You will not be on your own if you travel with Just You. What sort of advice are you looking for? I have been on 2 Just You holidays and both have been great. Of course, I was a bit nervous when I booked the first holiday as was not sure what to expect. But my nervousness disappeared as soon as I checked in at the airport and met a couple of my fellow travellers. Stop thinking too much and just choose a place you would like to visit and book it. You will have no regrets.

Hi Jaya, thanks for information, I think it is just as you say making the first booking, everybody has very helpful, and as you say when you get to the airport I am sure I will wonder why I was nervous,thanks

Hello
I did my first singles holiday in 2010 with just you and had a great time, I did the train journey - Poland, Hungary, Austria and Czech. It was very busy, but I met some nice people and had a good holiday. My advice? Enjoy, make friends, you are all in the same situation. You will find yourself walking and talking with different people on the tours and during meals.

I am going to China this year, May, and really looking forward to the experience

Have a great time

Hi Sue, I am usually good at making friends ,so once I get over the first couple of days, I should find it a lot easier. thanks for the advice, I am sure you will love your trip to China, I have been a couple of times ,with Travelsphere, and the last visit ventured into Tibet amazing.

Thanks I must take the first leap into the world of single travelling.

When I started using JY there were no taster weekends my first tour was a USA one, so me personally I would book the holiday I really fancied wherever that may be, my Mum's ( she died 18 months ago) partner John went on a taster weekend and straight away booked a main tour and is on Friday going on his second tour, he said with hindsight he should of just put his money to a main tour. It is totally up to you Leo which way you want to play it, I wish you well I am sure whatever way you play it you will have fun. Good Luck.

Hi Leo

I too did not bother with taster weekend, just took the plunge and booked my first trip to Jordan. I knew that if I thought too much about going on my own, I will never do it. I looked online for single holiday companies, found Just You and booked the holiday straightaway! I always wanted to see Petra so decided on Jordan. My second trip was to Andalucia and I am going to Costa de la Luz on 22 May. Have also booked the Holy Land trip in October. Next year I am thinking of China. There are so many places I want to visit -if only I had the time and the money to do so!! I see that you have been to China, any tips would be very welcome. Go on, choose a holiday and book it. You will have no regrets whatsoever and once you are back from your first trip, you will want to go on the next one.

Regards
