I want to join this trip, I'm older than 39 years. I don't think this is a problem

Our 18-to-thirtysomethings tours are designed for travellers aged 18-39 years old wishing to form interpersonal connections with travellers around their age, while visiting a new destination. Travellers must be 39 years old or younger (but at least 18 years old) as of Day 1 of the departure date of the tour. Our other travel styles, such as Classic, Active, National Geographic Journeys, etc., do not have any age restrictions.

We are aged 72 and 80. We have visited India several times but never Goa or Hampi. Do you have any tours that would be suitable for healthy travellers of our age group?

Im sorry we dont have any trips to those destinations in our classic range of trips, which are open to any age group

I had a fantastic experience on the Essential India tour with G Adventures, made truly special by our amazing guide, Shailendra. He was incredibly knowledgeable and brought every destination to life with interesting stories and insights. Beyond that, he was organized, supportive, and always made sure everyone felt comfortable and included. What I really loved about this trip was the itinerary. It covered the classic highlights of India, but also included more unusual, off-the-beaten-path places that made the experience feel unique and authentic. What stood out most was Shailendra’s positive energy and genuine care for the group. He really went above and beyond to make the trip unforgettable. He is a huge asset to G Adventures!! I highly recommend this tour and if you get Shailendra as your guide, you’re very lucky!Show more

  Why is this trip so much more expensive
- G AdventuresOperator•Written November 2025
  When comparing the two tours, the 18-to-thirtysomethings has less inclusions in terms of optional activities. It is also 2 nights shorter so the longer 'Classic' tour has two extra nights of accommodation and extra days of the tour which would also increase the cost. The 18-to-thirtysomethings is considered 'basic' level of service and the 'Classic' tour is a slightly higher level of service at 'standard'
