Hi

Booked on this trip leaving in a couple of weeks time. Wondered if anyone had any tips on what to pack and how much currency to take as meals aren't included?

Should the weather still be good at this time of year?

Hi,

I went on this trip September last year and it's fabulous! Weather very hot in Phoenix and Vegas but you aren't out in it that much - hotels and coaches are air conditioned. Flagstaff and Kanab slightly cooler. Just jeans/crops/shorts and t-shirts should be fine during the day. Americans don't dress up at night so nothing really dressy although the Hotel Raddison in FLagstaff is quite up-market. Don't forget a sun hat - cowboy or other! I bought a straw stetson there. Yee-ha!

Moneywise, I think I took about £400. Meals aren't that expensive and some evening meals are included. You might want to go on a helicopter over the Grand Canyon - that's over £100 but I paid with by credit card.

I enjoyed this holdiay so much, last Sept was my second time - I also went in March 2007!

Enjoy!

Pat

Hello hjb

I'm also booked on this trip leaving on 21st Sept. Look forward to meeting up with everyone on the trip. This is my 1st JY holiday but have done many by myself before. I'm 40, how old are you?
