charging units. And you’ll never have to worry about going cold turkey just because your ipod or mp3 player died minutes after you hit the highway. Just don’t forget to bring your Australasian plug adaptors.

Also, if you want to send brag-mail to your friends and family stuck at home, there are plenty of Internet cafés that will help you rub it in.

What are my choices and the prices?

When do I choose and how do I pay? Optionals are arranged and paid for on tour, not beforehand. By leaving the final decisions until then, you'll have the following benefits: • You’ll be able to choose what interests you, at the same time as your new friends. • You'll get great value, as we’ve negotiated the best rates for each Optional. • An experienced Tour Manager who'll offer you personal advice as well as take care of all the arrangements. • Some activities are seasonal whilst others are weather dependent. So deciding on tour, rather than before, makes sense. This will make your holiday hassle free, better value and more enjoyable, ensuring greater fun, bigger laughs and better stories. Payment will be made on tour and can be made by cash, travellers checks (in $AUD in Australia or $NZD in New Zealand) or by credit cards. IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: Some of these activities involve outdoor adventure and can be physically demanding, so there’s always an element of risk. You should make your own decisions about these activities and only participate in activities that you feel comfortable you can handle. It’s also a good idea to check that your insurance includes your participation in adventure activities. The “Zorb” Adventure Hill

Traveling with Contiki is an adventure you won’t forget – new places, amazing people and what’s even better is that we can do our bit to protect the planet along the way so that those who follow will also have plenty to enjoy.

What we are doing about climate change Global tourism can place additional pressures on communities around the world. Overcrowding, damage to the environment and loss of cultural heritage are some of the impacts being seen. There are significant challenges but our core belief is that by fostering sustainable tourism and acting now to prevent further climate change we can truly make a difference. We are working with our hotel and excursion partners to reduce our carbon footprint and reduce resource consumption and waste. We are also ensuring that our own offices reduce their carbon footprints through ongoing recycling and energy reduction programs, and adopting new initiatives which help to protect the environment and support the communities in which we operate. Contiki’s modern coaches are one of the most environmentally friendly ways to travel so you can breathe easy and your footprint will be a little lighter too. Contiki’s coaches are among the best in Australia and New Zealand and by continually updating our fleet we ensure that not only do you travel in style but that our engines are fuel efficient & environmentally friendly too. You’ll be happy to know coach travel emits less carbon emissions and other harmful greenhouse gases per passenger than most other forms of transport including cars and trains. Check out the facts….

FLY ‘N’ TOUR DEAL!!

Our Group of companies are donating US$1 million per year to fund much-needed conservation, community and sustainable tourism projects that will create a better world for future generations to enjoy. To ensure every dollar goes to people and places in need, each project is carefully vetted by the Foundation’s independent board of trustees, with Contiki also donating staff time and additional resources to the Foundation.

What you can do

Book any land and air package that begins or ends in Sydney or Auckland and you will receive 4 extra days FREE in Sydney or 3 extra days FREE in Auckland plus extras. (See pages 17 and 45 for more details.)

There is a lot you can do to make a difference while travelling. Even simple things like respecting the local culture of the countries you’re visiting and making sure to live a little greener, by recycling your trash, saving energy by switching off air-conditioning and lights in the hotel rooms you are staying in, and conserving water, means the special places you visit will remain as you experience them. In the fight against climate change, reducing carbon emissions has to be the top priority, but carbon offsetting is another small thing you can do to make a difference. You’ll find links on our website where you can calculate your carbon emissions and pay a small fee that goes towards sustainable energy projects that reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. So visit www.contiki.com/responsibletravel for more tips on what you can do. We hope that while you’re painting the town red, you don’t stop thinking green.

The world in an Island!

Northern Territory: ‘Out of this world’ is the best way to describe the experience you’ll get in the Outback. With vast tracts of red soil and sparse greenery, visiting this spectacular landscape is more like a trip to Mars. Awesome in its natural beauty, you’ll discover the wetlands of Kakadu, sleep in a swag on a cattle station seeing more stars in the sky than you ever knew possible and feel the ‘spirit’ of the land deeply cherished by the indigenous Aboriginal people. From Katherine Gorge to Uluru at sunrise/sunset, let the Red Centre work its magic on you – you’ll never forget it. East Coast: From vibrant cosmopolitan cities to beaches to die for and stunning natural wonders, this coastline is jam-packed with treasures. It’s a tropical paradise where golden sands, crystal clear waters and deserted beaches abound. Chill out in coastal towns like Byron Bay and challenge yourself to sky-dive, surf, white water raft or dive on the incredible Great Barrier Reef. Revel in city life from the upbeat glamour of Sydney to the adventure capital Cairns – East Coast cities are the most happening in Australia. Travel from the Daintree Rainforest to Fraser Island National Park, sail through the amazing Whitsunday Islands and relax at our surf camp by the sea... there’s so much to see and do. From chilled out bliss to action adventure, Contiki’s East Coast experience delivers it all and more!

INTRODUCING

Breathtaking scenery from the road

NEW ZEALAND Auckland - Wellington - Christchurch - Queenstown The North Island The North Island is a fantastic mix of stylish cities, panoramic landscapes and endless beaches. Discover Wellington, New Zealand’s capital city or go north, to Auckland the ‘City of Sails’ with its beautiful harbour. Alternatively, experience Maori country and Rotorua’s thermal craters, or take time out and stay at Lake Taupo beneath the soaring volcanic peaks of Tongariro, Ngauruhoe and Ruapehu. For the more active, sail through the spectacular Bay of Islands, swim at a secluded beach or walk in Waitomo’s glow-worms caves.

Take a jet boat ride in Queenstown

The South Island The South Island boasts possibly the most magnificent scenery found on Earth! National Parks abound with majestic mountain peaks surrounded by icy blue glaciers and separated by ancient fjords that cut deep into the landscape leaving breathtaking waterways abundant with marine life.

Unless specified, entrance fees are not included. • Experienced Contiki crew.

We have put a great deal of effort into producing this brochure. The information given and literature produced by Contiki has been compiled with care and is published in good faith. Sometimes, because of circumstances outside our control, we have to alter some excursions due to seasonal closing or repairs to buildings, etc., especially early or late in the season. If this happens, alternative excursions will be arranged.

What’s not included?

What should I pack?

Comfortable, casual clothing for day wear and ‘smart/casual’ for dining and those special evenings on the town. Remember that early or later in the season you will need warmer clothing as well as a raincoat/anorak. Please note that casinos do not allow jeans or denim clothes. A pair of comfortable walking shoes is essential. For further details, please refer to your ‘Travellers Guide’ information book.

OUR RESPONSIBILITIES 1. YOUR VACATION RESERVATION On receipt of your deposit, subject to availability and at our discretion, Contiki will reserve your place on your selected vacation. A contract is only made between you and us upon your booking being confirmed and accepted by us and our communication thereof to either you or your travel agent. 2. PRICE GUARANTEE Tour prices in this brochure are based on costs, charges, tariffs, rates, prices, taxes, levies and exchange rates as at 18th April, 2008. Should any of these costs change, a surcharge may be made on the price of your vacation. If the total tour price increases by more than 10%, passengers will have the right to cancel within 7 days of notification of the surcharge without penalty. No surcharges in respect of cost or currency fluctuations will be made once payment has been received. The guarantee excludes fuel surcharges and does not apply to any taxes, charges or levies imposed by any government or their agencies. In exchange for these guarantees, no refund will be made if costs are reduced. Prices are per person and are in Canadian Dollars unless otherwise specified. 3. IF WE CANCEL OR CHANGE YOUR VACATION 3.1 Contiki reserves the right to change or cancel your booking in accordance with operating requirements or circumstances beyond its control. 3.2 Should change or cancellation prove necessary we will give you reasonable notice thereof, in the circumstances, and where available, offer you a comparable alternative. 3.3 If an alternative is not available or acceptable you will be entitled to either a full refund of monies paid by you to us or transfer to another Contiki vacation without payment of any transfer fee. 3.4 If the change or cancellation is due to force majeure (i.e. circumstances like political unrest, war or threat of war, riots, civil strife, closure of airports or ports, industrial disputes, terrorist activity, natural and nuclear disasters, fire, epidemic or health risk, Acts of God, adverse weather conditions or other similar events beyond Contiki’s control) we will give a full refund of any monies paid to us less reasonable expenses incurred by us in respect of your booking. 3.5 Contiki is not responsible for any other travel arrangements affected due to our cancellations or rescheduling of any tour departure. 4. VACATION DETAILS AND CONDITIONS 4.1 The information in our brochure is correct to the best of our knowledge at the time of going to print (May 2008) but we cannot guarantee that any item or amenity mentioned will be available especially where we have no direct control over it. 4.2 With respect to our touring program, Contiki will do our best, at our discretion, to select accommodation, sightseeing tours and transportation to give you good value for money. 4.3 Contiki constantly strives to improve tour itineraries and features. If such improvements can be made, or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control make changes necessary, we reserve the right to vary itineraries and to substitute hotels. Contiki is not responsible for any other travel arrangements affected due to our cancellations. 5. LIABILITY 5.1 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 and when we see fit, in respect of the services to be provided and/or fees payable under your selected vacation. The payment of a deposit or any other monies in respect of your vacation shall be deemed to be an authorization for disbursement thereof as aforesaid. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES 1. BOOKING YOUR VACATION 1.1 In order to reserve your vacation, a deposit of C$200, per person per tour, or the full amount payable if booking is made within 45 days of departure from Canada, must be submitted to Contiki within 7 days in respect of that vacation. This payment is in addition to any deposit required by your travel agent. The deposit is accepted as a first installment of the vacation price by Contiki only once the booking has been confirmed in writing by Contiki or your travel agent. The initial deposit of C$200 per person must be made by credit card. 1.2 Your land reservation will be confirmed on receipt of a non refundable deposit of C$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.

Airport and ferry transfers to tour departure point. Personal expense money. Visas, personal insurance, medical fees. Some sightseeing, visits and entrance fees other than those specified on tour pages. Optional excursions and activities such as white water rafting, helicopter flights, bungee jumping, hot air ballooning, etc. • Some meals, as detailed on page 5 and individual tour pages.

Will I get more information? Upon receipt of final payment, you’ll receive a copy of Contiki’s ‘Travellers Guide’ – an information book about your holiday. You’ll also receive a comprehensive day-by-day itinerary including full details and costs of all optional excursions available on your tour. Your FREE Contiki Document Wallet* will be sent to you with your travel documents. It’s a safe place for your tickets and passports, something you’ll want to keep and use again. * Contiki reserves the right to substitute an alternative travel accessory for the Contiki Document Wallet.

How much money do I need? We recommend you carry Travellers Checks in small denominations and a credit/debit card. You’ll need to allow enough money to cover lunches, some dinners, souvenirs, shopping, drinks, optional excursions and activities, entrance fees to some attractions and evening entertainment. Please do not depend solely on a credit/debit card for cash. A full list of optional excursions and activities available along with the approximate costs is available at www.contiki.com. These will also be sent to you with your travel documents.

Seasonality and climate Being such a large landmass, Australia is prone to seasonal climate changes. This will mean that at certain times of the year some of our brochured itineraries may need to be slightly changed. For example: Northern Territory itineraries during the wet season (December to April).

How much luggage can I bring? Luggage is restricted to a maximum suitcase size of 73cm x 50cm x 25cm (29" x 20" x 10") and maximum weight of 20kg (44lbs) plus one small hand/day bag that can go on the coach with you. On tours which include Flotilla Sailing, a small bag suitable for the extremely limited luggage space is required. Your regular luggage will be stored during this time. NO EXTERNAL METAL FRAME BACKPACKS PLEASE, their bulky shape makes coach packing difficult. Contiki reserves the right to refuse to accept larger suitcases on tour. If you have your own ski/boarding equipment, you may bring one pair of boots & skis or snowboard. Otherwise, your Tour Manager can arrange these for you in Queenstown on tour. Baggage is carried at the owner’s risk and baggage insurance is strongly recommended. Remember, if your tour includes a flight you are also subject to airline baggage restrictions.
