I want to go to Texas to see the Southfork Ranch (Sue Ellen you're nothing but a tramp!), among other things, but it's being "rested". Amsterdam - though not a cruise, all the Scandinavian capitals, eastern Canada excluding Toronto or the USA, Zanzibar. Oh I could go on!!!

Hi Julia

I have just received the Travelsphere Brochure and there is a Grand Polish Explorer which I really like the look of.  It is apparently new for this year and has flights from Liverpool which would really suit me.  Is there any chance of JY offering this next year?

Good Morning Jonah,

We are currently working on our 2018 itinerary so I really cant say at the moment.

Kind Regards,

Hi Julia

Reading everyone elses ideas, I have been saying for a long time on India with Shimla- top of my list to do. There was an Italian trip from top to bottom which I would love to do, not in brochure except for the Classic Cities which does not cover the South. Fancy America's Music Heritage next April and maybe Picturesque Portugal- never been to Portugal, if no all Italy in next brochure.

I'd love some ocean cruise options too - and am REALLY hoping for more dates for Antarctica, pretty please?!
I already have a long list of destinations/tours I want to do, but would like to add Ethiopia, Tanzania/Zanzibar and Madagascar. Having said this, the recent price increases mean that I too will have to think twice about how many Just You tours I can afford in one year or whether or not to look elsewhere, which I really do not wish to do unless it is a last resort. I am now wondering if I will ever be able to do the Chile/Easter Island tour as the price has increased a lot.

Kind regards

Hi Julia

a cruise programme would be nice, both Mediterranean and further afield

I would love to see the Amalfi Coast added. I know you already do quite few tours of Italy, but Amalfi looks very special. Travel Sphere do it, but it's mixed in with couples.
I second the comments on longer European tours. Increased airfares mean that travel costs must be making up gra larger proportion of tour prices. I know not everyone has unlimited time available, so the option to add on extra days at the end of an eight day holiday could be a good compromise.  

I've  just returned from Albi and Carcassone, to find the new brochure on my door mat. I agree with  other contributors, the price increases for some long haul tours are pretty steep.  As Bob so eloquently put it, us travellers have limited budgets, so some hard choices will have to be made.

Hi Julia it would be good to see some longer duration European Rail tours initially setting off from St Pancras on Eurostar then travelling further into Europe visiting several countries. Also other longer European tours for example maybe to some of the lesser well known parts of France. I agree with others on the forum some longer tours would be good maybe these would offer JYers better value if all dinners are included in the price. I also agree with others on the forum JY prices have shot up considerably over the last year or so my view is unless JY can absorb some of the general rising costs to restrain price hikes rather than pass all costs on to JY customers then I believe JY traveller numbers may significantly drop and that would be such a shame for all parties...

I agree with some other forum users it seems strange we can book a single place on a Travelspere tour at significantly less cost to a comparable JY tour

JuliaGood evening all,

Before I sign off for the evening I thought I would post today's Monday Musing for you to mull over...

Hopefully, for those of you who are on our mailing list, the new Just You brochure will have landed on your doormat. Now, it includes a few new tours (such as the 14-day tour of Thailand, taking in Chaing Mai, Bangkok and Cha am, there is the walking tour in the Swiss Alps and a journey though Florida & the Old South), but as you know, we launch the vast majority of our new holidays in September. As we are looking to put together some fantastic itineraries together for September, we thought we'd ask the question... where in the world would you most like to visit that is currently not covered by the the Just You programme.

Now I can pretty much guess a few destinations that will be mentioned given conversations that have been had here on the community in the past (and what's been discussed around the office at the moment), but why not share your thoughts below and we'll share the thread with all of our holiday creators.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts,

kindest regards,

Julia
