“If you are aprehensive because you have never been on a tour before, or because you are thinking of going on your own – don’t be! This was my first tour, I went on my own and I had so much fun. Never once did I feel like I was on my own. Even on the plane, everyone from our trip who passed me on their way to their seats said hello. All of the activities and meals were so well planned and it was so nice as a vegetarian to be able to go to a restaurant and know that I could eat everything, particularly in a country where I did not speak the language. Even at the night markets, we were shown which foods would be suitable for us to eat. There were buffets and banquets, which meant we could try everything, but even when we ordered our own meal, everyone shared so you got to taste everything. We had down time too, but I don’t thinkI went many places on my own, everyone was welcoming. The activities were a good mix, some markets, shopping, siteseeing, cooking classes, relaxing and even a party cruise (I’m not sure if it was meant to be a party cruise, but with my tour group on board it became one!) Fiona and Saucy made it seem effortless, I’m sure for them it wasn’t, but for me it was easy, nothing was too much trouble.
