Hello,

Im booked to go to the French and Italian Riviera Splendour on the 11th September.   It would be good to know others that have booked this holiday.

Its the first time I have been on a solo holiday.

Hi Moira

I've just done this holiday, if you do all of the optional tours it's very busy, but I like it that way as I'm not one for lying on the beach. Of course you can choose not to do all of them, but they are worth it.

The hotel is nice and the staff lovely, if you need anything (eg a kettle) then just ask and they will find it for you. They even arranged a free mini bus to take us up to some wonderful gardens on our free day, all we had to pay for was admission, we were given a guided tour and it was a lovely few hours. 

The only downside, in my opinion, is the 'vegetarian' choice at dinner, it generally consisted of the vegetables we all had plus a fried or scrambled egg or rice, not very inspiring! I'm not vegetraian but a couple were and they tended to have a larger serving of the salad course to make up for it!

It's always a bit daunting on your first solo holiday but everyone else is in the same boat and you will soon make friends. If you have any questions about this tour then please ask, I'll be happy to answer if I can.

Enjoy yourself!

Hello Moira, 

I am booked on this holiday as well. This will be my 5th JY holiday and have enjoyed them all. You are really looked after without being smothered. The tour guides are really helpful and ensure you are not left floundering on your own (unless you want to be). Particularly for meals on excursions which may not be included. 

I have a friend coming with me this time as she wanted to have a break without having to share a room, but have found my previous holidays on my own really good. 

See you there.

Hi Moira

I'm also going on the French Riviera trip and it's also my first time.

I'm flying from London Gatwick and the driver is collecting me at 2:30 in the morning.  It's going to be a very early start to the holiday!

See you soon

Jasmine
