What is the average age of travellers on this tour? What is the mode of transports for the local tours? Is it a minivan or taxis?

The minimum age for this trip is 15 years old, so travelers are generally aged 15 and above. You can expect a mix of ages within the group. As for transport, the included methods on this trip are: - Ferry - Private vehicle - Taxi

Could you please clarify the difference between "Standard" and "Premium" hotel options? As a 40 yr old female solo traveler planning to join in July or August, I'm curious about the typical age range of participants on this trip. Any tips for solo travelers would also be appreciated!

Standard hotels are typically at a local 3-star level. They include air-conditioning or heating, Wi-Fi in common areas and rooms, and sometimes a pool (though it's not guaranteed). Premium hotels are usually at a local 4-star level. They offer a higher level of comfort, with air-conditioning or heating (not fan-cooled), Wi-Fi available in rooms, and a pool is generally preferred at these properties. We often welcome solo travelers like yourself! While groups can vary, the typical age range tends to be between 30–60 years, with a great mix of backgrounds. Many solo travelers find it's a fantastic way to meet like-minded people and enjoy the journey in great company.

  Would it be possible to know the hotels we would be staying at and also the average ages of the other people in the group. Are there solo travelers? I am a 40 year old female and was hoping to travel with like minded people 30 - 50.
