Travel Brand Contiki Launching Run Club Tours
Trips will bring runners together as they explore European landmarks
Posted On: February 3, 2025 By :Contiki, a travel brand for 18-to-35-year-olds, is launching Run Club travel for young travelers who enjoy fitness to explore Europe while connecting with like-minded runners.
Contiki’s Run Club features two itineraries: European Highlights and European Whirl Plus. These trips combine cultural hotspots and guides with a variety of runs along sites such as the Eiffel Tower or Colosseum.
The European Highlights tour — August 25 to September 7 — includes morning runs through wine country, the French Riviera and park jogs in Amsterdam. European Whirl Plus — September 7–25 — includes jogs through Berlin’s Tiergarten, Prague’s Vltava riverside and the alpine trails of the Austrian Tyrol. Travelers will visit historical landmarks like the Berlin Wall, the Dresden Opera House and ancient Roman ruins.
“Run Clubs represent more than a fitness trend for our 18-35 audience — they’re a way to connect, explore, and build community in an increasingly fragmented, online world,” said Contiki CEO Adam Armstrong. “The appetite for active trips with Contiki is increasing as bookings on our active itineraries surged 105 percent from 2023 to 2024. Whether along the Mediterranean coastline in France or through Austria’s breathtaking Alps — group runs always emerged as trip highlights.”
