My 2018 is already planned and because so many new tours have already been offered, I am having problems deciding where to go next without having to deal with any more new tours! Despite this, it will be interesting to see what is on offer in September's brochure.

Regards

Jaya

Please advise in new brochures whether or not tours advertised on-line in the UK are available to Canadians or are we restricted to the tours offered in the Canadian brochure only.

I certainly hope the current situation will be changed.

Mildred, sorry to add to our queries ....

But, just wanted to ask whether any of the new tours in Sept would have dates for next February?  I've already booked skiing in Bulgaria for January and want to sort out a longer trip for Feb 2018 ( or possibly March).  I have a few trips I'm already interested in for this time, mostly with other operators, but it would be good to know if JY had something new in the works.

Thanks.

Katy

Hi Katy,

I'm delighted you've booked your ski trip - I remember when we first talked about launching a ski holiday and you were interested.

In answer to your query, at the moment there are no plans for holidays that will be new later this year to have departures in February.

Kindest regards,

Julia

thanks Julia for the response.  At least I know that there will not be new destinations in early 2018, and I should just go ahead and sort out what to do from what's already available.

Hi Jonah and Julia,

I agree wholeheartedly, I would love to see Oman and Dubai as a two centre holiday - I have looked at the TS Oman tour which only offers Dubai as an add-on and is very expensive for a single traveller at just £3,000 for ten days.  Also I see that TS have discontinued it for next year, I presume because of a low uptake, which is a real pity.  I do hope JY are able to source a tour that covers both places at a reasonable price!  I know it is an expensive part of the world to travel to however.  And I agree Jonah, the desert safari and BBQ would be what draws me most to Dubai - as well as the experience of just being there.  Oman offers some beautiful landscapes and more authentic Arabic experiences.

Here's hoping!

All the best,

Bob

Too late for 2018 but have JY considered Oman as a destination.  Perhaps this could be 2 centre with Dubai.  I  am always drawn to Dubai as somewhere to experience but the main attraction is the desert BBQ and it is a long way to go for one of those!!.  Watching a programme the other night which had a feature on Oman it looked a lot more appealing than Dubai with its skyscrapers.

Hi Jonah,

I will pass on your suggestion to our holiday creators!

Kindest regards,

Julia

Thanks Mildred.

I know better than to ask for precise details of new holidays, I was merely asking if there would be any completely new holidays for Asia in the September brochure.  Asia is my preferred holiday destination and I keep hoping to see Bhutan making it into the brochure one day as it is on my top destination list.  Over the years I have seen holidays given a couple of tweaks here and there, given a new title, and then put in the brochure as a NEW holiday, when in fact 95% or more is ground already covered in the original holiday, OK if you have never been on the holiday but not so good if you have.

However, my next question is - could you please tell me how many people have already booked:-

Mongolia 14th July 2018 (bit far ahead I know)

 

Burma and the Road to Mandalay  12th February 2018

                                                     26th February 2018

Also, what is the maximum group size for the Burma holiday.

Many thanks

Hi Avocet,

At the moment Mongolia is a bit far ahead and no-one has taken the plunge to be the first to book this date yet.

For Burma, the maximum group size across the combined main tour and the add on is 30. At the moment for 12th Feb departure there are 9 travellers booked (6 on the main tour, 3 on the add on) and for 26th Feb there are 3 travellers booked (all on the main tour).

Kindest regards

Julia
