What are my choices & how much<br />

do they cost?<br />

On each itinerary page, check out the '<strong>FREE</strong> <strong>TIME</strong>' box where there’s the full<br />

line-up of Optional Activities available. To help plan your trip and work out<br />

your budget, a complete list of all our Optionals is online at contiki.com/asia<br />

under the ’Optional Activities’ section.<br />

A complete Optional list with pricing will also come with your final documents<br />

after booking.<br />

When do I choose and how<br />

do I pay?<br />

You never know what you may want to do from day to day, so we let you<br />

decide when you’re there. Arranging and paying for your Optionals while on<br />

tour means:<br />

You’ll be able to choose what interests you at the same time as your<br />

new mates.<br />

An experienced Tour Manager can offer personal advice as well as taking<br />

care of the details.<br />

Some activities are seasonal while others are weather dependent.<br />

Payment will be made on tour and can be made by cash or travellers cheques (in $US).<br />

IMPORTANT NOTE -<br />

please read<br />

These options are authentically local,<br />

so we don't own or operate them.<br />

Some of these activities involve<br />

outdoor adventure and can be<br />

physically demanding,<br />

so there’s always an element<br />

of risk. You should make your<br />

own decisions about these<br />

activities and only participate<br />

in activities that you feel<br />

comfortable you can handle.<br />

It’s also a good idea to check<br />

that your insurance includes<br />

your participation in<br />

adventure activities.
