I have emailed JY twice with this question but have had no response so maybe you can help.

In the last 2 years I have been on 3 great JY holidays (Australia, China and Peru) and my destination for next year is hopefully Japan although I note that JY no longer have Japan as a destination on their web site. Is it planned to reintroduce Japan in 2014 or do you know of any other tour companies who do single traveller Japan holidays.

Thanks for your response ..... Pete

Hi Pete,

Sorry you have not had a response from your emails.

At the moment I couldn't tell you if we will be re-introducing this in 2014 - the product team are working on our 2014 programme at the moment and a selection of these tour will be in the June brochure. Our full 2014 brochure will not be available until September.

It is important for us to know where our customers want to travel so we are able to offer appropriate holidays and as such I will forward your message on to the relevant teams.

Kindest regards

Julia

Hi Pete, I'd be interested in doing this holiday a few years down the road but not next year. Japan is an extremely expensive destination - I think when JY offered it, it cost over £4,000 for around 9 days, so I'm not surprised it was dropped! I don't know of any other single traveller companies that offer it - JY has by far the widest range of escorted tours for single travellers. Some other reputable companies like Cox and Kings and VJV would offer tours there, but of course you'd have to pay the single supplement and it would be an expensive holiday. How about Vietnam and Cambodia instead? I did this tour in Feb and it was wonderful. Just a thought.

All the best,

Bob

Hi Pete

I went to Japan 2 years ago with a company based in stockport Cheshire, i think it was magical japan. They dont specialise in single travel but it was all very tailor made so i got the trip i wanted. There was not a tour guide but a local rep met me at airport with all my travel tickets ,accomadation vouchers and exerciosn vouchers and made sure i was on right bus for hotel.
