Contiki Holidays on the Search For Legendary Travel Stories

Contiki travellers have the world’s best stories and the original youth travel brand
 is looking to take a real travel tale and give it the Hollywood treatment

 At Contiki (www.contiki.com), we know that our travellers are the world’s best storytellers. Since 1962, they’ve explored the world with Contiki and have experienced moments that have taken them out of their comfort zone and changed their lives forever. And now, Contiki is asking travellers old and new to submit their epic tales of adventure, laughter, friendship, love and #NOREGRETS for the opportunity to have their story told for the world to hear.

Whether a Contiki trip brought you to swim in the ocean for the very first time or to meet someone from the other side of the world on a trip 10 years ago who has been your best friend since, this is your chance to share how your travels as a young person changed the way you saw the world. As these stories are collected, Contiki will choose the best legends to be shared with the world through famous and iconic storytellers, with one incredible story being given the Hollywood treatment and played out by a legendary storyteller known the world over.

“Over the years we’ve had some truly amazing stories sent to us from our travellers all over the world, from a surprise wedding on a Turkish sailing trip to a family with three generations of Contiki travellers,” said Contiki Canada President, Brad Ford. “Collectively, all of these anecdotes and life-changing moments make up the greater Contiki story and it’s these real, authentic stories that continue to inspire young people to travel.”    

Travellers can head to http://www.contiki.com/contikilegends to share their legendary tale and hopefully be chosen as Contiki’s ultimate travel story.

You only have one life and one shot. Make it count with #NOREGRETS.
