At the moment there are eight of you booked on this tour, currently all women with ages from early-forties to late sixties.

In terms of the excursions, whilst it's not available yet, we are going to try and make these pre-bookable, so you should have the option to book before you go.

Kindest regards,

Julia

Can you please let me know how many people (age range & male female ratio) are going on this tour on September 16th? I know when I booked there weren't many people booked onto it-hopefully there are now.

Do you know if I'll get the chance to book and pay for the optional excursions before I go, or do I just pay for them in resort?

Thanks

Caroline

Thanks for giving me the details of your Highlights of Tuscany post - my colleague is going to give you a call to discuss this with you.

Kindest regards

Julia

Great news about the holiday - I hope you have a wonderful time.

I am currently looking after the community while we try to find a replacement who is good enough to fill Ben's shoes - If you can give the me details of the post you are waiting for a reply to, I will look in to this for you.

Kindest regards

Julia

I'm really looking forward to it now, I've wanted to go to Lisbon for a long time, and the surrounding area looks lovely too. :)

I was wondering if JY could tell me what's happened to my other post regarding flights/hotels? I posted a new thread the same time as I replied to my previous Lisbon post, the Lisbon post appeared no bother, but I'm still waiting for a reply to my other post? Can I have an update please - thanks.

I've requested the leave from work, I'm just waiting for them to get back to me to say I can have it.

Cheers

Caroline

Thanks for getting in touch; as requested, flights times as follows:

We can offer connecting flights from Newcastle to London Heathrow from £139pp, timings as below, an overnight stay will be needed the night before due to the early flight.

I hope this is of some help,

Kindest,

Ben

Can I just ask what the flight times are for this holiday? It's just I'm still trying to get on the holiday this year, possibly the September one. I know it states the flights are from Heathrow, but I presume JY would be able to sort connecting flights from Newcastle to Heathrow and back? I know if it's an early flight going out then it would mean an overnight hotel stay, but I'd be fine with that.

Thanks

Caroline

I will look further into it nearer the time.

Not sure how easy it is to get into Lisbon from the hotel but we got the train to sintra, they are very regular in both directions and the cost is very reasonable.

Also did the same to Cascais although both trains go from different main line stations so would need to check which you need.
