I'm not going on this one but am really envious of you. I did this holiday in Oct 2013 and it was absolutely great, I'm sure you will have wonderful time.

Thanks for your reply. I am really looking forward to it. I have been on 10 singles holidays but I have only been to Africa once before and that was to Tanzania 5 years ago.

Hi David

I have planned this trip for next September. Do write a review on your return. Are you doing the Zambia add on?

Hi there - I am booked on the South Africa trip on 9 November. I have been thinking of doing this trip for quite a while and am now looking forward to it very much. Went to Tanzania a couple of years ago which was great.

Hello Jaya

Yes I am going on the Zambia add on and I also intend to go on most of the optional trips. I think that if you go a long way on a holiday you have to make the most of it.

Hello Jenny

It's very nice to hear from someone going on the same trip. I really enjoyed my trip to Tanzania and it is one of my reasons for going on this trip. When I went to Tanzania it was almost all safari. That was great but I did feel that I had only seen a small part of what Africa is about. I am looking forward to this trip being longer and seems more varied with some safari but also seeing some cities and other attractions.

I will be travelling to Heathrow from the west midlands by coach.

Hi David

Do write a review of your trip. I too am going to do all the optional excursions on offer. Who did you travel with when you went to Tanzania? I am interested as I would like to go there one day. Going to Namibia has given me a taste for Africa - especially wild animals!!

I will try and write a review when I return. I normally find that when I return from a JY holiday I spend a lot of time sleeping. At least this time it will only be from exhaustion and not from jet lag.

It's a bit difficult to answer your question about who I traveled to Tanzania with. It is another singles travel company and I do not think it appropriate to put their name on this forum. Having read many of your excellent previous posts I realize that you are a a very experience traveler and forum user so you probably know who it was.

I am very surprised that JY do not do a similar trip to Tanzania. Particularly as Kenya is no longer an option

I was seriously thinking of going to Namibia this year but by the time I was ready to book all of this years trips were full, I will certainly be considering it in the future

Hi David

Yes I think I know which company you are referring to! Do try and do Namibia as it is a brilliant holiday. Not

surprised that it has proved so popular. I was the first one to book the May trip - I booked it as soon as I received the brochure. Hopefully JY will offer Tanzania one of these days.

Hello Becky,

Its nice to hear from someone else on this trip. This is my 11th singles trip so I can assure you that there is nothing to worry about.

I will be arriving at terminal 3 by coach from Dudley shortly after 2.00pm. I don't think we can check in in until 6.35pm. So i might see you around check in or in the lounge, look out for Just You labels.

I am going to South Africa in February so would be interested in any information regarding the trip. It is my first solo holiday so am looking forward to it very much but a little apprehensive.
