Travel Insurance - North America

More Tour and Travel Advice for the USA and Canada
Contiki strongly recommends all clients be adequately covered for Medical Insurance, Cancellation and Curtailment Insurance prior to their tour departure.
Medical and hospital treatment in the USA is very expensive and some establishments may give lower priority or even refuse people who have no proof of insurance. We also recommend that clients take out insurance coverage against loss of money and personal belongings including luggage. This should also include damage to baggage and possessions.
Travel insurance can be obtained when you book through Contiki, through your travel agent or through insurance companies themselves.

Travel insurance is awesome, last year i was on a europe tour and needed an emergency operation in switzerland to save my life and my insurance, which only cost me $125au, paid for all my hospital bills, totalling more than $7000au, paid for me to fly business class back to australia and returnd the money for the days i missed on the remainder of my trip. so i highly recommend getting insurance

For a great view of the city (especially at night) go to the top of the Eiffel Tower at Paris. It also offers a great vantage point for viewing the water show at the Bellagio.
I'm a Bondi local...it is always packed with people...if you're looking for a more chilled beach hang out, check out Tamarama, Coogee or Bronte beach, all 5-10mins from Bondi.
I went alone last summer (06). I met some wonderful people…I liked it so much, that I am going on the London + Paris trip next week (alone again).
