Hi srileyfridge,

I will be on this holiday, departing from London City Airport, I came here the same week last year but stayed at the opposite end of the Island. The weather was warm and sunny, I believe it rained on one or two days but on the whole it was excellent. Within an hour of checking in I was in the sea.

I enjoyed the tours especially the Sollar train ride.

Dave.

I can tell you the amount and male/female ratio of people booked on your tour if this helps?

AH ok, on another trip for solo travellers we had a list of people and where they were from which was a lovely idea and quite interesting info to have before we all met.

Srileyfridge, I think I know which company you are referring to, as I went on a holiday with them too this year and they had a list for travellers, what a great idea that is, sue

Hi this topic has been discussed a few times before on the forum and the vast majority of comments were against it - many people are very protective of their privacy and do not necessarily want others in the group to know where they live etc.  A sheet is often passed around so people can put their email addresses on it, to keep in contact afterwards, but usually a couple of people in every group do not put their names down or even put a wrong email address on purpose!  Different strokes for different folks I suppose...

Best wishes,

Bob

Hi Srileyfridge and Suer,

I have been with that company as well JY have not sent lists out since I last travelled with them a couple of years ago.

I have travelled with the company in question. The first time my daughter, who is a high ranking police officer, saw the list of names, she questioned both data security law, and security. I have like many others  have an unusual name, so it would be very easy to trace my home as being unoccupied from the list, especially as I live in what could be described as a "posh" area.  I am happy to share my first name with fellow travellers  once a tour has started.  Where I live and my family name is quite immaterial. No other company publishes a list of travellers: I feel it is quite unnecessary and have fed this back to the company in question. On subsequent tour with them I have always requested that my place of residence is left blank.

I agree with SarahS, I too have an unusual surname and if the area I live in was given out then it would be easy for anyone to know my home was empty for a week or two. I know in theory it would only be passed to fellow travellers and they would be trustworthy, but it's so easy to leave something lying about for anyone to see.

It sounds a nice idea but in the wrong hands it could go wrong. Better to get to know one another on the trip and then each traveller can give out as much or little information as they see fit.

I'd have no objections to my name being included on a list of first names and the airport we were travelling from though, I think that would be safe and may make some nervous first time travellers feel a little happier.

They did only give 1st name and 2nd name initial and town/ area where from, don't think you could be traced from that could you? so really no confidential info.  Can sort of see where you're coming from though.

Hi Bob,

The list doesn't give much away - only title (sometimes), first name, initial of surname and nearest town. Does help with remembering names though.
