First time with Solitair, visitng Turkey, sailing on a gulet. All three were good choices. Met a good crowd on board (Hillary, Victoria, Di, JB, and John) with expert crew to look after us all (Skip, first mate Mosa, cabin boy Kori aka Roger). Plenty to eat (though could have had more than one bottle of water with the meal in the heat we faced) and interesting coves to explore. Certainly consider this type of holiday again - relaxing and stress free (though the airflight arrangements back to UK were problematic)

Just come back from Nile Cruise. Fantastic holiday. Excellent guide and great bunch of people. Great introduction for a first time traveller on her own.

I was new to the singles holiday scene. And as soon as I spoke to Samantha at Solitaire the positivity and the way the Xmas 2010 Leamington Spa/Warwick break was sold to me reeled me in. Well the price was good. ;)
It was noticeable that fellow Solitaire Xmas goers at Leamington were very friendly and entertaining!!! There was no age barrier! A lot of us were solitaire virgins!!
I did try to mingle with as many people as possible but when there is thirty five people to cover in just two and a bit days it's a bit tricky.
A couple of us arranged an Xmas day walk and a boxing day visit to Stratford upon Avon which was really great and such a laugh!
It was good to see that some of the guys had brought their cameras to capture the weekend's festivities.
You can always tell when you've had a good holiday when you feel sad to leave
. It was definitely the Solitaire Xmas breakers that made the experience such a great success. As the old saying goes “What you put in is what you get out.”
Thanks to the people that made the break so memorable!! ;0)

This was my first solo travelling holiday..and yes I was very nervous - but I needn't be. Once on the plane it soon became apparent that the airline had sat the Solitair group together which was fab. There was 9 of us altogether when we arrived at the boat and we all sat down to dinner. We had the same table for our group throughout the trip and all the tours were together. It was a good group of people and I made some good friends. Would recommend this trip for a first time solo traveller.

Well I had to rate it 5 as there is no 10!
I had the holiday of a life time! the cruise was fantastic! the facilities on board were great, except for 3 cabins that were allocated to some of us, which were really small and without a balcony! Still, it did not stop me from having a great time.
The service on board "Emilio|" was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble and the boat was very clean.
The company was great. It was the first time on a singles holidays for most of us and I would certainly do it again.
The highlights would have to be the afternoon we spent on a falua and went to a Nubian viallage! What a fantastic way ot soak the atmosphesere of the NIle. Another very emjoyable excursion was seeing Kom-Ombo at night and learning about acient Medicine as practised by the Egyptians.
Our guide, Yasser, an egyptologist, was a well of knowldge and made it all come to life.
I am sure the rest of the group will agree with me that it was a memorable experience.
I would like to thank everyone for making this holiday a success! Hope to keep in touch and see all the photos.
