How dreadful for the residents of eastern Australia. However, I'm concerned that our sightseeing will consist of burnt countryside and smoke filled sky. Just a thought.

Here at JYHQ, the team keep on top of world events to make sure you get the most out of your holiday.

At the moment, the only part of the tour that may potentially be impacted is the optional excursion to the Blue Mountains. The team will continue to monitor the situation and relevant contingency plans will be put in place if required.

In the meantime, our thoughts go out to those affected by the bushfires.

Kindest regards,

Julia
