Her Campus has just launched an exciting new partnership with Contiki, the #1 travel company for 18-35 year olds.  Contiki, founded in 1962 is the perfect way for collegiette’s to travel the world and embark on adventures in 46 different countries and eight regions around the world.

 

Traveling abroad with Contiki is not only safe but is affordable and the perfect way to meet new people from across the country.  Offering over 200 guided tours, you can go almost anywhere from Paris and Italy to the pyramids in Egypt or even hiking through the Amazon jungles.  Literally anywhere you could dream of wanting to go, you can go with Contiki.

 

If it seems overwhelming to plan an international trip of this size, fear not Contiki plans everything for you!  They cover everything from the flight, which hotels you stay at, what restaurants you eat and drink at, and all other accommodations for your vacation.  You even get a full itinerary that you can print out and give to whoever might want one.. (I’m talking about moms and dads here, you know they’ll want one.)  

 

One of the highlights of a trip with Contiki is the fact that you are traveling with a group but nothing too large.  Each group is around 50 people which makes it that much easier to make a friend or two, or 50 new friends for life.  Believe me, I have a friend who went on a Contiki trip last year and she still talks weekly with some of the people she went on her trip with.  

 

If you’ve already written this off because you think you can’t afford it, believe me you can.  Contiki manages to offer these trips for such a low rate because they plan them as a group trip which means they get lower rates then if you were going with a smaller group of people.  

 

HC wouldn’t be so quick to partner with Contiki unless they knew that they really were all of these things and more.  They know first hand because HC Co-founder Windsor and HC employees Taylor and Brittany just got back from a two-week Mediterranean trip traveling through Spain, Italy and France.  If that isn’t enough proof, Windsor just left for a 10-day trip to London, Paris and Amsterdam with HC Co-founder Annie and HC employee Chelsea.

 

HC is also sponsoring a contest where one collegiette will be able to experience a Contiki trip of a lifetime.  The “Have Contiki, Will Travel” contest will send the winner on a Contiki trip of their choice for FREE!  Just enter here and you only have to answer a simple question each day and by the end of February you could be on your way to your dream vaca.

 

P.s. You can enter everyday so your chances of winning are that much better!  What are you waiting for Spartan collegiette’s… hurry up and enter!

 

This is a partner post. All opinions are 100% ours.
