Itinerary

Welcome to London! Join forces here & get to know the running crew you’re about to take on Europe with. Then, we'll hit the ground running by jumping on the coach & making tracks for two weeks of adventure. Shortly before we find our ferry for France, we'll be...
Amsterdam is cute as a button & sure to win your heart with a refreshing run through Vliegenbos & Noorderpark (or just one of them if you prefer). Then the day is yours to explore as you wish. This evening, choose to float along the canal or dining on local food or both.
Holiday Inn Express Amsterdam North Riverside (or similar)
Breakfast
Out of Amsterdam, onto the autobahn and on the fast-track to uber-cool Berlin. That's on today's agenda. On the world map of cool party vibes, Berlin has a gold star. We've got two nights to explore every inch of this amazing city, and we'll kick it off with a bit of ...
Hit record on your watch. Today we’re running to Brandenburg Gate, right through the Tiergarten. Then it’s back to our hotel for a hearty breakfast. Spend the day lapping up history, scouting the Berlin Wall and dialling up your intellect at sites like the Russian War Memorial & the historic Reichstag building.
Ibis Berlin Messe (or similar)
Breakfast
"More city hangs" you'll all scream in unison as we motor out of Berlin after bolting through the Grunewald forest. Since you asked so nicely, let us present you with Prague, the darling of Europe. A drive from Berlin to Prague would not be complete without stopping i...
Rise & shine besties. Prague’s got a river (and so many spectacular sights to see). And we’ve got an early morning run to tick it all off. Then it's a full day of exploring around. Expect an entire photo album of Gothic architecture, market antiques & cheers-i...
We warned you about falling head over heels for Prague! Sorry team, you cannot live here forever. But there's no need to shed tears just yet, we're heading to somewhere even more exciting! It would seem we were born in need of some delightful Bavarian culture, we just...
We’ve got time for one last run in Munich this morning before hitting the road once again. We'll make a stop for a sobering visit to the Dachau concentration camp memorial. You'll be able to spend some time here to learn and reflect, before we head on. Ahhh, cool bree...
Step 1: Run along Hopfgarten’s picture-perfect peaks. Step 2: Enjoy a well-deserved BBQ lunch with your crew. Does it get any better? Yep. You have the chance to go paragliding this afternoon before settling down for a delicious dinner. This day deserves a crown.
Contiki Haus Schoneck (or similar)
Breakfast, Dinner
Morning! Wanna go for one last run in this Austrian beauty? Yeah you do! Afterwards, we’ll make our way to the City of Love… And just like that, we're in a new country and a whole new vibe. Fresh pasta, lilting accents & romantic architecture - we've arrived in on...
Farewell floating city, but Italy, we're not done with you yet, our next destination the Eternal City of Rome is just around the corner. We’ve been running for 11 days. So the only thing on the agenda today? Rest. Recover. Roam Rome. (And carb load with loads of pasta).
Hotel Santa Costanza (or similar)
Breakfast
Rise and shine! After an early morning run to see the most iconic sites of Rome, we'll head back to the hotel for breakfast with espresso to keep you buzzin’. Today will be a whirlwind of Roman architecture & the chance to see the Colosseum up close. The afternoon...
With antipasto, good vino and golden countryside ahead, saying goodbye to Rome doesn't feel so bad. Cast your eyes over the city one last time this morning before we hit the road, bound for Tuscany. We’ll stop off to visit a gorgeous 16th Century villa that’s now a...
Ready for a full day of all things Florence? We’ll kick off with (you guessed it) a park run - this time with the locals! Then we’ll head to our hotel for a shower & breakfast before a local guide will help us uncover the beautiful art of traditional leatherwork, ...
It's almost time to say a heartfelt 'ciao' to Italy, and hello to the land of creamy chocolate, cheese and watches. But we have one more thing to do in Italy first.... As if we were going to jump from Florence to Switzerland without a sneaky side trip to the Leaning T...
A morning run? Around Lake Lucerne? With breathtaking alpine vistas as your backdrop? Stoppp. After breakfast at the hotel, you can opt for a visit to the top of Mt. Pilatus for breathtaking views over the Swiss Alps, or take an optional cruise across Lake Lucerne for...
It's been sweet, but after an optional run this morning, our time in Lucerne is officially up this morning. We're Paris-bound! Out with the altitude, in with the inner-city bliss. We'll jump back onto our coach to cross the border out of Switzerland and (back) into Fr...
Bonjour, runners! We’ll kick off our first run on the trip with a metro ride to Jardin de Luxembourg, then sprint along the Seine, past Paris’ iconic spots (wave to Notre Dame…). And end right at the Eiffel Tower! Then it’s back to the hostel for a well-deserved brekk...
Soak up your last dose of Paris and feel the astonishment of how much you've seen. And how close you've grown to your loved-up Contiki collective. For those not leaving us until London, we'll travel south through Belgium, then cross into France to Calais.We'll make ou...
