I had been having reservations about going away as never been on holiday on my own before either and was worried about being too young. But this thread has put my mind at rest and will be looking to go somewhere this year with JY. At 47 I now feel a little daft thinking I might of been too young after seeing the variety of ages on here 🙂 .

So thank you all for the info.

I agree with Sarah - health and fitness are more important than age - age is just a number!

Jaya

Yes I also agree it's the fitness that's more important than age, I have been out walked many a time by a MUCH older traveller...also the tours I go on I am tired and need sleep, where as some of the older! Ones stay up much longer than I do..

That's why it’s great to be able to read the reviews of other travellers (good or bad), as it actually gives you a feel for the holiday. Half the time, a bad review is just the interpretation between what you thought you were getting based on the glossey brochure description, and the actual reality of what you got! Forewarned is defintely forearmed

Here's hoping I can keep up with everyone old or young, on my next holiday!!!

There are only 67 days to go!!

I am sure you will keep up with everyone! It does not matter if you are a bit slow sometimes - that's the beauty of Just You holidays in that you do as much as you can and want to.

I think the eldest person I met was a lovely very fit man on the last Cilento trip. I think he was in his early 80's and astonished us all with his level of fitness.

I'm finding all this age talk quite depressing. On any package tour, unless geared to any specific age group you will find a wide range of ages. The common denominator for JY tour is single travellers. If age range and gender mix is of paramount importance, check before you book.

For those that have been on a JY tour it most certainly is not an issue, but for those that have not been on a tour yet, I can understand their question. For me age, gender mix, tour managers name, group size etc, is not important for others it is.
