Itinerary

Welcome to Lyon! We'll meet and greet in France's 3rd largest city today, but won't hang around too long. It's the Château life for us, Contiki fam... Heading into the gorgeous Beaujolais wine region, we'll arrive at our palatial accommodation for the weekend, the iconic Château by Contiki. For decades this exclusive property has wowed Contiki travelers with its elegant stylings, lush surrounding vineyards – and of course, some of the most legendary pool parties ever. There'll be a champagne welcome waiting for us, naturally, then after enjoying some fizz we've got a evening of cultural activities awaiting us.

Our sip n sketch painting evening will let us explore our artistic side as we soak in the beautiful views, while sipping some world class wine, obv. After an included dinner it's time to keep the party alive in La Cave, our Château's exclusive party spot (with a DF, obviously). Ready to show off your best moves? (D) Stay: Chateau de Cruix (or similar)

After a first day of fun and laughs, we do it all again! Have a gentle morning with some group yoga overlooking the vineyards, then prepare for an active afternoon in the hills of the Beaujolais region, where we'll head out for a hike & picnic. Back in the Château, we'll cool off (and spice things up) with a pool party - complete with games and tunes.

Afterwards, we'll tuck into yet another fantabulous feast followed by evening beverages. (B/L/D)

All good stories must come to an end and it's time to say goodbye to the fairytale of the Contiki Château… But maybe the real moral of the story was the friends you made along the way? Don't forget to swap details and say ‘adieu' until another time! (B)
