Apart from handing over your email address, The Contiki Travel Lounge is free to join. You’ll have to provide your email address regardless if you join the Facebook group or the mailing list. Once you’re a member, you will get access to Contiki trip drops, safe travel updates, and monthly mystery trips with savings up to 40% off standard prices.
You can even get your hands on some exclusive Contiki merchandise, such as sustainable water bottles, T-shirts and tote bags!
According to a recent Voice of a Generation survey conducted by Contiki in early 2021, sixty-seven percent (67%) of respondents from around the world stated that they would book a mystery trip, even if it meant not knowing where they were going until the day before.
So if these numbers are true, then the monthly mystery trips will be hugely popular with Contiki passengers – especially if you can save 40% off the tour price!
Should you join?
Honestly, it’s really going to depend on your personality and travel style.
If you’re an adventurous traveller who isn’t scared to explore new destinations without much planning, then you probably won’t get much benefit out of it. But if you prefer to know exactly what you’re getting yourself into and need a solid itinerary and connections, then joining Contiki’s exclusive community is a great option.
At the end of the day, joining the Contiki Travel Lounge is totally free and you can easily opt-out from their marketing emails or remove yourself from the group at the click of a button. But with exclusive 40% off mystery trips every month and exclusive Contiki gear on offer, why not try it out. What have you got to lose?
Mystery trips are there for the most adventurous travellers who are happy to take advantage of an exclusive deal while also being the first out there – wherever that may take them.
