Hi New member here. I have just come across this site and I am sorely tempted in the trip to Vietnam. As it will be my first solo holiday, you will understand my reservations. Just looking for some pointers on what to expect.
I booked my first JY holiday to Texas in April last year. It was daunting travelling on my own, but when I got to the gate at Heathrow, the group was there with the tour guide, who greeted me like an old friend and introduced me to the group. Some of them said they'd been nervous about booking a singles holiday too!
On the plane, Jackie came to us each of us every few hours, to have a chat, which was great, she told us where to meet when we got to the airport, which we did and all walked to the coach together. She told us about the itinerary for the next few days and it was full on!
I was amazed with the organisation at the hotels, there was no queuing up to fill in a form and check-in. We enjoyed the free refreshments, while she checked us in and then gave us each an envelope with our room keys.
My friends think I'm brave going on holiday on my own, but on a singles holiday everyone's in the same boat and you're never alone, unless you want to be!!
