  I am a 51 year old solo traveller that is interested in your Essential Scandinavia tour but see there is an age restriction. Do you allow exceptions or have an alternative for those outside that age range?

    This tour is age-restricted, as it is designed specifically for travellers aged 18–35. The restriction relates to the tour style and group dynamic, rather than fitness level, so unfortunately we're unable to make exceptions for this particular itinerary.
    However, we do offer several excellent alternative Scandinavia tours that are suitable for travellers outside this age range, including Classic Scandinavia, Complete Scandinavia, Scandinavia Explorer, and many more, all with a more flexible age profile.
    You're very welcome to explore these options on our website, and if you'd like any personalised recommendations based on your travel style, budget, or preferred pace, I'd be happy to assist.

    I'm travelling with my 25 years old daughter and I'm 62. We already booked our flights and itinerary around this trip. Please make an exception for the age as I am very healthy. I do yoga, cardio and hit classes Monday to Friday and even go to the gym 3x a week. I have no restrictions or medical conditions.

    We are not able to make an acception for this itinerary. While you are very active these trips are designed for travelers who prefer to travel with other of the same age range, there are times were we are make an acception if the traveler will be turning 36 or 37 while on trip but we cannot make an acception for anyone over the age of 38.

  Asked on March 13th, 2025

  I am just wondering how firm the age group range is. I am interested in travel but I'm 37 and my travel buddy is 25. Is there any flexibility? I ask because of I've been on tours before where they definitely had people above the age range.

    Our tours are specifically designed for travelers aged 18-35 to ensure a like-minded group experience. However, there is some flexibility for travelers just outside this range. If you will be 37 at the start of the trip, we can accept your booking.

    Also would this apply to other Intrepid itineraries as we're looking at a couple of other trips?

    Regarding other Intrepid itineraries, the same age flexibility may apply, but it's best to check with us for each specific trip.
