Best tour company for couples?

Hi, me aged 27 and my boyfriend aged 25 are thinking about doing a tour next year... do many couples do this...??? Are some companies better than others? We were thinking Contiki but I know they have a bit of a wild reputation for younger travelers?

I think it really depends on the tour group, I'm sure lots of couples travel with Contiki and have a great time but then others not so. Where are you thinking about travelling to?

I've done two Contiki tours and both times there were couples on them. The first one was a concept tour and I felt sorry for the couple because some places was difficult for them to get a room/cabin together.

The second tour was a Time Out tour and all three couples absolutely loved it. If I were in a relationship and thinking of doing a Contiki, I'd definitely do a Time Out tour, as it's twin-share hotels.

We promote both Contiki and G Adventures on our website and both are perfect for couples. Groups are usually a mix of ages, nationalities and also singles/couples. Both companies also offer hundreds of trips all over the world with weekly departure so there is a lot of choice.
