Please can I ask you to consider writing a review of your JY holiday when you come home? You don't need 'O' level English nor do you need to write a lot, but it would be helpful to set out the good points of the holiday and (if anything went wrong) any bad points. If you can do this fairly soon after your return, the details of the holiday will still be fresh in your mind. This would help people to decide whether the holiday would be for them and, in the case of any adverse remarks, allow JY to comment. With all the new holidays JY has introduced this year and, from Julia and Monty's hints, will be coming in for 2016, up-to-date reviews will be even more welcome.

I quite agree with this comment. I know that there was a trip for Flavour of Tuscany back in June, not seen anything about it. Would like to know about Florence and time spent there as there are only 3 Hard Rock Cafes in Italy and one of them is in Florence. I would like to know if we have enough time to buy a pin for me and a shot glass for my daughter :huh:

Best wishes,

Before booking a JY holiday quite a lot of people like to check out the Review section of the Forum. Some holidays have not been reviewed at all or else the review may be quite old, written before the details of the holiday have been altered or even be a completely new holiday.

Hi Ann,

Nice thread. I always encourage people to write a review because i find it quite enjoyable, reading their experiences both positive and negative, but remember that a lot of people dont use the forum.

I agree totally with you Ann and I too would like to see more reviews.

Jan, we had some hours in Florence on the trip when I went but of course that was a different tour. I remember seeing Hard Rock Café but can't for the life of me remember where it was close to. Sorry. Hope you get enough time and enjoy the trip and the hotel. I remember their vodka measures with great affection!

Hi Jan,

I did the Tuscany trip last Sept and yes you should have time to buy the things you want. We had a couple of hours, I think, to wander on our own, have lunch etc. if you want to go to any of the art galleries in particular, then I would do that first as the queues were quite long and many prebooked.

Have a lovely time.

I do tend to look at Feefo to see what is said in there, they can be very short reviews. trouble is some people once they are back just don't feel the need to write about their experience.

Lets hope more people will in the future.

Since doing the trip to Jordan last November (when Bob was on the holiday and wrote an excellent review so my (minimal) input was to just add one or two things that occurred to me), I've done the Cote d'Azur and the Historic East trips. Last week responded on the "share your travel tips" section to someone who is doing the Cote d'Azur trip shortly with my memories of this trip last April. Will post a review of the Historic East trip I did in June today or tomorrow. (And I really will do another for the Albi and Carcasonne trip when I get back - due to go in September.)

And I totally agree. It is always useful to read both positive (and negative if any) aspects of a trip. It helps everyone in the long run.

Also it would be lovely (if reviewers have FB) to see photos of the trip on there. I am sure Monty can offer advice on how you can do that.

We are actually looking into our social media strategy, and we are looking into sharing photos on Facebook! However, if you would like to tag the Just You page in your photos, please go ahead and they should (hopefully) appear somewhere on the Facebook page.

Kindest regards,

Monty

on my America and Canada trip ill be writing a diary ( just so I don't forget what I did in years to come!) maybe that will help in reviews but im not the grested the writer and I do like reading reviews both good and bad!

That's a good idea and one that I may also do. Will add pen and paper to my list of things to take.

It's getting closer now and have just booked Cape Cod trip.

Would you like to meet up at Heathrow? It would be good to perhaps speak before and arrange something. What do you think?
