I had a wonderful time in South Africa last year. My biggest regret was having so little free time in Cape Town, and only seeing Roben Island from table top mountain. I believe the tour has changed a bit for this year but I am still surprised that a visit to such an iconic place is still not offered by JY. I do hope you make it. The tour otherwise was really good. With scenery game drives and trip,to Victoria Falls it was more like three holidays in one.
Hello Gaynor,

I think you may be in luck. According to the Robin Island web site they will be adding a 15.00 departure from the 1st September (see link below).

Hi Gaynor,

I have spoken to a colleague here at Just You in regards to this - the Cape Malay Tour is scheduled to end at 12.45 and according to their website the last Robben Island Tour leaves at 13.00. Unfortunately, with transfer times, there will not be enough time to make that departure.

I apologise about this and wish you the best of time on your holiday.

Kindest Regards,

Monty

Hi Julia

Just looking for a bit of guidance, I was thinking about trying to go to Robben Island on the afternoon of day 4 of this trip, when we have a free afternoon so the last day in Cape Town. Do you have an indication of what time we would be back from the lunch and would there be enough time to go to Robben Island and back on the last ferry?

Many thanks

Gaynor

Hi Gaynor

Hi Gaynor,

In terms of numbers, there are 30 travellers booked on this trip (17 on the main tour only and 13 on the add-on). The group is made up of 9 men and 21 women with ages from early-40s through to early-80s.

I hope you have an amazing time - when I went to SA last year, I went to one of the national parks and the guide commented on how quiet our group was. I had to explain how awe-struck we were. In the UK we go to a national park and see sheep, cows and if we're lucky a few deer. In SA you go to a national park and get to see elephants, zebra, hippos - its just incredible. So, my advice is take a camera and make sure you take lots of photos these are sights you don't see everyday... but, also take the time to put the camera down and just take in everything around you.

Kindest regards,

Julia

p.s. We've spoken to the web team about the wording used on the website.

Hi Gaynor,

I was investigating this earlier in the week for another member of the community and learnt that updated invoices are only sent out when a customer requests one or there is a change to the holiday that means a new ATOL certificate needs to be generated. If you would like me to get a copy of your invoice in the post, let me know and I can get this out for you.

Kindest regards,

Hi Julia

It's ok, not a problem not to send another invoice, it's just that on the website it says updated invoice will be sent in 7 days, however as long as final details arrive nearer the time then that's great. Could you just update me on final numbers, gender split and age range for this tour. Not that long now so getting excited!

Thanks

Gaynor

Hi Julia

I have paid my balance for the above holiday Ref A****** on 22nd June as requested. I paid this using the online payment on JY site. I have noticed that a few forum users that have paid this way hadn't received their updated invoices confirming payment, I also haven't received the updated invoice and it has been over two weeks now. I can see that my account is paid in full but please could you see what has happened to my invoice.

Many Thanks

Gaynor

Hi GaynorC

At the moment there are 17 travellers booked on this date - 9 taking the main tour only and 8 travellers taking the main tour with Victoria Falls Add-on and this date has been cleared to operate.

Kindest regards,

Julia
