ANAHEIM, CA–(Marketwire – September 14, 2010) –  Contiki Vacations, the leader in fun travel packages for 18-35 year olds, is pleased to announce the launch of the 2011-2012 North America brochure. With two new tours and exciting trips throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico, the brochure presents travelers with more than 20 options to rock North America. The brochure is available in print and online at Contiki.com/brochures.

New trips include the Eastern Escapade, a 13-day jaunt through the major east coast highlights of the U.S. and Canada. Stops in New York, Washington D.C., Toronto, Montreal and Boston offer a great blend of action, adventure and culture. Also new to the 2011 brochure is the 12-day Rock & Soul itinerary, which includes cool cities such as Chicago, St. Louis, Louisville, Nashville, Memphis, and New Orleans.

“We’re thrilled to announce the new Rock & Soul itinerary,” says Kelly Camps-Pitre, VP of Operations at Contiki Vacations. “It takes travelers through the heart of America to experience the rhythms of the river — the music, food and people that make this region unique and popular.”

Contiki also presents a variety of options for those staying local this winter, including New Year’s Eve packages in New York, Las Vegas and San Francisco. By including hotels and New Year’s activities such as a dinner cruise with an open bar on the San Francisco Bay, Contiki offers fantastic value for the ultimate party evening.

Select west coast trips include a customized visit to Lake Tahoe during the winter season. The beauty of the lake combined with some of the best slopes in the US and the nonstop nightlife of Nevada provide three action-packed days within the Wild Western, LA to the Bay or California Highlights itineraries.
