I have just plucked up the courage to book my first holiday alone (since being widowed). As I will be feeling very nervous I would love to hear from anyone going on the same trip.

Hi Sue

I am going on the Treasures of Andalucia Tour in a couple of days time - Wed 24th Feb. As we must live near to each other , I can let you know what it was like when I get back, if you like.

Sue, I had a great holiday. It was a big group, 45, everyone was friendly. Age range 27 to 90! Met some lovely people. Went on all the trips and saw some beautiful and interesting places. Tour guide, Claire did a fantastic job. Was a little disappointed with food at Mijas Hotel, but otherwise all good. Let me know if there is anything specific you would like to know.

Hello again Karen

Did you go on the Alhambra Palace trip?

If so what did you think, I wasn't going to but the trip seems very popular. Also did you go from East Midlands and did you meet the tour guide their. Just realised, I typed in the heading to my message that I going on 22 June must be my nerves getting the better of me as I'm going on the 16 June !

Best wishes

Sue, I did fly from East Midlands -its a really easy airport to negotiate as it is small. I put my Just You luggage label on my hand luggage , in the hope that I would be spotted by a fellow traveller but that didnt happen! We were met at Malaga by Just You rep and I had become friends with the 6 people on our flight by the time we got to Mijas. One tip - have £10 on you to pay at airport check -in (this may have been sorted by the time you get there, but just in case). Visit to Alhambra was my main reason for going - I was a little disappointed as it is difficult to get a sense of the size and age of it all -I had expected to be awe inspired but it was a lovely day out, lovely gardens and sense of history and the meal a group of us had in the square in Grenada was a highlight of the trip.

Hello again Karen

Thanks for the tips about the airport. I haven't received any response about my trip on 16 June so looks like I won't meet up with anyone else until I get to Malaga. Incidently where in Nottingham do you come from ?

Best wishes

Hello Karen

Still not read on the message board from anyone else going 16 June - hope I'm not the only one.

I leave at Forest Park between Hucknall and Bulwell.
