Hi, although not going the same date as you, I have booked the Magic of Kenya for 28/09/11 so I hope you have a fabulous time. I would love to hear all about it when you return along with any tips, especially regarding clothes to take, luggage etc. Have fun!

Hi, I'm going on this holiday! Cannot wait!

It's my second singles holiday, I went to Cuba last year and absolutely loved it.

I'll see you at Heathrow, I'm travelling from Liverpool by train and getting there early in case I get lost (I usually do in the "tube" system, lol) - I'll probably be the first person there.

Do you know what meals are included on the safari, its not very clear :S I know the beach hotel is half board.

Sian 🙂

Have you been watching the news. There are talks of rail strikes, did not hear if it was main line or the underground. So keep an eye on the news for dates and have other plans sorted in time. Hope you have a safe journey and will see you in a month.

Thanks for the heads-up. It'd be just my luck for the trains to be down 😕 Yes, see you in a month!!

Hi I am also going same date to Kenya, really looking forward to it!

So I will see you at Heathrow in the lounge. I was a bit confused with the luggage info but have now decided to take 1 holdall with wheels, can't see the point of having 1 case for the beach hotel and 1 bag for the safari bit.It is also my first trip with JY.

Looking forward to meeting everybody at the Airport!!

Hi there, welcome aboard. I am taking 2 cases one bigger than the other, so I can pack my holdall in the large one and when we get there i will put the smaller case inside it for storage. That was I will have room to take back any goodies I find 🙂 I love shopping. That way my holdall is protected for the flight.

Well not long now, I can't wait.

Have a safe trip to heathrow and will see you there

Hi to one and all going to kenya soon. I did this trip in January and had an absolutely fabulous time.The food at the lodge is very good with plenty of choices. our driver was Clyde and an excellant guide on safari with plenty of animals to see.

The hotel in mombassa is also very good, lunch can be bought from the bar by the pool at a resonable cost.

clothing is best loose and natural fibres

hope you all enjoy

Hi Martcage

you will be ok with Kenyan shillings, I took about £600 and came back with just under half of it. there's not a lot of time to spend it on.

apologies for the delay in a reply, but am getting ready for my JY Prague trip on the same day you go to Kenya and I'm sure this will be the first of many JY trips for you, this will be my 4th. Enjoy.

Thank you SDW for your input, It was very helpfull. Enjoy your trip to Prague. I have been there for work, as I was a lady truck driver, everything is so cheap. It is a lovely place to go. Have fun.
