Hi

Has anyone been on this cruise. I have booked for the 4th October, but can't find any reviews which has me a bit worried 😞. Any feedback would be useful as I have never been on a cruise before.

I was just thinking the same thing! I've never done a cruise before and was considering it but would like to see some reviews first or at least a client feedback score in the brochure!

Hi I'm sure Ben can answer this one but I think this is either a new holiday offered by JY this year, or perhaps it ran just once last year. So it's not surprising that there isn't any feedback on it as only a tiny proportion of JY customers use the forum. Even a lot of the tour managers know little or nothing about it!

All the best,

Bob

PS I'm sure if JY are offering it, they have checked into the company running the cruise thoroughly and it would be well worth doing. Never come across a really bad review of a JY hol yet!

Good morning everyone,

This tour is available here this year, you can view it here:

http://www.justyou.co.uk/destinations/europe/barcelona-and-the-western-mediterranean/ 

and also on page 62 of the new brochure. The reason our Tour Managers will know little about this is that there is in fact no Tour Manager on this tour, as it is run by a cruise company, there are always plenty of staff on board to assist you throughout your holiday.

I hope this helps,

Kindest.

I think Bob was saying as a general rule the managers do not know about this JY community, the only manager I have come across that does is Sarah who was on my NZ and HKG tour..and she posts on here...it would be nice for us the clients so to speak if the reps did get a bit more involved. I do under stand its a busy job for them.

I am sure there used to be a section or I have seen it some where, where you had a small photo and a little write up about the reps, it does give us a heads up if we vaguely know what they looks like, I do understand data protection stuff if they would rather not.. Might be an ideA when your next thinking of things to fill space etc..

Hi Cindy,

You are absolutely right, I have been pushing for Tour Manager information, even just a paragraph on some of them, to be made available on the websites, this is an ongoing discussion, I'm hoping to have it resolved soon 🙂

Trust you are well,

Kindest,

Ben

Have a nice break in the Canaries, lady luck was shining on me at our Christmas party, I won an all inclusive river cruise to Portugal on the Douro so I'm off to there in April, can't wait, it will be nice to see the sun!

All the best for now,

Ben

Hi Ben and Cindy! Thanks Cindy, that's what I meant all right and I agree that it would be very helpful if more tour managers used the forum and if there was a little write-up on them. Lucky you Ben, enjoy the Duoro!

All the best,

Bob

PS Cindy, hope you're better soon!
