I am trying to pick up the courage to travel alone, particularly at Xmas this year as the "normal" thing is so hard to do. Would there be other people "alone"?

I love meeting people and seeing new places.

I do not travel at Christmas time but I have done many tours near and far, very safe way to travel and you get to see and do so much,great fun. Any questions just ask.

I hope if you go away you have a wonderful time

I know what it is like to be alone at Christmas, that is why I always go away! I have done Italy/Croatia, Italy/Slovenia with JY and Italy/Austria with Travelsphere over the Xmas and New Year period. I would thoroughly recommend going with JY as you are looked after so well and you will meet some interesting people. The media have already started going on and on about Christmas - and it is still September - so if you book one of the JY trips now, you will have something to look forward to at Christmas.

Cheers,

Hi Mag, I am a widower 75yrs in November,I usually go with brothers family out for Xmas but t is getting very boring,so decided to go to Vietnam,Cambodia and Laos instead while still able to travel long haul.I have been on quite a few JY holidays and are always very good.the age range is wide and I expect I will be the oldest on this one.Went to Cuba last year and had a great time.So take the plunge,you will not regret it.

Since losing my wife I have been on many Christmas and New Year holidays with JY and have thoroughly enjoyed them all. It is really great to celebrate as part of a friendly group all of whom are single. These have included France, Austria (Salzburg), Slovenia and Iceland. Really it is a matter of picking a holiday that appeals to your particular tastes and then going for it!

You will not be disappointed.

Being on your own over xmas and the new year can be pretty boring so this year I will be touring Thailand. Be brave and find somewhere you would like to go and you won't regret it as you will meet many like minded people.

So, have go, you will love it.

Hello Lonely Mag, I too am a widow, in my late 60s.  I've done two previous holidays (September 2013 and September 2014) with Just You, both successful and yes there are other people "alone" on them, friendly and wanting to see new places in company.  So now I'm taking the plunge and going away with Just You for this Christmas, to Athens.  Hoping eventually to find someone else on this board who is doing that trip.

Welcome to the club. Quite a few of us are widowed and I would recommend any of the Christmas trips. Luckily I have 2 daughters so Christmas is always a family affair. However they are busy girls and one is pregnant so do not share my holidays. That is where JY comes in. Lost count now as it is either 11 or 12 holidays and they have all been great.

Where do you want to go, choose and book, enjoy 🙂

Hello Mag. I am similar age to you and also just joined, having recently broken up with my partner and I have never been alone at Christmas before (I lost my mother in 2014). I always used to travel alone so am used to going out and about and meeting new people. But I am dreading the "normal" Christmas too so I am considering  the Bruges trip - somewhere I always wanted to go and the itinerary looks good.  Do find the courage to book something - I have been on other singles holidays before and you will soon make friends. Maybe even see you in Bruges !
