It’s travel quiz time, and boy have we got a cool prize for all you rambling backpackers out there… free transport around Europe on the Busabout Explorer, Europe’s favourite hop-on hop-off backpacker bus service
Yup, that’s FREE transport!
This month, we’re giving away the Busabout Explorer 3-loop pass valued at $1,319.00.
Busabout in a nutshell: start from any city on the loop and travel at your own pace – stay as long as you like at each stop, then when you’ve finished exploring, jump on the next bus and move on to the next destination.
All Busabout passes are valid for the entire 2007 operating season (May to October) – departures from each city are every other day. And here’s what makes them so very special:
- you can start and finish anywhere on the network
- take your time and travel at your own pace.
- take a 2 week trip in May, one in July and another in September – there are no time limits
- hop on at the hostel door – hop off at the hostel door
- every two days you will see their buses rolling though
The 3-loop pass includes the Northern Loop (Germany, the Netherlands, Prague and more) Southern Loop (Italy and Switzerland) and the Western Loop (best of France and Spain).
You can combine any 2 or 3 loops to design your ideal trip. You can stop at every destination once. You can even break a loop up and make 2 or more separate holidays. Simply fly back and start right where you began.
Not only is a great way to get around, it’s also a brilliant way to meet other backpackers and make a bunch of new friends on the road.
So, if all that sounds good to you, it’s time to answer a few travel-related questions (based on what’s been happening on the blog over the past month) and go into the draw.
Here goes:
- Which South African acoustic music festival, which made its debut in 2006, will be held in the Giant’s Castle Nature Reserve in September this year? (need a clue?)
- Which eclectic Scottish festival promises to provide a ‘heady brew of wickery shenanigans’ (here’s a clue)
- What fairytale-like castle did we feature recently in our travel photo of the week?
- Name two cities on Busabout Explorer’s Northern Loop
Easy! Now, go ahead and use our contact form to send us your answers and contact details before 18 July 2007.
Good luck, guys!
The fine print: Competition closes 18 July 2007. Prize cannot be exchanged for cash. Prize is for 3-loop pass only valid for 2007 operating season, and does not include transport to and from points outside the Busabout network. Winner will be notified by email.
