Hello
I'm so sorry to hear about your wife. I know what a big step it can be to book your first single holiday but you may find it reassuring to read some of the other messages here on the Community from people who have also lost their partner.
Our Vietnam trip on 1 October is proving very popular. So far 27 people have booked that holiday and there are eight places left.
Kind regards,
Olly, your editor
Hi I booked today for the trip on 1st Oct so I hope all will be OK
Hi Young Seventy
I have today returned from the Vietnam trip but I also added on Cambodia. It is an amazing experience and you won't regret booking it. There were several people over the age of seventy in our group and the remainder made up with all ages. Everybody got on so well and the older ones had more stamina than some of the younger ones. Make sure you take light clothing and comfortable shoes. The hotels are great, all with air conditioning, you will have a fantastic time.
Kind regards
Iris

Hi Max
I'm not going to give too much away and spoil the surprises that you will get on this wonderful holiday but take your swimming costume with you and of course your camera with a large memory card in it, there are so many things to photograph. Hat and sunglasses as the sun is very hot and the light very bright.Suntan lotion and mosquito spray. Imodium or similar just in case of tummy upsets.You only need dollars to spend, I found using the Vietnamese Dong very confusing, there are too many noughts on the end (unless you are an accountant and can cope with lots of noughts)!
I don't think I've given anything away but hope the tips help.
Have a wonderful holiday.
Kind regards
Iris
