Making Travel Accessible for the Next Generation

Contiki, the world’s leading travel brand for 18 to 35-year-olds, has unveiled a bold new global pricing model designed to make travel more affordable, transparent, and accessible for young adventurers. As the cost of living continues to rise, many young people are finding it harder to prioritise travel — but Contiki is breaking down barriers, ensuring that life-changing adventures remain within reach.

With its new everyday low value pricing strategy, travellers can now book trips when they’re ready, without waiting for a sale. The move is part of Contiki’s ongoing commitment to help young travellers see the world confidently and sustainably.

Affordable Adventures Across Europe 2026

The benefits of Contiki’s new pricing model are already being seen across its Europe 2026 portfolio, with nearly 70% of summer departures now offered at a lower price.
