Hello! I am a senior majoring in Tourism Development & Management. I have had a serious passion for travel my entire life, which is why I pursued this internship last spring. I am the Field Marketing Intern for Contiki Holidays, which is the number one travel company for people 18-35 year olds. We have trips all over the world: Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Bali, Egypt, Asia, Mexico and US/Canada. The awesome thing about Contiki is that you are traveling with people your own age and from all around the world. There are 5 main aspects included in your trips over cost. The cost includes:
1. All your accommodations- tourist class hotels everywhere you go.
2. Tour Manager- Your own personal travel guide, they know everything and everyone at every destination on your trip.
3. Tour Driver- The best drivers in Europe, they take you door to door on a luxury motor coach.
4. Food- All of your breakfasts, and half your dinners are included on all Contiki trips.
5. Sightseeing- All trips have their own unique style of sightseeing, but on a Contiki trip you are taken to all the best spots everywhere you go and are guided by the most knowledgeable people in the business.
I applied for the Field Marketing Position last spring, and went through a very long interview process. Their were over 1500 applicants and only 30 college students from all over the United States were chosen. This is my dream internship and I am very happy to be working for such an amazing company.

Hey! That is great that you were picked out of such a large group to work for Contiki! Congrats! So what exactly does your internship include? Are you able to go on any trips abroad?? Contiki sounds like a safe and easy way to see the world, are the trips ever discounted for students? If they are I want to go! Hope you continue to have fun and learn about the travel industry!
