The Early Years
Contiki was founded in 1962 by John Anderson and Gad Leshem. Anderson was a young Australian tour operator who had a passion for travel. Leshem was an Israeli businessman who had a knack for marketing. Together, they launched Contiki with a single tour from London to Paris. Within a few years, Contiki had expanded its offerings to include tours of Europe, Asia, and Africa.

Contiki's early success was due in part to its innovative approach to youth travel. Anderson and Leshem recognized that young people wanted to travel in a way that was both affordable and fun. They designed Contiki's tours to be small and intimate, with a focus on adventure and exploration. They also priced their tours competitively, making them affordable for young people on a budget.
The Rise to Success
In the 1970s and 1980s, Contiki continued to grow rapidly. The company expanded its offerings to include tours of North America, South America, and Australia. It also began to offer a wider range of tours, including adventure tours, ski tours, and beach tours. By the end of the 1980s, Contiki was one of the world's leading youth travel companies.

Contiki's success was due to a number of factors. The company's tours were well-priced, well-organized, and well-marketed. Contiki also had a strong brand identity, which made it easy for young people to recognize and trust the company. In addition, Contiki's tours were often featured in travel magazines and newspapers, which helped to generate even more awareness of the company.
The Global Travel Giant
In the 1990s and 2000s, Contiki continued to grow and evolve. The company expanded its operations to include new destinations, such as China, India, and Southeast Asia. It also began to offer a wider range of tour packages, including tailor-made tours and private tours. In 2006, Contiki was acquired by The Travel Corporation, one of the world's leading travel companies. This acquisition gave Contiki access to even more resources and expertise, which allowed it to continue to grow and expand.
