    It’s a wonderful boat trip with lots of swimming, visits to ancient sites and towns. The days start very early though...

      Traveler•Written November 2022

      Initially we wanted to book this sane tour but for adults only. We are 2 couples, ages 66-74, and you said we were too old. We do not want to be on a trip with children. We are physically fit and can do the adult only trip. I am surprised you have this age limit. Can you accomodate us?

    • Explore!Operator•Written November 2022

      The trip that you have chosen is a family departure for families with Children age 7 and over up to the age of 18 years. We do have an adult equivalent trip that we can offer.
